Late rap icon Tupac Shakur was on Wednesday officially honored with his own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
While accepting the posthumous star which is located at 6212 Hollywood Blvd, Tupac sister sister Sekyiwa “Set” Shakur, said, “It fills my heart with honor to stand here today representing the Shakur family,” she said.
“Tupac knew deep down that he was always meant for something great. And as his little sister, I had the privilege to watch that greatness unfold”.
Tupac was assassinated on September 7, 1996, in Las Vegas. He passed just six days later, at the age of 25. His murder remains unsolved.
Despite the fact that his career only lasted a few years before his demise, he is well-known around the world. He has even had exhibits named after him. In 2022, the “Tupac Shakur: Wake Me When I’m Free” exhibit opened for a limited period in Los Angeles. It was a completely immersive museum experience that delves into the artist’s life and legacy.
Recall that Tupac was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2017
