In statement released to Billboard, Tupac’s mom, Afeni Shakur, vowed to continue her son’s legacy by sharing his “entire body of work,” including the unfinished ideas.
Shakur’s mother, Afeni Shakur, head of his estate and founder of the Tupac Amaru Shakur Foundation, said in a statement, “I believe it is our responsibility to make sure that Tupac’s entire body of work is made available for his fans. My son left many incomplete pieces and even more unfinished ideas. Using the blueprints he gave us, I am committed to fulfilling this duty.”
I should add that Jampol Artist Management is in charge of “Tupac’s estate.”
“It’s our responsibility — and our privilege — to ensure that new generations of fans experience the power of Tupac’s music, his ideas and his storytelling,” Jampol said in a statement.
Afeni Shakur noted Jampol “will find innovative ways to continue to keep his music, his message, and his legacy alive.
In my opinion, Tupac’s legacy is already larger than life. He was even brought back as a hologram for a brief moment to share the stage again with Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre at Coachella. If that’s not keeping a legacy alive, I don’t know what is. It’s understandable to want to share the music that people haven’t heard yet but is it the same if the rapper isn’t releasing the records himself? Leave your thoughts in the comments below.
