A graphics company here in Hollywood called Digital Domain created a 3D hologram of Tupac, who showed up at the closing act during Coachella this past weekend. MAN, I wish I was there to see it. Snoop Dogg came out and sang with Tupac. Epic.
Tupac Shakur was one of the most revolutionary rappers of his time. He lived the thug life, and he rapped about it in a sense that didn't glorify it. He talked about it being hard, and that he needs to live the better life. He rapped about respect. He rapped about authority. He rapped about family. He rapped about the afterlife and heaven, and religion. Rap can't even compare these days.
Read more about the hologram and perhaps even a Tupac hologram tour on Rolling Stone.
They are saying next weekend at Coachella Weekend #2 they are doing another. Be kind of cool if they did Kurt Cobain and had foo fighters play along for some Nirvana songs.
It's just me against the world, baby,
