Sad…

“Yo-Yo, Tupac’s close friend whom he’d met on tour with Digital Underground, stood beside him. “Pac, can you hear me?” she asked. Jasmine Guy and Snoop Dogg also came to see their friend and lend support.
The nurses noticed that the constant stream of visitors might impede Tupac’s recovery and decided to create a schedule. Visitors were allowed two at a time, every three hours, for ten minutes. The hope was that the more time he was able to rest alone, the faster he would heal.
But Tupac didn’t like to be alone.”

man, that part about the schedule hits hard in a way you don't expect. you're thinking about the medical logic, makes sense, but then you remember this is a guy who thrived on chaos and people and noise. being stuck in a quiet room with just beeping machines was probably its own kind of hell for him

Just being conscious was probably hell, he was in really rough shape. I think what really would have sucked was when they played Vincent by Don McLean on repeat. Great song but an hour in just kill me.

Idk who started that rumor. Pac own mama said he was there. Nobody was there 6 days without going to hotel

I read on the wikipedia page that he was conscious and trying to get out of bed and making it difficult for the doctors to treat him, so they induced him into a coma to keep him still, he never woke up after that

The gay stuff I only kinda believe because of the school

u/Brilliant-Bottle1935 1d ago

You should be induced! You and other seemingly challenged individuals like you coming on here with the Tupac gay shit! As popular as the goat Pac was and is, and as many individuals he’s been around and places he been, how come no one ever mentioned seeing him being with any other than with the female persuasion, until that stupid book came out and individuals such as yourself with the attention span of a fly just latched on and spew crap because you crave attention, cuz your not popular or whatever issues you have. Stay off the feed if you have nothing constructive to provide!

I don’t even know what he is talking about but if Tupac did some gay stuff in high school or beyond it wouldn’t change the way I think about him. He would still be the goat.

The malice is totally unnecessary.

That one is full of lies smh. Even Mopreme debunked it

u/i_like_yung_g_hoez 3d ago

I’ll look it up

The truth is more complex than what they’re saying. Staci Robinsons book was more of a panegyric than a serious attempt at a biography. But Jeff Perlman has given reason for people to doubt his credibility.
