For many of us, we knew exactly where we were 21 years ago when we learned of the passing of one of the most influential voices in hip-hop, Tupac Amaru Shakur.

2pac has been celebrated and remembered throughout the years, most recently with the release of the ‘All Eyez On Me biopic,’ and now, LA native The Game has released a tribute in honor of the late rapper.

Premiering exclusively to Billboard, The Game pays homeage to Shakur with ‘Heaven 4 A Gangster.

 

“Wake up this morning & take a moment to reflect… not on things in the past you cannot alter or change, but on the experiences… what you’ve learned & how you will use them to better yourself today”. – The Game

Notably being inspired by Pac and his music, The Game’s flow and voice is extremely reminiscent of the late Shakur and on the track Game spits:

We earned this sh*t, we learned this sh*t / City used to be all white, look how we turned this sh*t / Tupac turning in his grave from all this nonsense/ A little solider ain’t from Bompton

The Game has also been showing love for Pac, more recently, through a couple Insatagam posts with a few special messages.

 

Make sure you enjoy life. You really never know when your last breathe will be. #LOVEislove
