Smarter Video Review now playing for this product:

The Rose That Grew From Concrete

His talent was unbounded, a raw force that commanded attention and respect.

His death was tragic -- a violent homage to the power of his voice.

His legacy is indomitable -- remaining vibrant and alive.

Here now, newly discovered, are Tupac's most honest and intimate thoughts conveyed through the pure art of poetry -- a mirror into his enigmatic life and its many contradictions.

Written in his own hand at the age of nineteen, they embrace his spirit, his energy...and his ultimate message of hope.

From: Amazon Posted: Oct 26, 2007 Type: User Review A Brilliant Poet and Book for Students and Teachers!!!!

Who would have ever thought that Tupac Shakur left a book of poetry that would awaken the senses? In the book on one side, it just ordinary writing while the other side is the typed formal version. Tupac Shakur as a rapper is nothing like the poet...
