Tupac Shakur engineered a plot to fake his death. Some of the main characters are Suge Knight, who had the money and the connections, Mike Tyson, Orlando, the guy Tupac allegedly had a scuffle with before he was shot and.....
Tupac and Tyson were tight. Tupac wrote quite a few songs in Tyson's honour. For instance, AMBITION AS A RIDER. Infact, this was Tyson's entry song on the night of the fight. Tupac purportedly died September 13 from gun shot wounds inflicted on the 7th.Tysons fight was supposed to be July 13, but he backed out days before saying he was ill.
Orlando was unemployed and lived hundreds of miles from Las Vegas. He had no valid reasons to be there that night. He said he was there to gamble. How could he afford ticket to Tyson fight and gambling if he was not working. Suge who was implicated in the scuffle was on parole.
Initially, Orlando pointed him out as one of the men who battered him. However, when the court ruled that Suge's involvement constituted a parole violation which could land him in jail, Orlando said Suge tried to protect him and did not hit him. at all.
After Pac was allegedly shot, Suge spun the car around and drove away from the nearest hospital to another one which was miles away. Remember he had a dying man in the car. Not to mention 13 rounds were fired, yet Suge who would be a witness, was only grazed by flying debris.
Pac's previous album ALL EYES ON ME was RELEASED february 13 that same year. Track number 13 on one of the double cds is called I AINT MAD AT YA. In the video, which was directed by Tupac just a month before he was allegedly shot, he was shot and killed by unknown asailants when leaving the cinema with a friend. The friend escaped unhurt.
Like Marvin Gaye, Tupac led a troubled life with all the court cases and threat on his life. He wanted to escape it all. While he was incarcerated he encountered Machiavelli book THE PRINCE. Machiavelli advocates the engineering of one's death to fool his/her enemy and plot behind the scenes.
Pac changed his named to Makaveli. His first release after his 'death' was under the name MAKAVELI. rest in peace,was not mentioned on that album. It is still not mentioned anywhere. On a song on that same album he says, I SWITCHED MY NAME TO MAKAVELI, HAD THE RAP GAME CLOSED. In another song on the better days album, he says, I RETIRED FROM THIS LIFE THAT NEVER GAVE ME SH.....
Suddenly he became fixated with death. The evidence of his plot is revealed in his works by the themes he seem obsess with: changing, disappearance, reaapearance, his troubles, re incarnation, coming back, still breathing, ressurection, he is located worldwide like graffiti, etc.
CHANGES, THIS AINT LIVING, SO MANY TEARS, STARING THROUGH MY REARVIEW MIRROR, IF I DIE 2NITE, CHECK OUT TIME, STILL BREATHING, CHANGED MAN, INTERNATIONAL, AS SOON AS I GET HOM, WHAT NEXT, ONLY FEAR OF DEATH, ONLY GOD CAN JUDGE ME, LIFE GOES ON, HOW LONG WILL YOU MOURN ME, THE GOOD LIFE, UNTIL THE END OF TIME, LETTER TO MY UNBORN CHILD, ALL OUT, etc, these are some of the titles of his songs that explored the themes mentioned earlier.
A few days before he was allegedly shot he was accosted by a reporter at a video awards ceremony. She was fascinated with the high level of security that sorrounded him. he explained that because he was almost killed 2 years before, Deathrow was providing elaborate security for him. yet on the night of the shooting, security was non-existenT. the bodyguards didnt have any guns. One of the bodyguards said that in a security meeting two days before the Tyson fight, they were told not to bring any guns with them on the day in question. no explanations were given.
In the movie RESSURECTION which made 7 years after Tupac's departure, and narrated by him, he was said, "I dont have time here, when I'm gone you will have to look after these". While he was talking all the albums that have been released since his "death" were showcased. Everything that sorrounds the alleged shooting and death has a parrallel in his works.
He uses the flashback technique alot in his works when he described situations that would have been more aptly described in the present tense. This shows that many of the post death releases were written after he dissapeared and not before. For instance, when describing what he was going through, he says I WAS STRESSED. iF this remark was made before he was shot and killed, he would have said, I AM STRESSED, , because he was going through alot at the time of the "death". What i have described is just the tip of the iceberg. I have a whole manuscript on this.
Remember in CHANGES he says, WE GOTTA DO WHAT WE GOTTA DO, TO SURVIVE. And in Ghetto Gospel, at the end of the video, his mom says, THERE IS NOTHING MORE IMPORTANT THAN KEEPING OURSELVES ALIVE. At the end of a duet, UNTOUCHABLE, with him and LEFTEYE, released in 2001, he said EXPECT ME Nxxxx, LIKE YOU EXPECT JESUS TO COME BACK, EXPECT ME Nxxxx, I'M COMING, . This was repeated years later at the end of one of the cds on the BETTER DAYS ALBUM.
