Tupac Shakur is still the one of the most prominent rappers of our generation. Over two decades after his death, his legend still lives on not only in the hearts of his fans, but in the music still being created today.

His gritty lyrics were inspiring and mesmerizing, and he has been idolized by millions of fans across the globe.

Like many others, Tupac did not have it easy growing up, but he struggled and fought for his dreams and his success. Before starting his music career, he studied theater at the Baltimore School of the Arts and idolized Shakespeare. He used his own inspiration from the stories that Shakespeare told to create songs that resonated with each and every one of his fans.

Tupac had a strong, underlying purpose for what he represented and believed. He was, in his own way, an activist that pushed for social change; he was mainly motivated by his upbringing and the kind of injustices and issues he faced growing up. He was an icon that stood for WAY more than just his music, which is why his music and his words will live on.

Tupac proved again and again that no matter what kind of adversities you must face in the past, present or future, as long as there is a strong will to push forward and rise above, you will not be defined by them. Your circumstances do not define you — your character does.

Tupac Quotes

Where There is a will, there is a will to search and discover a better day. Where a positive heart is all you need to rise beyond and succeed. Where young minds grow and respect each other based on their deeds and not their color. when times are dim, say as I say, “Where there’s a will there’s a way!" — Tupac Shakur
