Tupac Shakur
Summary:
As a young child Tupac lived with his mom and sister, were his dad left him and didn’t have him in his life. He lived in Baltimore were his mom worked hard and became a member of a Black panther. Growing up Tupac was enrolled in a lot of art and theater classes when he went to a high school in Baltimore, there Tupac learned how to make his music and be the man he was. When Tupac’s mom got addicted to crack cocaine, Shakur decided to move out west, California, were he became a rapper legend. After making his first big album, 2 Pacalypse he was an overnight superstar, but not all good things came. Tupac got involved in gangs were he would become one of the biggest thugs in the west side. Many people thought Tupac was a thug and should be put to jail but in truth, he was raping the sad truth that was happening in the ghetto areas of California. Eventually Tupcas rough life of being a thug made him 6 feet under.

Review:
If you enjoy music and the history of it, Michael V. Uschan did a great job showing the life, work, and history of Tupac. He showed all the lows he went through to becoming the best rapper ever. You really cannot compare yourself to Tupac because he’s lived such a rough life, but you can compare yourself to him by overcoming the problems in your life just how Tupac did. Overall this is a very great biography of Tupac Shakur, my grade that I would give this book is an A-. Anyone who enjoys music should read this great biography of Tupac Shakur.
