2pac - Final 24: His Final Hours {Full}

september 6th 1996... Tupac Shakur, is the most successful hip-hop artist in the world. Frank Alexander: "He is no different than the king of rock and roll Elvis Presley. Tupac was a King of Rap..." To his legions of fans he's the ultimate gangsta rapper. Shakur: "Thug Life.. Thug Life.. that's my comment" He is the angry voice of urban America. Shakur: "yes, I am gonna say that I'm a thug, that's because I came from the gutter." Big Syke: "People in the hood called him black Jesus. he was sent here to save us" But to the authorities and to his rivals within the world of hip-hop he is seen as a threat. Shakur: "y'know America eats its babies, no matter what y'all think about me, I'm still your child" -- Danyel Smith: "he said many times i'm going to die I'll going to go out in a blaze of glory." And soon that prophecy will come true. This is the story the final hours in the life of Tupac Shakur. Los Angeles California. September 6th, 1996. it's 11:30 PM and Tupac Shakur leaves Lacey Studios in downtown L.A. Where he's just finished shooting his latest video. After scoring six "Top 10" singles in the last six years, Tupac is riding a wave of success that other artists can only envy. but; in just 24 hours that ride will come to a sudden and brutal end. Aafter driving to his mansion in the L.A. Suburb of Calabasas, Tupac, exhausted from the video shoot steals a few hours' sleep. In the morning his cousin Jamala Lesane reminds him that they have to leave on a trip to Las Vegas. Jamala Lesane: "Because our birthdays is the same month, he wanted me to celebrate out birthdays together in Vegas. Tupac is going to Vegas to catch a boxing match than playing at a local club. with him is his live-in girlfriend, Kidada Jones daughter of legendary record producer, Quincy Jones. Within hours they hit the road. But, Tupac is less than eager to make the trip. EDI Mean: Pac didn't want to go. You know what I'm saying? It was obvious. There was some other family issues he wanted to deal with back in Atlanta and he wasn't too keen on the whole Vegas trip. You know what i mean? But, at the urging of his manager, Tupac goes along with the plan. It will be the last trip he ever takes. Five years earlier, back in 1991, The only plan for Tupac Shakur was making it to the top in the competitive world of hip-hop. And with his first album, 2Pacalypse Now, Tupac was well on his way. From the start, he forged a powerful bond with his fans rapping about the cold reality of life on the streets. Big Syke; " When he put pen to the paper, and he opened his mouth on that mic, it was just, you know, God had to be workin' ..like it seemed like every song he wrote, his life was coming out, Like it was just taking the blood out of him" Shakur: "They got Little Italy, a Little-Everything. They don't have a Little Africa, they got the Ghetto. And we think that that's ours, but that's not even ours. That's just what was left over" His songs stood up for the powerless: the poor, the forgotten, those with no political voice in society. In 1994, Shakur clearly spelled out his philosophy in an album entitled, "Thug Life." Ray Luv: ".. he wanted the ones who didn't think nobody gave a s**t, to see that he gave a s**t. THUG LIFE. The Hate You Gave little Infants F**ks Everyone. Thug Life wasn't just something for me. Thug Life was for you too. Anybody. It's all the s**t that society throws at you" Big Syke: "Thug Life is about choices. When you make the wrong choices you and up in the life that you don't really want to be in.. That's what Thug Life is against all odds, and I'm still make it. Tupac even had his political creed etched onto his skin. Ray Luv: "All his tattoos meant something. He had, um, fifty [beep]s with an AK-47 tattooed on him. And what he believed was that, fifty black men can do anything, anything! If they put their mind to it and they're all pulling at same time in the same direction." Fans fell in love with his swagger, and with his utter refusal to tone down his message Danyel Smith: "Was it incendiary? Was it crazy? Were the kids screaming at his concerts? Were the girls tearing off their shirts? Were guys like you know, saluting with their pistol salute in the air? Yes, they were doing all that. And I mean, that's hip-hop, that's rock and roll." Tupac's appeal went way beyond the ghetto, pulling in white, middle-class, suburban kids who enjoyed the danger he brought from the other side of the tracks. Molly Monjauze: "Whether it was his energy, or his force, or his excitement, or you know, whatever it was. I believe that he connected with men and women and black and white and old and youg... Ray Luv: 'he always kinda' had this ideology that he didn't need a record label, he didn't need the movies, all he needed to do was stay real. 'Cause if he stays real and he keeps telling the kids what is authentic to him, that they will always relate. He will never be begging for bread." If it was attention that Tupac was looking for, he more than got it. but, not always for the right reasons. As he climbed the ladder, some in the hip-hop community looked on with envy. Tupac Shakur was starting to make enemies EDI Mean: "Hip-hop was about competition and about You know, I'm better than you and you know, I get more chicks than you. It's very competitive, almost like a sport. Then you have, you know these huge egos working against each other... It's a recipe for destruction And soon, rap's absession with rivalry and violence will hit the glitzy streets of Vegas and someone will overthrow it's reigning king. September 7th, 1996. 3 PM. Tupac Shakur has arrived in Las Vegas, Nevada, where he's scheduled to watch a boxing match and perform at a local club. It's a performance he will never get a chance to give.. in less than 9 hours, he will be gunned down in cold blood. After leaving his girlfriend and cousin behind at the hotel, Tupac kills time before the boxing match by hitting the casino tables. At his side is his trusted bodyguard Frank Alexander. Frank Alexander: " We get over to the MGM and he's gambling again on the crap table and he's winning, he winning big, he's doing really well." EDI Mean: "I think Pac had about ten grand in his pocket - and it was burning a hole in this pocket, he was trying to get rid of it as fast as he could." At the table, Tupac is joined by members of the Outlaw immortalz his back-up group. Frank Alexander: "they were his singers and his friends that were on a lot of the songs." As usual, everywhere Tupac goes a crowd follows, especially women. Frank Alexander: "Tupac and women... the women were a dime a dozen. They were there, the groupies. From the movie sets, Video sets, on the studio, from italy.. [laugh] wherever." In the casino, as in life, Tupac plays for high stakes. Riding high in the charts, he can afford to gamble. But 25 years earlier, on the streets of East Harlem, New York City, few would have laid bets on the future success of young Tupac Shakur. His mother, Afeni Shakur a member of the radical Black Panther party, was arrested and charged along with 20 other members, for conspiring to blow up local buildings. Afeni Shakur: "I was captivated by the visualness of the Black Panther Party. I was captivated by the rationality of the Black Panther Party and i was captivated by the sense of service of the Black Panther Party For me! The Black Panther Party: was a way to legitimately express my anger." Eventually acquitted of all charges and pregnant with Tupac. Afeni was released from jail after spending 15 months on and off behind bars. And, on June 16th, 1971, she gave birth to Tupac Amaru Shakur who she named after a South American Incan revolutionary. Yhe name meaning: "Shining serpent". Afeni Shakur: "So Shining serpent is a brilliant spirit.. I actually believed in 1971 that giving a child a name empowers him." But what did not help empower young Tupac was the absence of his father, also a Black Panther who was rarely around. Ray Luv: "What he didn't have was that masculine figure in his life, for a sustained period of time that would, you know, you can go play ball with." Adding to that instability was crippling poverty, at times rendering Tupac and his mother homeless. but, in 1986, despite those hardships. Afeni moved to Baltimore and managed to enroll her son in a unique public hight school: The Baltimore School for the Arts. Afeni Shakur: "That was a really good experience for Tupac because the other students at the school were all artists. And the environment for artists is different. It's a lot freer, it's a lot less restrictive." In particular, he fell in love with acting. And with rap music. Danyel Smith: "I think Tupac always believed he could have it all. He could be an incredible and talented MC, he could be an incredible and talented actor... I think he saw no boundaries or limits for his potential." But, in contrast to school, his life at home was stark, Afeni Shakur: "I had gotten hit by a man that I was having a relationship with and that had a very bad reaction on my son, because I wouldn't allow my my son to beat the man up. And that was a real breach, for Tupac internally... In June of 1988, to protect her son from their troubled home life, Afeni sent Tupac to the other end of the country, To live with a friend in Marin city, California. but the 16-year-old quickly discovered he had simply traderd one nightmare for another. Ray Luv: "Marin City, the one thing they're known for is a fist fight. Tupac was a little bitty guy... Even him fully bulked up is still a little bitty guy, which makes it even more incredible the guts that this clude had. Because he fears no man, woman, child or animal. 'Cause they can only kill you one time." Soon, Afeni joined her son in California. But, any hope of a happy family reunion was made impossible by her own personal struggles. Afeni Shakur: "My Children and i have a bond that is based on the truth and trust. And the bond was broken with a lie. The lie being I was using drugs, but i can handle it'. That's a lie. That lie, cost me dearly. Me talking about that period is different from them because in reality, i found drugs is what i did. I found the answer, my answer was crack." but, despite his contempt for his mother's addiction, Tupac too drifted into the world of narcotics. Ray Luv: 'He probably sold drugs for a week. His reason for stopping was because his heart was too big. Ya understand? When someone brings you wedding rings and they say, 'Here, I'm gonna give you these wedding rings for some crack. 'You're like, s**t! man, it's that bad? It's come to this? And he quit. He said, 'I'd rather starve or I'm gonna make this rap thing work." At 17, Tupac hoocked up with neighbourhood friend Ray Luv to create his first real group. Strictly Dope. Ray Luv: "..We didn't fear nothin'. We would show onstage and perform right now. We didn't need no trays of food. We didn't need a special type of mic. We didn't need a rider. We didn't need a limo. Now, just give me just one mic man." Tupac's ability to use that microphone would carry hime clear out of Marin City... And, eventually, to Las Vegas, where the world's greatest rapper would be silenced forever. September 7th, 1996. 6:15PM. Since arriving in Las Vegas, almost 4 hours ago, Tupac Shakur, and his entourage have been taking it easy, gambling at the casino, and enjoying a few drinks. But.. In just 5 hours, Tupac Shakur will be gunned down by a cold-blooded killer. On the invitation of his manager and CEO of his record company, Suge Knight, Tupac heads out to see a much-anticipated heavyweight title match between Bruce Seldon and Tupac's close friend Mike Tyson. EDI Mean: "Mike and Pac definitely had a a friendship, a special kind of relationship with each other, we were all Tyson fans, you know what I mean? Like Tyson was was a hero for, you know us kids, from the ghetto." since their arrival teapot 'cause insisted that his girlfriend to daughter and his cousin from our stayed back at the hotel this party just for the boys enaku member as saying to each other like while property break this down here and we can even go to the frank can go to the parties here on moneyline the want ads baskets he can say please seek that displays of god houses please just stay at pier oh With his girlfriend and cousins safe and sound in their hotel room, Tupac and his bodyguard Frank Alexander head out to the MGM Grand, were the Tyson fight is about to get underway. But for Tupac, getting inside isn't so easy. Frank Alexander: "there there a ton of people there were a ton of people in line, waiting to get into the fight. It's walking by You know, "hey it's Tupac!" "Ho it's Pac" you get the The groupies and you get the fans, you know screaming Tupac." As they move through the crowd, adoring fans, however, are not the bodyguard's only concern. The famous rapper also has his share of enemies. His recent song "Hit 'Em Up" a scathing attack on fellow rapper Biggie Smalls, has stirred up anger within the hip-hop community. For Frank Alexander, it's a real concern. Frank Alexander: "And I told Pac, I go, "Pac man, What's up with that song. "He was like, Oh man, you heard that man." He goes "that was off the hook, huh? They playing it everywhere." Man, it's all in the clubs, man. It's gonna be bad. It's gonna hop, ba ba ba. And I was like 'Pac, dude, you're gonna need mere security. I'm not going to just handle you by yourself." Alexander calls on MGM guards for additional backup. For Tupac the man who has built a career on confrontation the constant threat of violence is just par for the course. but, back in 1990, only six years earlier, few had ever even heard of Tupac Shakur. Still down and out in Marin City, California, and desperately trying to break into the music business, he caught the eye of established Oakland rapper Shock G, who offered Tupac a gig as a as a dancer in his group: Digital Underground. Ray Luv: "He saw a Pac had no home to go back to. And you know, he gave him an opportunity." It was just the break Tupac had been waiting for. Suddenly, the teenager was circling the planet on a world tour. Danyel Smith: "Tupac had a lot of fun running around with Digital Underground. They were calling from Japan, and they were calling from London and they were calling from italy and they were calling from... Australia." A natural showman, Tupac graduated from just dancing to stepping up behind the mic. The move was an immediate success. Ray Luv: "Pac was a master. he could take your style, and do it, a little bit different, or little bit better than you. And THAT! was somethin'. And so that's how he dealt with every situation." Soon, Tupac had his first recors deal, and, in November 1991, "2Pacalypse Now" was released. The album featured a strong and sometimes contradictory mix of violent anthems and compassionate social commentaries, about poverty, broken homes and drug abuse. Danyel Smith: "If you look at his music he had songs that were so "negative" about women and talked about them like they were just nothing. And then he had a whole series of other songs where he was putting all women, mothers, and black women... On such a pedestal... He was a complicated guy." In his writing, Tupac drew from his warious experiences: raised in a politically charged Black Panther home; exposed to the fine arts; and schooled on the streets. EDI Mean: "he was a poet, you know i mean, first. I think Pac was just so in tune with himself that he can do whatever kind of song and not feel like 'if people hear they're gonna think I'm weak." Jamala Lesane: "He's a fan of hisself as well. He would go "Listen, Listen to what I said, Oh my God, the boy is nice!" And this is how he would say it, he'd be like "Oh my God, the boy is nice!" He go OH!
