I am honored to announce that the greatest rapper that the world has ever known, Tupac Shakur, has finally received a Hollywood star for his accomplishments in the entertainment industry, making him the fourth rap artist on the planet to be given such a prestigious award. I must say that this has been long over due for the slain Rapper/Actor/Poet/Historian, but as one of his biggest fans I'm totally content with the decision. Almost eighteen years after his death, his music and legacy still continues to live on universally.
Just as Huffingtonpost.com reported back in June, he is one of the best-selling music artists in the world with one of the best-selling hip hop albums, All Eyez on Me, of all time! Tupac has become a martyr during his death especially due to the fact that he has tons of loyal fans worldwide. In Germany and Georgia, statues were erected in his honor, his life has been subjected to over a dozen different documentaries, and several prestigious universities such as Harvard have done lectures on Mr. Shakur. Last but not least, his impact on hip hop culture can be easily displayed by simply turning on your tv or radio. #West side
