Ten years ago this week, doe-eyed rapper Tupac Shakur died from gunshot wounds sustained from a drive-by-shooting. Like many other celebrities who check out too soon, he has become a double threat, adding to his resume publishing superstar. It seems every year the anniversary of his murder rolls around, another tribute appears in my stacks, and this year is no different. Writer/director/activist Jamal Joseph offers up the most lavish treatment in Tupac Shakur Legacy (Atria), an authorized biography modeled after the highly successful Bob Dylan Scrapbook. Pac’s many fans can pore over 20 facsimiles of handwritten lyrics, notebook entries on a video shoot, and pages from a movie script. There are photos aplenty (100 in full color and black and white) and even an audio CD of selected interviews. At $45, it’s a bit of an indulgence for a library, and no doubt the fascimiles would go missing, but this book is guaranteed to pull in armies of young patrons. If you don’t have them already, you should also order Shakur’s own The Rose That Grew Through Concrete (a poetry collection) and Darrin Keith Bastfield’s Back in the Day: My Life and Times with Tupac Shakur.
