In this electrifying and deeply insightful episode of Two Talking Fools, we go beyond the myth and legend to explore the real life of one of hip-hop’s most complex and enduring figures: Tupac Shakur. We sit down with New York Times bestselling author Jeff Pearlman — the critically acclaimed biographer behind Only God Can Judge Me: The Many Lives of Tupac Shakur — for an exclusive conversation that peels back the layers of Tupac’s life, art, contradictions, and legacy.
Jeff Pearlman spent hundreds of hours interviewing more than 600 people who knew Tupac personally — from friends and family to collaborators, critics, and insiders — assembling a sweeping, definitive portrait of the man behind the music. We dig into the untold stories, the defining moments, and the human truths in Pearlman’s work, drawing from nearly 700 original interviews and never-before-published details that illuminate Tupac’s journey from Baltimore to the world stage, and the internal battles that shaped his art and identity.
Whether you’re a lifelong fan, a student of hip-hop history, or someone who just wants to understand the forces that shaped one of the most iconic figures in modern culture, this episode is a once-in-a-generation look at a life that continues to reverberate around the world. 🎧
