one of the most sincere and honest collections of work i’ve read in a long time. each poem at first glance, short and no more than half a page in length, with single-letter words and numbers throughout the lines, appears surface level and simple, but upon reading they are deep and meaningful pieces that each inspire different feelings and reveal brief glimpses behind the curtain into the mind of a commonly misinterpreted man.
to have a better understanding of life and its meaning than most adults at only twenty-five is ironic. to have that life snuffed out before it even reached half a century is tragic.
i blinked and it was over. there is irony in that, too.

I'm a huge fan of Tupac's music since I can remember and once I found out he had written poetry that was turned into this book, you know I had to get my hands on it. Reading this book was truly an eye-opening experience because we get to see firsthand how well of a poet Tupac was and why he was so good at putting what he thought to paper! I wish we could have seen more of his poetry because it is truly beautiful.

What a beautiful spirit.
I enjoyed the emotion in the poems Tupac wrote to his lovers. It's sad that his thoughts on the justice system are still relevant.
