Tupac
built 635 days ago
Tupac Amaru, a legitimate son of Manco Capac, emerged as the next ruler. Tupac Amaru had grown up in the Incan convent of Vilcabamba, the so-called religious university of the Incas. He was favored by the native religious and military leaders. Unlike Quispe Titu, Tupac Amaru was an adult. And he opposed Christianity and the Spanish occupation. In Vilcabamba all signs of Christianity were quickly destroyed and churches were leveled.

Tupac played Bishop-as-bogeyman ingeniously. Dickerson placed him throughout Juice as a cloaked figure--at one point Bishop's red hood is pulled over his head, his face turned away from the camera, a fiend more likely to battle the X-Men than three of his buddies in Harlem. Tupac depicts Bishop's coldness as a hopelessness he finally submits to, even if it means embracing depravity. "You gotta get the ground beneath your feet, get the wind behind your back," says Bishop, after watching James Cagney get shot in Public Enemy. "And go out in a blaze of glory if you got to. Otherwise you might as well be dead your damn self."

FACT: Jimmy “Henchmen” Rosemond is Haitian born, and worked with both Tupac and Biggie, before managing artists like The Game, Mario Winans, and Sharissa. Henchmen was reportedly the force behind numerous uprisings in Hip-Hop, including the recent “G-Unot” and “Stop Snitching” campaigns.
On the cover of The 7 Day Theory, there is a picture of Tupac being crucified. This fits with the idea that Tupac "died" so he could be reincarnated as Makaveli. In the picture, there are five bullet holes. Interestingly, Tupac was "shot" 5 times.
At Momorí they discovered that Tupac had escaped by land. They followed with the help of the Mamarí Indians, who advised which path the Inca had followed and reported that Tupac was slowed by his wife, who was about to give birth. After a fifty mile march they saw a campfire around nine o'clock at night. They found Tupac Amaru and his wife warming themselves. They assured them that no harm would come to them and secured their surrender. Tupac Amaru was arrested.

Tupac always wore a bulletproof vest, no matter where he went. Why didn't he wear it to a very public event like a Tyson fight? (Because he wanted to make it seem like he could be shot.)
