Tupac Shakur - Thug Angel (The Life of an Outlaw)

The Notorious B.I.G., Anthony 'Treach' Criss

Image Entertainment, 2002

The Real Tupac
To see him as an intelligent, well-read, fearless, analytical, funny and caring young man, you gotta see this video. Since I was not a rap fan, I had lumped all the rappers into one group, not so with Tupac. RIP

Great And Informative Piece. Very Important.
"The Assassination Of Martin Luthor King Jr." is a great documentary that presents the truth with enough evidence to back it up. The same guy who made this film also made the equally effective documentary: "The Assassination Of JFK." Both these pieces are filled with ...

Another testament to Dr. King's legacy of greatness
