LOS ANGELES — Tupac Shakur has risen multiple times since his death in 1996.
He appeared through his posthumous book "The Rose That Grew From Concrete," which highlighted selections from his then-unreleased collection of poetry. His likeness was taken to the big screen in the 2017 biopic "All Eyez on Me," the drama that attempted to document his illustrious life story. And perhaps most convincingly, he appeared at the Coachella main stage beside Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg in 2012, rapping "Hail Mary" and "2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted" in holographic form beside the two West Coast legends.
Now, he's back to life once again through "Wake Me When I'm Free," the traveling museum exhibit that chronicles the life and legacy of the revolutionary artist. Located at L.A. Live, the exhibit was created in tandem with the Shakur estate, with the initial idea coming from his mother, Afeni Shakur, before she died in 2016.
