2Pac became the unlikely martyr of gangsta rap, and a tragic symbol
of the toll its lifestyle exacted on urban black America. At the
outset of his career, it didn't appear that he would emerge as one
of the definitive rappers of the 90s - he started out as a
second-string rapper and dancer for Digital Underground, joining
only after they had already landed their biggest hit. But in 1991,
he delivered an acclaimed debut album, "2Pacalypse Now", and quickly
followed with a star-making performance in the urban drama Juice.
Over the course of one year, his profile rose substantially, based
as much on his run-ins with the law as his music. By 1994, 2Pac
rivaled Snoop Dogg as the most controversial figure in rap, spending
as much time in prison as he did in the recording studio.
His burgeoning outlaw mythology helped his 1995 album "Me Against
The World" enter the charts at number one, and it also opened him up
to charges of exploitation. Yet, as the single "Dear Mama"
illustrated, he was capable of sensitivity as well as violence.
Signing with Death Row Records in late 1995, 2Pac released the
double-album "All Eyez On Me" in the spring of 1996, and the record,
as well as its hit single "California Love", confirmed his superstar
status. Unfortunately, the gangsta lifestyle he captured in his
music soon overtook his own life. While his celebrity was at its
peak, he publicly fought with his rival, The Notorious B.I.G, and
there were tensions brewing at Death Row. Even with such conflicts,
however, 2Pac's drive-by shooting in September 1996 came as an
unexpected shock. On September 13, six days after the shooting, 2Pac
passed away, leaving behind a legacy that was based as much on his
lifestyle as it was his music.
"Dear Mama" was the lead single from 2Pac's third studio album "Me
Against The World".
