TUPAC SHAKUR

This is one of those bittersweet moments in hip-hop. On one hand we get to hear from one of the hip-hop greats, Tupac Shakur; on the other hand he talks about his death in an almost prophetic way. The unreleased 1994 interview featured Tupac talking to writer Benjamin Svetkey at a Hollywood restaurant. When ask where do you see yourself in 10-15 years, 2Pac responded:

Best case: in a cemetery. Not in a cemetery. Sprinkled in ashes, smoked up by my homies. Worst caseโ€ฆ I mean thatโ€™s the worst case. Thatโ€™s the worst case. Thatโ€™s the worst case. Best case: multimillionaire. Owning all of this.

If you are a Tupac stan then you know just how close this was to what happened to him. The animated interview was put together by PBS blog Blank on Blank as part of their series of lost interviews with iconic figures.
