His talent was unbounded, a raw force that commanded attention and respect. His death was tragic - a violent homage to the power of his voice. His legacy is indomitable - remaining vibrant and alive. Here now, newly discovered, are Tupac's most honest and intimate thoughts conveyed through the pure art of poetry - a mirror into his enigmatic life and its many contradictions. Written in his own hand at the age of nineteen, they embrace his spirit, his energy . . . and his ultimate message of hope.

Comments

Coincidentally, "The Rose that Grew from Concrete" is one of my favorite poems.  I had to analyze its meaning in one of poetry classes once.  It conveys a very powerful message about survival in the inner city.  I love it!
