Tupac Remembered -- Tupac Shakur's albums have sold more than 73 million copies and touched fans all over the world. In his lifetime, Tupac made personal connections with political leaders, serious actors, rap artists, and many others. Tupac Remembered presents these influential figures' candid and most cherished memories of "Pac," in their own words. Compiled with the participation and support of the Shakur family, contributors include Jada Pinkett-Smith, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Nikki Giovanni, Kevin Powell, Common, E40, Sonia Sanchez, and others. Personal snapshots and remembrances shed light on the many personas of Tupac, who even a decade after his death remains one of the music industry's most complicated and enduring artists.

Molly Monjauze worked closely with Tupac Shakur during his lifetime, and since his death has assisted the Shakur family with compiling unreleased Tupac materials. She lives in Los Angeles.
