His significant influence has persisted in inspiring and resonating with innumerable musicians and fans across many decades despite his brief existence on Earth and as a performer.

On Wednesday, June 7, 2023, a historic moment occurred when the late Tupac Amaru Shakur also known by his stage name 2Pac received a star on the famous Hollywood Walk of Fame. Just a little over a week before his birthday (June 16th), and more than 25 years after his horrific killing in 1996, in Las Vegas. This remarkable honor came in the footsteps of Nipsey Hussle, Snoop Dogg, Missy Elliott, Diddy, and more hip-hop legends who were awarded their stars in the Hall of Fame.
