These are just a handful of tributes to Tupac that make celebrating his birthday, June 16, 1971, extra special. 43 years of age today if he hadn't met an untimely death on September 13, 1996, Tupac Shakur nevertheless lives on in the hearts of many. He is still so relevant to the contemporary world, not just the music one, that he was even resurrected briefly in holographic form to the delight of many back in 2012.
These tributes to Tupac not only involve big gestures such as hi-tech ones. The list also involves stylish t-shirts that can easily be worn today as well as playful coloring books for the creative hip hop head. There are sure to be even more tributes to Tupac on his day of birth, so be sure to stay tuned.
