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.

Boy!
In eighty-eight
[Verse 1: 2Pac & Ace Rocker]
Ayo, don't want to diss you, but your girl's a freak
All in my face, every time I speak
And if she's not following me, or in my face
Then she's clockin' and jockin' my homeboy Ace
Making you look bad, 'cause the girl is hot
Spending all your money, every chance she's got
Gave all your gold rings off your hand
But she gave it all up to another man
'Cause your girl is skeezer, I swear she is
Bitch said she was a virgin, but she got three kids
First, she kissed Ace, then she sloughed me down
Don't want to diss you, but you got the fastest girl in town
All in my pants, every time we dance
Tried to stop her, homeboy, but she got quick hands
There's no easy way to tell ya
But short and sweet, don't wanna diss you but your girl's a freak
[Chorus]
I saw your girl
Yeah man, I seen her man walking down the avenue
His girl, ain't that something?
Yo D, I saw your girl
Word man! It was ridiculous
I can't believe you let that go on
It's crazy to me, but yo, I ain't finished, check this out
Yo
[Verse 2]
I saw your girl, that freak is hot
When we closed that show, everything she's got
Making people stare, when she goes somewhere
When she walks, people talk but your girl don't care
I saw your girl real late one night
Had on a see-through blouse, and her pants were tight
Walked in a club and began to dance
By ten had a nigga all in her pants
You say she's devoted, but that's not true
If she's devoted, she certainly not devoted to you
I know it's your girl, so I say freeze
But I'm too late 'cause she's already on her knees
Slip, slurp and slop from bottom to top
Like Maxwell house, good to the last drop
Not tryna hurt you, bro, just lettin' you know
That your girl is a goddamn ho
[Chorus]
I saw your girl
Yep, it was her, no doubt about it
No mistaken identity, it was his girl
(What's up, man)
Yo D, didn't you see him too? (Yep!)
Word!
You know what man, I saw your girl
Tell him D, you seen her?
Don't hide it, just say it man, word
[Verse 3]
I saw your girl, once before I was chillin' at a party
Look across the dancefloor, your girl came in with somebody
So I thought I'd go see, she takes the D
This is Billy he came with me
I saw something Billy requested, and your girl suggested
If we would go to her house, was I interested?
A thought went into my mind of agony and much fear
But damn it's not my girl, so how the hell I care!
I saw your girl, she's a skeezer and she's jockin' me down
Who knows, suppose she has AIDS and she spreadin' out round?
By her close and she knows, that you're a clown
You smile and pose and she goes with every man in town
Think your girl is crazy, but she insists
That if I treat her like a leprechaun, she grant me a wish
If I try to get close and sneak her a kiss
This is supposed to be your girl, but all you do is get this
I think your girl is crazy but she get dissed—
Now I'm back to the party wit' your girl and Billy
You invited him to go to her house, she think you Willy
And then she leans over and says I love you
You still pretending she's your girlfriend and she loves you too
Then I couldn't find them, they were out of sight
So I thought to myself, damn this ain't right
'Cause she playin' on my boy, and it was plain to see
If it was my girl, I would want him to tell me
I called him up and told him everything he didn't wanna hear
He cursed me out, call me a liar and a [?] in my ear
You hope you learned your lesson, the more you know it
He's gettin' mad 'cause his girl's a ho
[Chorus]
I saw your girl
Ayo man
Saw your girl
Yo for real man, that was crazy
I saw your girl
Word is born, man that was crazy man
I saw your girl
He let it go on though, man, it's his fault
Yo, I saw your girl!
