Tupac Amaru Shakur (June 16, 1971 – September 13, 1996) was an American rap artist, actor, activist, and poet. He is known by his stage names: 2Pac and Makaveli. He is recognized in the Guinness Book of World Records as the top-selling hip-hop artist, having sold over 73 million albums worldwide.[2] This includes over 44.5 million sales in the United States alone.[3] Most of Shakur's songs are about growing up around violence and hardship in ghettos, racism, problems in society, and sometimes his feuds with fellow rappers. Shakur is known for the political, economic, and messages of racial equality found in much of his work. He has been ranked by many fans, critics, and industry insiders as the greatest rapper ever

"The album was released exactly 7 months after his previous album All Eyez On Me" February to November is 9 months. As it was the birth of Makaveli He didn't wear a bullet proof vest because it was so hot under his suit when he would be inside a hot MGM Grand. He's obviously not alive
