Did you know when Tupac was alive he would always wear a bulletproof vest? But on the day he died he supposedly for some strange reason didn’t wear his bulletproof vest. Also there were rumors that Elvis faked his own death in order to escape his celebrity status and be free to live the rest of his life out of the gaze of the public eye. Couple of these theories were basically saying that Elvis and Tupac faked their deaths and are considered to be alive still. When Elvis Presley was pronounced dead was at the age of forty-two. The day he died witnesses said that he was last seen playing a game of racquet ball. But when they found his body it was face down on the floor of a bathroom at Graceland at around 2:30 p.m. on August 16th, 1977. The final decision of the cause of his death was he had a heart disease but also he had many prescription drugs that he was taking at the time so that might have also been a part of the cause as well. Many believed that he faked his own death to just escaped from his famous life and just live a normal life. One of the theories of why he could still be alive because on his headstone his middle name (Aron) was spelt as Aaron. Another …show more content…
theory was that one of his cousin’s took a photo of him in his coffin and people pointed out that some features didn’t even look like Elvis himself. People believed that it was actually a wax dummy of him and it weighed over 900 pounds. In other words, Tupac theories were kind of similar to Elvis’s.
Tupac died on September 13th, 1996 due to gunshot wounds suffered in a Las Vegas drive-by shooting. Twelve shots were fired at the time but only four shots strucked Tupac. Doctors did emergency surgery which did save Tupac’s life that night and announced that his chances of recovery had improved but on September 13th died due to the fact of his wounds. Usually Tupac would always wear a bulletproof vest basically 24/7. But just for some odd reason he wasn’t wearing it when he got shot that day. The white Cadillac that was part of the drive-by was supposedly never found also. Wouldn’t you think he was alive too if you would have thought about it? Another theory is that Suge Knight, which is the person who was driving Tupac, killed
Tupac. These theories have been going on for years. Many of the theories are ridiculous or there are actually some that make you think if they really are alive or not. Nobody could ever know without the theory being actually proven. So all of these theories about Elvis and Tupac have not been proven at all. They have only found bits and pieces that could possibly be true. Most theories about famous people are mostly about how they could be still alive today. You can mostly say they are just rumors about them never being dead at all. Could Elvis have really went through all the trouble to fake his own just to get away from the fame? Or could Tupac really have survived the drive-by and just faked his death as well? People will never know until the theories are proven.
Tupac was at a Mike Tyson fight against Bruce Seldon at the MGM Grand Hotel, in Las Vegas, Nevada on September 7, 1996.

Six months later on March 9, 1997, Biggie was sitting in a Chevy Suburban outside after the Soul Train Music Awards when he was shot four times in a drive-by shooting in Los Angeles, California. He died about an hour

She gave birth to him 2 months after she was released from Women’s House of Detentions in Grenwich Village. She was charged with conspiracy to bomb several New York public locations and just had her bail revoked. In court she represented herself and won against the state of New York in a surprising turn out. In Incan dialect, his name Tupac Amaru means “shining serpent” and Shakur is Arabic for “thankful to God.” For most of his childhood his crack addicted mother shuffled Tupac between the ghettos of Harlem and the Bronx. Young Tupac began his performance career with the 127th Street Ensemble and then enrolled Baltimore School for the Arts where he was educated in ballet and acting. Tupac was forced to drop out of the school because he had to move to California with his mother, where his criminal career began.

He was involved in the shooting of two off duty police officers, although the chargers were later dropped. He was also convicted of rape, and sentenced to 5 years in Clinton Correctional Facilities.
“When Elvis died results soon were identified several pharmaceutical drugs in Elvis’s system with codeine being ten times the therapeutic level. This started accusations of a cover-up and suggesting conspiracy theories of a sinister criminal act. Pushing 40 years after, modern medicine and forensics took a new look at the Presley case facts and indicated that something entirely different from a heart attack or a drug overdose really killed the King of Rock & Roll” (Rodgers). Many people believe that Elvis provoked to his fans that drugs were ok. Even though Elvis made a mistake, he has so many exceptional influences to cancel out that mistake. Wayne Dyer once said, “When you judge another, you do not define them, you define yourself.” Elvis was a pleasing, religious, uplifting man. Do not judge him for personal mistakes he

He has a lot of self-values that people are influenced about
While “Paul is dead” was very popular on college campuses, it reached widespread knowledge in the fall of 1969, when an anonymous person telephoned a radio DJ and announced that McCartney was dead. The accepted story of his alleged death occurred on November 9th, 1966, when McCartney – high on LSD – stormed out of a recording session for Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band after arguing with the other Beatles. Subsequently, McCartney decided to drive aimlessly through London. Distracted from a red light due to his anger and drug-induced state, a car going through the intersection collided with McCartney's and set the car aflame.

Tupac was allegedly rushed to the hospital and treated for severe gunshot wounds. 2Pac died six days later on September 16,1996, after his mom, Afeni, took him off of life support. This is the news story that everyone hears how 2Pac “died”.
For thirty-one years, the "Paul Death Hoax" has intrigued a horde of Beatles' fans and fanatics alike. While it's difficult to point to an absolute point of origination, there is no evidence whatsoever that the Beatles themselves had anything to do with the story, although many claim that the Beatles intended it to be a joke the their fans. However, clues, which seem so cleverly arranged, are random coincidences or inaccurate interpretations of existing facts, and all Beatles have denied that they were in any way involved with the deceit. This leads people to believe that maybe Paul did die in
Tupac Amaru Shakur was an African-American rapper, poet, and record producer during the 1990’s. In his adolescent years, he attended the Baltimore School for the Arts where he took acting and dance classes, like ballet. He was taught radical politics by his mother, which helped him develop ideas about topics he would later use in his many works. At an early age, Tupac had seen the injustices of the real world. His mother was a former Black Panther activist who turned to substance abuse during Tupac’s childhood. Aside from that, he and his mother also moved many times while they lived together in New York City. While Tupac was in Baltimore, he discovered rap; not long after, he and his mother moved to the West Coast where he joined the rap group
Overall, Even though was plagued by legal problems and incarceration between 1993 and 1995, he would emerge as one of the most important voices in the hip-hop community.

Many people have researched into this. They have uncovered unbelievable facts and have developed extremely intriguing theories. Theories which get even professionals to rethink their opinions on his death actually happening.Even the most skeptical people have changed their opinions. I am not writing this essay to change people opinions. I am writing this essay to bring out all of the facts and theories. By doing this I can perhaps bring people to see what can be a monstrous coincidence or the greatest scam I have ever heard of in my life.
It is so hard to become a rapper. But it is harder to become a Great Rapper. I believe Tupac is a great rapper. Not only a great rapper, but the greatest rapper. Like Snoop Dogg had said, “Tupac was many different things at once. Hardheaded and intellectual, courageous and afraid, revolutionary and….oh yeah, don’t get it f***ed up, gangsta.” To be a great rapper, you must have impact, commercial success, be good at song writing, a lot of performances and live shows and lastly, hella good rapping. The first song I heard from tupac was “ambitions az a ridah and all eyes on me” and it was real original so I went and listened to ‘Brenda got a baby’ which made me think “dammmmm he good, he good as hell”
