On February 2nd, the Grammy Museum will unveil a new exhibit dedicated to the life and lyrical times of the fallen Makaveli, “All Eyez on Me: The Writings of Tupac Shakur.” Composed of clothes, poems, interview and performance footage, and various other items will be on display for fans from all over to view up close and personally, the items were given to the Grammy Museum by ‘Pac’s estate (which is overseen by his mother, Afeni Shakur).
Speaking to the LA Times
“Tupac Shakur was one of the most original and important of all hip hop artists. His writings are both powerful and provocative,” Grammy Museum Executive Director Robert Santelli said in a statement. “It is an honor to be the first music museum to acknowledge Tupac’s legacy and to bring context to what was an incredible career.”
“It means a lot to me that Bob Santelli and the Grammy Museum have chosen to honor my son with their upcoming exhibit of his works,” she said in the same statement. “Tupac’s writings are an honest reflection of his passions for, and about life. His timeless messages have instilled hope for those who have little, and for others, they serve as a catalyst for change. His words continue to motivate and inspire new generations.”
The exhibit will last until April 2nd. Anybody wanna sponsor a trip for me to visit the exhibit? It’ll be tax deductible, I promise.
