Today marks what would have been Tupac Shakur’s 39^th birthday.  In the fall of 1996, Shakur was fatally shot in Las Vegas and days later died on September 16 of his injuries while hospitalized. In tribute, Terry Urban has released The 16^th of June, download and tracklist afte the jump.

An East Harlem native, Shakur spent much of his childhood growing up in New York City and Baltimore, MD before making the move to Marin City, California after his sophomore year of high school. During his high school career on both coasts, Shakur developed an appreciation for the arts, often partaking in ballet, acting, jazz and poetry.

After a brief stint in the hip-hop group, Digital Underground in 1990, Tupac began his solo rap career with debut, 2Pacalypse Now in 1991. Although it did not receive much commercial success, it marked the beginning of a very lucrative career for Shakur. He went on to become one of the highest selling artists in the United States with chart-topping albums Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z., Me Against the World, All Eyez on Me and The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory.  Additionally, Shakur took to acting and landed roles in the acclaimed films Juice, Poetic Justice and Above the Rim. Even more, Shakur’s posthumous projects— R U Still Down?, Until the End of Time and Better Dayz—  sold a few million copies each.

In tribute of Shakur and his legacy, Terry Urban has released The 16^th of June: A Tupac Shakur Celebration. Enjoy.

Even in a recession Tupac’s career is still doing better than yours–film career that is. According to wooha and HHDX, the late Tupac Shakur wrote a screen play titled Live 2 Die while in prison in 1995 for sexual assualt charges and is currently slated for release in 2010. Couldn’t have Biggie stealing all the shine!

The script had been shopped around by mother, Afeni Shakur for the past few years and was picked up by Insomnia Productions, the producers of HBO’s “Rome.”

Here’s a synopsis: “A charismatic young man at the dawn of adulthood spirals down the wrong path in life and is brought into the underworld by his once trusted mentor, only to become one of the most powerful and feared kingpins in the city. Eventually his conscience gets the better of him and he is driven to self redemption in life… and love.”

Sounds like the dwindling music industry hasn’t effected rappers’ careers postmortem.

We couldn’t resist. Here’s D.Chappelle’s video for the song Tupac wrote a really long time ago (in ’94).
