INTRODUCTION Over the last few decades, American society has developed a growing obsession with the public sphere of celebrity and entertainment gossip. What was once regarded as one’s private and intimate information has become the focal point of countless news and media outlets. The pervasive nature of American media has allowed celebrity information and gossip to be shared at alarming speeds. Consequently, Americans have developed strong emotional ties to celebrities that society has deemed famous. These emotional ties are often so strong that fans feel as if they actually know the celebrity, and begin to think about them as if they were a close personal friend. Media outlets have taken it upon themselves to choose how they will portray certain celebrities, and they inundate society with messages and stories that are in line with their desired perception.

  • Post-Mortem Projections: Medieval Mystical Resurrection and the Return of Tupac Shakur Alicia Spencer-Hall*
    Citation: OPTICON Spencer-Hall, A 2012 The Post-mortem Projections: Medieval Mystical Resurrection and MDCCCXXVI the Return of Tupac Shakur. Opticon1826, 13: 56-71, DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5334/opt.af ARTICLE Post-mortem Projections: Medieval Mystical Resurrection and the Return of Tupac Shakur Alicia Spencer-Hall* Medieval hagiographies abound with tales of post-mortem visits and miracles by saints. The saint was a powerful religious individual both in life and in death, a con- duit of divine grace and lightning rod for Christian fervour. With her post-mortem presence, the presumptive boundary between living and dead, spirit and flesh, is rent apart: showing the reality of the hereafter and shattering the fantasies of the mortal world. The phenomenon of a glorified individual returning to a worshipful community after their apparent mortal expiration is not just medieval. In April 2012, the rapper Tupac Shakur “performed” on stage at the Coachella music festival. Tupac was murdered in 1996; his ghostly presence was the result of a hologram. His holo- graphic form, the “Pac-O-Gram”, took to the stage to a breathless crowd of fans. The holographic performance is a product of technological advances. Yet reports of the holographic performance were filled with references to Tupac’s “resurrection”, a significant word choice, and one which links the rapper’s return with medieval hagiography more than the advance of technology. What can an examination of the modern example of the Pac-O-Gram and examples drawn from medieval hagiography of the dead returning to life add to each other? Introduction ‘felt like they were seeing Tupac rise from Renowned American rapper and actor Tupac the grave,’ according to one source (Dinar Shakur was gunned down on 7 September 2012).

  • A Look Inside the Political Hip Hop Music of Tupac Amaru Shakur
    ABSTRACT AFRICAN AMERICAN STUDIES, AFRICANA WOMEN’S STUDIES, AND HISTORY WATKINS, TRINAE M.A. CLARK ATLANTA UNIVERSITY, 2018 PANTHER POWER: A LOOK INSIDE THE POLITICAL HIP HOP MUSIC OF TUPAC AMARU SHAKUR Committee Chair: Charmayne Patterson, Ph.D. Thesis dated December 2018 In this study, seven rap songs by hip hop icon Tupac Shakur were examined to determine if the ideology of the Black Panther Party exists within the song lyrics of his politically oriented music. The study used content analysis as its methodology. Key among the Ten Point Program tenets reflected in Tupac’s song lyrics were for self- determination, full employment, ending exploitation of Blacks by Whites (or Capitalists), decent housing, police brutality, education, liberation of Black prisoners, and the demand for land, bread, housing, education, clothing, justice, peace, and a United Nations plebiscite.

  • Exploring Mass Incarceration in the United States Through Tupac Shakur’S Lyricism: a Decolonial Approach
    “I SEE NO CHANGES” Exploring Mass Incarceration in the United States Through Tupac Shakur’s Lyricism: a Decolonial Approach “I am society’s child. This is how they made me and now I’m sayin’ what’s on my mind and they don’t want that. This is what you made me, America.” – Tupac Shakur Aaron Navid Dahm Free University Berlin Notes of the Author This paper serves as my personal contribution to the collective learning process of my university’s class on decolonial theory. We, as the students of this class, identify this process of learning to be of a collective nature because we believe that neither the acquisition nor the diffusion of knowledge should be characterized by a dialectical relationship between professor and students or among students. Along the lines of Paulo Freire’s conviction that every human being is capable of looking at the world critically through dialogical encounters with others, our class formulated the goal of creating an online platform through which we can share our insights and enhance our collective learning process through meaningful conversation. As Freire accentuated almost 50 years ago, individuals can gradually - through dialogical encounters - perceive personal and social reality as well as the contradictions in it, become conscious of his or her own perception of that reality, and deal critically with it (Freire 1965: 32). The website, thus, serves as a tool through which to reconcile what Freire calls “the teacher-student contradiction”, id est the antagonistic relationship between the teacher, who ‘possesses’ knowledge, and the student who is a mere “containers” to be filled with such knowledge (ibid., 72).

  • Entire Drah Cenedive Interview on Rap Icon
    Entire Drah Cenedive Interview on Rap Icon Written by Robert ID1813 Friday, 19 August 2005 08:21 - On Friday, Sept. 13th 1996 at 4:03 p.m. the face of hip-hop changed forever. West coast rap icon, actor, poet, social activist and a very ‘intelligent black man’; Tupac Shakur was pronounced dead by the coroner in Las Vegas, Nevada. At 9 o’clock that evening Tupac’s body was released to Davis Mortuary, which cremated his remains, at the request of Tupac’s mother Afeni Shakur. Since that time many tears, memories and feelings have been shared about the rap legend that was taken from us so suddenly and at such an early age. Along with the tears there are many ‘theories’ of what happened that night in Las Vegas and what really happened to Tupac that night. The theories range from who set him up to be assassinated to the ‘alive’ theories. Many fans feel that Tupac did not really leave us in the physical form that night in Las Vegas. Many feel that he is still among us and has remained ‘hidden’ all these years for different reasons. Until now all the ‘alive’ theories have been just talk on the internet and in forums and chat rooms around the world. Drah Cenedive, lead author of ‘2Pac Lives’, has given his permission for an exclusive interview with ThugLifeArmy.com. The interview is regarding the Lawrence, KS based Hard Evidence Research Group & Publishing book titled: ‘2Pac Lives The Death of Makaveli / The Resurrection of Tupac Amaru (Volume 1)’. 1 / 40 Entire Drah Cenedive Interview on Rap Icon Written by Robert ID1813 Friday, 19 August 2005 08:21 - This is a very interesting book and one that true fans of Tupac will want to investigate.

Music enthusiasts and pop culture followers alike constantly see the Top 100 charts filled with hits from rap stars Drake, Kendrick Lamar, Childish Gambino, and Beyoncé as well as up and coming rappers Post Malone, Travis Scott, and Migos. Rap music consumption has increased immensely in the United States. In their “2017 U.S. Music Year-End Report”, Nielsen analytics reported that hip hop/R&B became, for the first time ever, the most dominant genre, accounting for 24.5 percent of all music consumed as well as seven out of ten most consumed albums from the year.
