S1 Ep7: Tupac Shakur

Tupac Shakur is widely regarded as one of the greatest rappers of all time. Born Lesane Parish Crooks, his mother would rename him Tupac at the age of one - he died at just 25, but during his short life he became the voice of a generation. Join Stephanie Okupniak and find out how Tupac Shakur went from hustling on street corners to conquering the world of rap. In this episode documentary maker and Tupac's friend Gobi Rahimi talks of Shakur's political ambitions, his prolific writing and spending days at Tupac's bedside following the Las Vegas shooting.  We couldn't make this show without the support of our sponsors Audible and Hello Fresh.
