beautiful K. Flay plays in the background as i mess around with some friends at western washington university.

The swedish interviewer met with the legendary Tupac Shakur in New York november 1994, only 2 weeks before the shooting in the lobby of Quad Recording Studio. I included som rare pictures. After Tupac’s death the swedish radio station P3 made this hour long tribute, and included the interview they did with the fallen rap star. This is a rip from swedish radio, and when not talking to Tupac himself, the interviewer is speaking swedish. He is talking about Tupac’s life and struggle. You can skip to Tupac’s parts.
