Michael Jai White discussed the complex image of late rapper Tupac Shakur, arguing that the perception of him as a ‘gangster’ was largely a constructed image and not representative of the diverse aspects of his character or reality. He argued that the effects of this performance resonated beyond Tupac himself and influenced young people, who are often persuaded by and embrace ‘gangster culture.’ Additionally, the interview delved into Tupac’s complicated family background, revealing how his assumed fatherhood identity deeply influenced the rapper’s own personal identity and projected image. Michael, however, highlighted that such ‘performances’ are not unique to Tupac, but rather common in the music industry, citing examples such as Snoop Dogg and Ice Cube, who initially presented themselves as hardcore gangsters but later revealed more complex personalities.
