Tupac Amaru Shakur nació el 16 de junio de 1971 en Harlem, Nueva York. Sus padres, Afeni Shakur y Billy Garland, eran miembros del Partido Pantera Negra, un movimiento revolucionario que luchaba por los derechos civiles de la comunidad afroamericana. Este entorno radical influyó profundamente en la vida y obra de Tupac.
De joven, Tupac demostró un talento excepcional para las artes escénicas. Asistió a la Escuela de Artes de Baltimore, donde estudió teatro, poesía y ballet. Allí conoció a Jada Pinkett, una amiga cercana que más tarde se convertiría en una destacada actriz de Hollywood.
En 1991, Tupac comenzó su carrera musical como corista del grupo de rap Digital Underground. Su talento rápidamente le permitió lanzar su primer álbum en solitario, 2Pacalypse Now, en 1991. Este disco causó controversia debido a sus letras cargadas de mensajes sociales y políticos.
En 1993, Tupac lanzó su segundo álbum, Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z., que incluía éxitos como I Get Around y Keep Ya Head Up. Este álbum consolidó su lugar en la industria musical y le otorgó un estatus de estrella.
A medida que su carrera musical crecía, Tupac también incursionó en el cine, protagonizando películas como Juice (1992) y Poetic Justice (1993) junto a Janet Jackson.
Tupac no estuvo exento de problemas legales. En 1994, fue acusado de abuso sexual y posteriormente sentenciado a prisión. Sin embargo, su influencia y popularidad no disminuyeron.

Hahaha, Jon B
Bring it on now
Let 'em feel where you coming from
Let 'em feel where you coming from
Only the ladies, only the ladies
[Chorus: Jon B & 2Pac]
Girl, it's alright, baby
Are you still down for me now?
'Cause it's there in your eyes, yeah
Are you still down for me?
I can see that you want me
Are you still down for me now?
By the way that you smile
Yeah, are you still down for me?
[Verse 1: Jon B]
Left once again at home, another night on your own
Ain't no fun if in love if you’re loving alone
How does it feel to be useless (All night, tell me)
Can you recall how close we use to be then?
Can you still remember those feelings again?
Seem like every time I see you there's a tear in your eye (What you crying for?)
Time to make some decision or go dying inside
[Verse 2: 2Pac]
Tell 'em all, call me fool but I'm stuck
It's a love thang, plus I'm overheating from the rush
Our tongues touch, kiss and feel the fireworks, watch the sky
I'll make you smile but you'd rather have what makes you cry
Say goodbye and I'll leave now
With my heart on my sleeve, memories down
What I found is you still care, you had feeling and they still there
Baby girl, keep it real — are you still down?
[Chorus: Jon B & 2Pac]
Girl, it's alright, babe
Come on, are you still down?
'Cause it's there in your eyes
Yeah, it's in your eyes
I can see it in your eyes
Are you still down?
I can see that you want me
Don't cha want me? Don't cha want me?
Are you still down?
By the way that you smile, ha-ha-ha, yeah
Are you still down for me?
[Verse 3: Jon B]
Remember that evening (Yeah, are you still down?)
I know that you were too scared to go all the way, please
But you did it to please me
Crying it was raining when you gave it to me
The more I see the more I feel inside
And I know one thing I'll make it back to where you can fly
Watch the time go
Don't cry tomorrow is a better day
(Whatcha cryin' for?) Let me dry your eyes
Take your burdens away…
[Verse 4: 2Pac]
Only once in a lifetime, touch my soul
Go slow, baby boo, don't rush the flow
Got me all weak, baby, but I'm strong in parts
With more bounce to the ounce with the longest parts
Give me mine like fine wine measured in time
Maybe the other brothers loved you but the pleasure was mine
Mama taught me how to love a woman, poppa was sprung
We committed so I hit it and it's properly done
[Chorus: Jon B & 2Pac]
Girl, it's alright, babe
Come on, come on, are you still down?
'Cause it's there in your eyes
It's in your eyes I can see it in your eyes
Are you still down?
I can see that you want me
Don't cha want me? Don't cha want me?
Are you still down?
By the way that you smile, ha-ha-ha, yeah
Are you still down for me?
Girl, it's alright, babe
Come on, are you still down for me now?
Cause it's there in your eyes
It's in your eyes I can see it in your eyes
Are you still down?
I can see that you want me
She want you, Jon, she want you
Are you still down?
By the way that you smile
She got smile, look...
[Outro: 2Pac]
Baby, are you still down
Are you down for me?
Baby, are you still down
Still down for me?
Baby, are you still down
Are you down for me?
Baby, are you still down
Still down for me?
