Tupac Shakur has been physically gone for 25 years, but his legacy is eternal. On Tuesday (November 2), the Shakur Estate announced an upcoming immersive museum experience dubbed Tupac Shakur. Wake Me When I’m Free, another chance to explore the life and untimely death of the Death Row Records legend.
Described in a press release as “part museum, part art installation, part sensory experience,” the exhibit aims to take attendees “through a myriad of surround sound spaces, rich with rarities embedded in technology and delve into the greater meaning of his activism, music, and revolutionary art.”
Wake Me When I’m Free is led by Chief Curator and Vice President of Curatorial Affairs at The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Nwaka Onwusa, and award-winning Creative Director Jeremy Hodges and his firm Project Art Collective.
“It is a privilege to be a part of such a monumental project,” Hodges says. “Tupac Shakur was my Malcolm [X]; he was my Martin [Luther King Jr.], and to build an experience that honors such a prolific man, cannot be summed up in words.
“We wanted to create a memorable experience that will inspire you to be better than when you walked in, all while leaving you with the knowledge that he was a true revolutionary spirit.”
Tupac Shakur. Wake Me When I’m Free opens on January 21, 2022 in Los Angeles at The Canvas @ L.A. Live, Georgia Street and Olympic Boulevard and run for a limited time only.
Pre-sale tickets go on sale Tuesday (November 9) at 10 a.m. PST on the Wake Me When I’m Free website. General tickets go on sale November 12 at 10 a.m. PST.
A coward dies a thousand deaths
A soldier dies but once……
Tupac was a coward though. He should have set up a fair one with Orlando rather than sucker punching him. Probably still be alive today
How many so called rappers have sucker punched someone, and there was a lot more to it than that as we all know. Nice try I was just quoting his lyrics and showing respect. F#cking rude a$$ keyboard thugs think your word means something. Don’t drop the soap homie, you’ll be tasting Suge’s bologna
lots of “cowards” buckin at actual popo in defense of a citizen
Hey suge soap droppin celly, shut yo mouth when you speak on a Revolutionary like the Home and our big brother PAC – AKA -MAKAVELI. Cuz if he were here in the physical form u would be quite as a church mouse and u eating on suge knights dick which if u know shit u would know suge was jealous of Tupac and why he attached his bitch ass to PAC cus he wanted the fame n love that mr Shakur was gaining and why PAC was killed.. He made security and pacs crew not holding they heaters and Orlando had his bitch ass uncle FROM LAPD on suges payroll n part of security. That’s why PAC got shot cuz Suge is a bitch n set Tupac up. So shut your bitch ass up or come catch the fade BIOTCH
it is as if we only know about tupac and b.i.g. today just because they were trying to kill each other.
tickets for sale most likely none of which will go to anyone pac knew or would support, damm shame what they did to this mans legacy
Still a slave. Working for free. Don’t wake him yet.
I love u PAC ❤ ❤ ❤
One true legend
