Tupac Shakur will finally get honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
“Tupac Shakur was a rapper, actor, activist, poet, and revolutionary,” Ana Martinez, producer of the Hollywood Walk of Fame said.
Tupac‘s star will be unveiled on the 7th of June 2023 and will be awarded in the recording category. TuPac’s star will be the 2,758th at 6212 Hollywood Blvd.
“This iconic artist has continued to be part of the zeitgeist for decades after his passing and will continue to be an important cultural figure for many years to come. Surely, as one of L.A.’s own, Tupac’s star will be added to the list of most visited stars.” Ana Martinez added.
Tupac d!ed on the 13th of September, 1996, and many feel it took way too long for Tupac to get this recognition.
“For the record, Tupac was selected in 2013, and we have been waiting for his family/estate to set a date”. The organizers responded to the agitation in a tweet.
