[Intro: Greg Nice]
'96 sho' shot
'96 sho' shot
And you sitting down in a chair, won't you ditch hole big black booty, get up
Shake it like you just don't care
Just shake it like you just don't care

[Verse 1: 2Pac]
I'm a well known classic case, call me basket case
We down to mash with a ski mask down your face
Prolly get your cash elevate to a faster rate
They wanna blast while I last in this tragic place
Prolly be classic I laugh at they fake ass as a prank
And make the pain merciless and tragic
But they don't wanna get they ass kicked
My competitions runnin' til they last
Never get they casket played
And drunk folks living learn the truth
Boo don't trust your friends, niggas turn on you
True get your buzz on..

Tupac Amaru Shakur (June 16, 1971 – September 13, 1996), known by his stage names 2Pac and Makaveli, was an actor and a highly influential rapper who is considered by many to be the greatest of all-time due to the revolutionary spirit and thug passion he mixed into his music. During his music career, he made appearances in movies such as his acclaimed debut in Juice (1992), Poetic Justice (1993), and Above the Rim (1994).

Born in Harlem, New York City to Black Panther Party members Billy Garland and Afeni Shakur, Tupac would later move to Baltimore before settling in the Bay Area cities of Oakland and Marin City in the late 1980s. There, he joined his first rap group Strictly Dope with Ray Luv before connecting with Shock G and Digital Underground. He was a roadie and backup dancer for the group before his breakthrough performance on their 1991 song “Same Song.”

2Pac released his debut album 2Pacalypse Now in 1991, which featured intense storytelling on singles such as “Trapped” and “Brenda’s Got a Baby.” His sophomore album Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z featured one of his signature songs, the Digital Underground-assisted “I Get Around.” After working on the Thug Life group album in 1994, 2Pac released Me Against the World the following year, which is considered by many to be his best album, peaking at #1 on the Billboard 200 and receiving a Grammy nomination—all while he sat in prison.
