No one, including the librarians, knew who would show up for the discussions and what their interest in Shakur might be. They needn’t have worried. Each session attracted up to 40 people, with an interesting mix of ages and opinions of hip-hop culture. There were mothers of teenagers who wanted to understand their children’s obsession with Tupac Shakur, as well as teachers, teens, and a mother of four children who told the group she found daily inspiration and hope in Tupac’s songs and poems.

Earlier in the day, Shakur and Knight attended a Mike Tyson fight. After the fight Shakur and Knight got into a physical altecation at the MGM Grand Hotel with a group of people that included Orlando Anderson. Six days later, at the age of 25, Shakur died from his gunshot wounds.

Tupac's character, Birdie, was flimsily written, but Tupac fully dramatized the deadness of soul certain killers must have. As in Juice, there are moments in Rim when Tupac captures the calm of bitter people who've been kicked when they were defenseless, the confidence that comes with constantly intimidating people. He does casual evil as deftly as John Malkovich, tells you all about Hades with his fringed eyes.
