Tupac Shakur, who has sold over 75 million records worldwide, is one of the best-selling music artists of all time. Before his untimely death in 1996, Shakur penned and initialed this “Solitude” poem in black marker on an 8.5 x 11 notebook page that reads:



“It drives me crazy I’m in a constant depressed mood

People say that they’re friends but I’m stuck in this solitude

Escape I cannot because I’m lost in my own pain

Fighting 4 breath but nothing is gained

I’m Hearing lots of voices but they’re all saying me

Trapped, I am in solitude from here til eternity.”



This item comes with two signed and notarized affidavits from Charles Fuller (Partner of Tupac Shakur in Out Da Gudda Records) who personally received the poem from Shakur. And Atron Gregory (President of TNT Records) attesting to the authenticity of this poem penned by Shakur. Due to lack of exemplars, you are bidding on this item based on the affidavits provided. Charles Fuller was a childhood friend and close confidant of Tupac's, he later became his manager. Fuller had this and other works of Tupac at the time of Tupac's passing.
