The definitive biography of Tupac Shakur arrives in our country

“Tupac Shakur – The Authorized Biography”the first and only complete portrait entirely approved by the American rapper’s family, comes in Spanish from the hand of Liburuak.

The book, which comes to life from the writer and friend of the artist’s youth Staci Robinsonis presented to the public in all its truth, revealing details and anecdotes of a tormented but truly revolutionary talent. The author, chosen by the mother of Tupac, Afeni Shakurreconstructs with absolute precision the rapper’s life through unpublished files, personal diaries and never-before-seen photographs.

Beyond chronicling the rise and fall of one of the most influential figures in contemporary popular culture, Robinson focuses on his emotional complexity and his commitment to the fight against racial inequality and oppression in the United States.

This biography also comes to offer a deeper and more distant look at the myth about Tupac, and seeks to dismantle the incomplete stories and legends that have surrounded his figure for decades. With translation of Miguel Stampthe publication is presented as an essential document to understand Tupac’s legacy from a more political and personal place.
