2Pac Shakur

[Boxofpandoraz]

I saw on the news that it was so popular, "he" may be going on tour soon.

.

I've already started coming up with ideas for business ventures that the hologram could embark on. I've also decided that the hologram should be renamed "3DPac".

Here's a couple of my ideas.

- A photo booth where fans can be photographed with 3DPac. As the video from Coachella clearly shows, he does photograph really well. They could call this venture "Pics with Pac".

- A theme park ride, or permanent museum-quality exhibit. Wherein the tourist could perform in simulated concerts along side their hero. Since the vocal recreation is a part of the technology that went into making the hologram possible, it would therefore be possible to do personalized "shout outs" to the tourist while "on stage". They could opt to purchase either a DVD or a CD of their performance after the experience is over.

My friend just told me that I'm like the Walt Disney of dead rappers. Thanks...I think.

That was freaky. I wonder how long it will be until we can watch Buddy Holly perform in our living rooms.

Now THAT would be worth seeing!!!

[Zoe_Zeppelin]

That 2Pac hologram was cool! I would have loved to have been there.

Peppers Ghost.. Also interesting is that CGI tupac was made by the same people who did the CGI for Titanic =P.

Thanks to the Magic School bus and Mrs. Frizzle for teaching me about that effect a long time ago =P!! (see episode 31) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...l_Bus_episodes

Lol -- I had the exact same thought...

I dunno, the whole thing is more creepy than anything for me. I even think it's kinda ghoulish when artists do "duets" with dead musicians or perform with them onstage (like Celine Dion and Elvis on AI -- that was just plain weird). It's sort of a like a muppet version of Tupac.

[ScarletStarlet]

I thought it was ace! Funny though, he says "what the f**k is up, Coachella?"

Tupac died in 1996. The first Coachella was in 1999. Just sayin'

[racingfan]

I think that was part of the novelty of it. That part wasn't supposed to be his real voice. It was "digitally recreated" according to what ive read. They won't reveal how much was from Tupac himself and how much was manufactured.

[BelleRain]

The piece I read also said that Tupac had never performed Gangster Party live before. They used his moves and voice from other performances, and pieced it all together to get what we saw. I thought it was just great. And now Dre is thinking of more performances and shows to have the hologram of him perform at.

[racingfan]

I heard Dre and Snoop Dogg are planning on actually taking Hologram Tupac on tour.

[BelleRain]

Yep, I heard that also. Of course they will, Dre just hit another gold mine.

[racingfan]

Still think it's weird.

[BelleRain]

And I saw in a article today....Dre says he would love to see a Hendrix hologram perform LOL This is gonna be the next big thing.

[monroe27]

that is for real creepy....

[endsleigh03]

Finally got to see the Tupac hologram.

Just awesome.

[snowblindburd]

Two pictures I saw on another forum, thought I'd share lol.

I'm not into rap at all but have watched the video several times and am totally awed by it. I live just a few miles from there and would love to see it live on Sunday.

Um, hate to burst your bubble, Suge, but in those pics of 2pac in the mortuary he looks pretty dead to me

i have only seen one death pic, is there any more?

[Ouattara]

i have only seen one death pic, is there any more?

I think that the autopsy photo is the one of Tupac died.

[ScarletStarlet]

My mistake, it is just one pic!

Oh wow. I really dont know much about Tupac but I had read he never did it live, and that was supposed to be added impression to the hologram LOL Oh well,. They were wrong. See Cant get nothing past us death hags.

[Shejay]

Dr. Dre shoulda saved some of the money he "donated" to 3DPac's charity and helped out with his dead homeboy's Nate Doggs outstanding medical bills... SMH....

[msmekia78]

I remember when I first saw the pic of dead Tupac... my brother was....nope that's not him..... I wish I could dig him up just to prove it

He was cremated and buried on his mother's farm, under a tree. Safe to say, digging him up and "proving" anything won't be happening.

[Tiffany]

I believe it was Reagan who criticized one of Tupac's albums for being too violent.....

I thought he was scattered on the beach with some of Tupac's personal belongings like jewelry & such.......& some were smoked.

Classy to the bitter end.

I like Malcolm X's last words before his death: "Cool it, brothers."

[StewartGilliganGriffin]

Stay classy San Diego. I'm glad he's dead.

killed 20 years ago - Sept 13/1996

[ktkatinmn]

Now that his mother has passed - notice his music going commercial? His mom kept his music close, now I hear it in commercials on TV. Rolling over in their graves - the both of them. Estate is now cashing in. I was wondering how long it would take once she passed - not very long!!!

he has been inducted to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame

[TheDude]

Suge Knight has made the claim that his ex wife and an ex employee were the ones who killed Tupac and that they were aiming for him but Tupac got hit instead.

Like how the f***? you could have probably thrown a rock in the car and you'd 100 percent chance of hitting Suge

[BuzzyChick]

I wasn't a big fan of tupac but I do want the murder to get solved, same as biggie. Interesting how they both died the same way, not much time between them, connected much? Personally I think the cops already know who did it but don't want us to know. Thoughts anyone?

[Shejay]

Yeah I am over the whole "who killed Tupac/Biggie" - they need to quit with the "TV Specials" and movies already. How many times can they play the same story, over and over...

Somebody KNOWS who killed both of them, but with the "hood code" I'm sure we will never know...

[Shellie]

Well it looks like he is still alive after all....if you believe Suge Knight's son Suge J

According to J, he's been living in Malaysia all these years under the grid and posted blurry pictures, selfies and vids of a supposedly modern day Pac alongside others where he was pictured with the likes of Beyonce and 50 Cent. He of course then tweeted he had started getting texts which he posted saying he had said too much and he was now marked by the...Illuminati.

https://globalnews.ca/news/4516077/s...live-malaysia/


There are many believing it but it looks to me to be nothing but photoshop and the selfies are of a similiar looking actor who is supposed to be playing him in a film.

Danged Illuminati has absolutely got their hands into everything.
Massive workforce, obviously.
I wonder if they have a 401 and profit sharing.
