Tupac Amaru Shakur nació el 16 de junio de 1971 en Harlem, Nueva York. Su madre, Afeni Shakur, y su padrastro, Mutulu Shakur, eran miembros activos del movimiento Black Panther, lo que influyó considerablemente en la formación del joven Tupac. Desde temprana edad, mostró un notable interés por el arte y la poesía.
La familia Shakur se mudó con frecuencia durante la juventud de Tupac, lo que le expuso a una variedad de experiencias y culturas. Finalmente, se establecieron en Baltimore, Maryland, donde asistió a la Baltimore School for the Arts. Allí, Tupac estudió actuación, poesía, jazz y ballet, y destacó por su talento artístico.
Tupac ingresó al mundo de la música como MC New York en el grupo de rap Digital Underground en 1991. Su participación en el álbum "This is an EP Release" y más tarde en "Sons of the P" allanó el camino para su carrera en solitario.

Check Out Time by Tupac Shakur [George Clinton speaking]
The blind stares
of a million pairs of eyes
lookin' hard but won't realize
that they will never see
the P
(You must be goin' blind)
(Tupac)
give me my money in stacks
and lace my b**ches with 9 figures
real niggas fingers on nickel plated 9 triggas
Must see my enemies defeated
i'm cashin'
while they coughed up and weeded
open fire
now them niggas bleedin'
see me in flesh
and test
and get your chest blown
straight out tha west, don't get blown
my adversaries cry like ho's
open and shut like doors
is you a friend or foe ?
nigga you ain't know ?
they got me stressed out on Death Row
i've seen money
but baby I got to gets mo'
you scream and go
'2Pac'
and I ain't stoppin'
till i'm well paid
bails paid
now nigga, look what hell made
visions of cops and sirens
niggas open fire
buncha Thug Life niggas on tha rise
until I die
ask me why i'm a Boss Playa gettin' high
and when i'm rollin' by
Niggas Can't C Me
(Chorus -- G. Clinton)
The stares of a million pairs of eyes
and you'll never realize
You can't C Me..
(Tupac)
Been getten worried that these square muthaf**kers with nerves
sayin they can get with us
but picture me gettin' served
My own mama say i'm thuged out
my sh*t be bumpin out tha record store
as if it was a drug house
my lyrics bang like a Crip or Blood
nigga what ?
It ain't nothin but a party when we thug
and there I was
a young nigga with heart
ain't had sh*t to loose
pullin' my pistol on them fools
you know the rules
D-R-E you got me heated
my words like a penatentary dick
hittin' b**ches where it's most needed
money and weed
Alazay and Hennesse
To my Thug niggas in lock down
witness me
bail on these ho's in floss mode
tha life of a Boss Playa
f**k what ya thought tho'
my enemies deceased
die like a b**ch
when my album hit tha streetz
Niggas Can't C Me
Niggas Can't C Me
(G. Clinton)
(Which way did he go George)
(Which way did he go)
(Which way did he go)
(Which way did he go)
(Tupac)
You niggas made a mistake
you shoulda never put my rhymes with Dre
them Thug niggas have arrived and it's Judgement Day
Hey Homie if ya feel me
Tell them tricks that shot me
that they missed
they ain't killed me
I can make a muthaf**ker shake
rattle and roll
i'm full of liquor
thug nigga
quick to jab at them ho's
and I can make ya jelous niggas famous
f**k around with 2Pac and see how good a niggas aim is
i'm just a rich muthaf**ker from tha way
If this rappin' bring me money
then i'm rappin' till i'm paid
i'm getten green like i'm supposed to
Nigga, I holla at these ho's
and see how many I can go through
Look to the star
and visualize my debut
niggas know me, playa
I gotta stay true
don't be a dumb muthaf**ker
because it's crazy after dark
where the true Thug niggas see ya heart
