Tupac Shakur dies
Hip hop star Tupac Shakur dies on September 13, 1996 of
gunshot wounds suffered in a Las
Vegas drive-by shooting.
More than a decade after his death on this day in 1996,
rapper Tupac Shakur remains one of the most recognizable faces and voices in
hip-hop. A steady stream of posthumous album releases has kept his name near
the top of lifetime sales rankings, and artistic efforts like the 2003 film Tupac:
Resurrection have kept his image and music current among fans who were far
too young to have seen and heard him perform while he was still alive. His
recording career came to an end with his death at the age of 25, but like
another famous rapper with whom his story is intertwined, Shakur has only grown
in stature with each passing year since his still-unsolved murder.
