| 內容簡介： |
A passionate, critically incisive biography of one of the most
influential rappers of all time, Tupac Shakur, and how he came to
dominate hip-hop in the 1990s In 1996 Tupac Shakur, a talented
rapper and actor, was murdered in Las Vegas. No one has ever been
arrested for the crime. Tayannah Lee McQuillar and Professor Fred
L. Johnson examine Tupac''s story, from his family roots in
Lumberton, North Carolina, and Virginia through his meteoric rise
to fame and tragic fall. Shakur was a hero to the poor, the
imprisoned, the hopeless, and the voiceless. But there was another
side of him, revealed as his life spun out of control, as the
whispered warnings from friends went unheeded and the denunciations
of critics grew louder. His death ended an era when American
rappers used their art to speak the truth to corporate, government,
and judicial power.
