TUPAC – A Rare Video You Probably Never Saw. #PacsBirthday via @lisafordblog
The Tupac biopic, "All Eyez On Me", directed by Benny Boom, dropped today to commensurate the legacy the iconic rapper. The filma also served as birthday gift to his fans as Pac's birthday is today, June 16th (Pac would have been 46 years old). I'm a die-hard fan and I'm personally nervous about watching the film because I hold a very nostalgic view of Pac that I don't want ruined (even though I don't think that's possible). In previous blog posts, I did publish the…

TUPAC Freestyling Over Snoop Dogg’s ‘Gz and Hustlaz’ (Rare Video) #RIP
20 years ago we lost a special soul, Rapper, Actor, Poet, Revolutionary, ICON, TUPAC SHAKUR. 2Pac is the reason why I even have this blog as his influence on me has given me courage to follow my dreams. Writer Kevin Powell says Tupac is more than a rapper. "When we think about Tupac Shakur ... not just in hip-hop but popular culture, in America and globally, you have to think about Elvis Presley, James Dean, Marilyn Monroe, John Lennon, Bob Marley," Powell says. "It's that…

TUPAC Freestyling on the Streets of New York, Runs into Music Bootleggers (Rare VIDEO) via @lisafordblog
My mother says every time she checks out my blog she sees TUPAC! Yes Ma'am! And today's post is dedicated to this rap legend because Pac would have turned 44 today if he wasn't gunned down in Las Vegas over 18 years ago. Pac will always be a dominant feature on this blogspot because in my opinion, he is the #1 Pioneer of Hip Hop. Couple that with the fact that I'm still in mourning over his death. I will never get over 2pac because…

BIGGIE SMALLS – “Party & Bullshit” (Original Video 1993) @LisaFordBlog ‘s IPOD Pick
As a Hip Hop head, I know you already have BIGGIE's 'Party & Bullshit' in your music catalog. In my opinion, this is Biggie's best song. It epitomizes delivery, BIG's deadly flow, and flawless timing. Believe it or not, this was his first track ever which was released as the fourth promotional single for the soundtrack to the 1993 film 'Who's the Man?'. The irony? ... The best way to describe most of today's music is this song's title. ;-) R.I.P B.I.G. He would have…

SUGE KNIGHT Says Diddy Is A Bitch & 2PAC Is Still Alive! (VIDEO)
SUGE KNIGHT says all fingers point to Diddy if TUPAC was actually murdered, but deeply believes that PAC is still alive. What else is still alive? The bad blood between Diddy and Suge, and what Suge calls "Hollywood" rappers. As we see nearly 20 years later, the "Who murdered 2Pac" saga still continues and is one that will never die...until the world, and fans like me get an arrest and the TRUTH of what really happened the night of September 13, 1996. Is there any…

Tupac Shakur’s Former Bodyguard, Frank Alexander, Found Dead With A Bullet To His Head.
Here is another piece to the 'Who killed TUPAC' puzzle. As members of the Hip Hop community, it's up to us to get down to the bottom of this murder. We can't accept "cold cases" in the death of our influential young poets because that would solidify the status quo, that killing one of 'us' is no big deal. And 2Pac's former bodyguard, "Big Frank", the one who was suppose to be guarding Pac the night of his death, may have taken some secrets to…
