Netflix to Release Previously Unpublished Tupac Shakur Interview
A four-part project will feature the rapper's conversation with radio host Angie Martinez, recorded months before his death.
Netflix will present the four-part project *The Tupac Tapes With Angie Martinez* on November 27, featuring a previously unpublished interview with Tupac Shakur. The conversation took place in 1996, when the rapper was at the center of the rivalry between the East Coast and West Coast U.S. music scenes.
The interview was recorded by American radio host Angie Martinez, but at the time, she decided not to release it due to concerns that some of Shakur's statements could provoke further conflicts and violence. After the musician's death, publishing the material became an even more difficult decision.
Martinez now believes this conversation holds historical value and deserves public attention. The project's creators intend not only to showcase the rapper's most resonant statements but also to explain the circumstances under which the discussion took place.
The series will also feature appearances by Charlamagne tha God, RZA, Joe Budden, Monie Love, Lil Cease, Matt Barnes, and other representatives of the music industry and hip-hop culture.
