Enjoy..!! In 1994, Entertainment Weekly writer Benjamin Svetkey asked Tupac Shakur where he saw himself in 10 years. Best case: in a cemetery. Not in a cemetery. Sprinkled in ashes, smoked up by my homies. Worst case, he corrects himself, I mean thats the worst case. Thats the worst case. Thats the worst case. Where Does Tupac Rank on Our 100 Greatest Artists of All Time? This interview has resurfaced thanks to Blank on Blank, a PBS web series that animates snippets of journalists interviews. In this installment, the iconic rapper muses on life, death and success in March 1994. At the time, Shakur was already a successful musician and actor, garnering attention from critics while at the center of the East Coast vs. West Coast hip-hop feud. If I was white I would have been like John Wayne, Shakur explains. Somebody who pulled himself up from their bootstraps. From poverty. From welfare. Now I am kissing Janet Jackson . Im doing movies. I feel like a tragic hero in a Shakespeare play, you know what Im saying?
