A quarter-million dollars could grant you access to never-before-heard songs by legendary rapper 2Pac, now stirring excitement among collectors and fans alike.
In the world of hip-hop, few names command as much respect and awe as 2Pac. Known for his poetic genius and passionate performances, Tupac Shakur left an indelible mark on the music industry before his untimely demise. Now, unheard gems from this extraordinary artist are up for grabs, sparking curiosity and excitement.
The discovery of these rare tracks has been made public by popular celebrity outlet TMZ, revealing that an online auction site, Moments In Time, is offering these hidden pieces. They advertise what they call “Unknown Tupac Songs and Recordings,” providing a glimpse into a hidden chapter of the rapper’s career.
Back in the late 1990s and early ’90s, 2Pac composed and recorded music intended for a group known as Jesse and the Kidz. Unfortunately, the album never saw the light of day due to the tragic death of a band member. However, items up for auction include handwritten lyrics and a cassette containing three songs: “Leave Us Kidz Alone,” “Streetz Got Ya Babies,” and “Bedtime Storiez.”
Potential buyers should note, though, that the hefty price of $250,000 will only get them the physical items — not the rights to reproduce or profit from them. This makes the purchase more of a historic acquisition than a business investment, targeting die-hard fans and serious collectors.
While fans digest this news, another story involving 2Pac has resurfaced. Duane “Keefe D” Davis, alleged to be the rapper’s killer, has publicly maintained his innocence. In an interview with ABC News after his 2023 arrest, Keefe D claimed he was not involved in the assassination of the “California Love” singer.
In his defense, he insisted that there was no evidence linking him to the crime. “I did not do it,” he stated confidently, dismissing the case against him. He claimed to have been in Los Angeles the night 2Pac was tragically shot in Las Vegas, supported by “about 20 or 30” witnesses ready to testify on his behalf.
Keefe D’s assertions don’t end there. He suggested that Reggie Wright Jr., a former Compton police officer and security chief at Death Row Records, orchestrated the murder. Denying any wrongdoing, Wright Jr. expressed his frustration at being dragged into the controversy, adding that Keefe D had confessed to involvement in 2Pac’s murder to various law enforcement agencies between 2008 and 2023.
Furthermore, Keefe D downplayed his memoir’s claims about his involvement in the murder, describing it as exaggerated storytelling. According to him, his alleged confession was merely a strategy to avoid drug charges, a desperate measure to protect himself and others involved.
As rare 2Pac tracks surface, fans are drawn into the bidding frenzy, while the mystery of his murder continues to captivate the public. With old controversies reigniting and priceless artifacts emerging, the legacy of 2Pac remains as dynamic and intriguing as ever.
