TUPAC SHAKUR and THE NOTORIOUS B.I.G. MURDERS: Shocking Murders of the Rap Music Scene

TUPAC SHAKUR and THE NOTORIOUS B.I.G. MURDERS: Shocking Murders of the Rap Music Scene

A.A. Christiansen
3.7/5 ( ratings)
TUPAC SHAKUR and THE NOTORIOUS B.I.G. MURDERS: Shocking Murders of the Rap Music SceneIn his short life, Tupac Shakur became a figure of heroism in the world of hip-hop. Despite rap culture's association with violent and aggressive living, Shakur preached that the hardships of the street-lifestyle were something that could be changed if feuds and disagreements were solved without violence.
Shakur's life would come to a tragic end in September 1996. An unknown perpetrator fired at Shakur from a vehicle as he was parked up on a Las Vegas sidewalk. He was rushed to hospital but would succumb to his wounds six days later. He was only 25 years old.
While Shakur was the prominent face of the West Coast hip-hop scene , the East Coast scene was fronted by fellow legendary rapper Christopher Wallace, aka The Notorious B.I.G.
In February 1997, Christopher Wallace was shot at on the streets of California by an unknown perpetrator. In a very similar manner to Shakur, his killer pulled up alongside Wallace's vehicle and fired four rounds into Wallace's chest. Thirty minutes later, Wallace was pronounced dead. He was 24 years old.
This is the story of rap's murder problem, and the violence and aggression that have plagued the genre for decades. With two of its brightest stars cut down in their prime, this book uncovers the seams of murder and violence underpinning gang and rap culture.
