Tupac once said, “Ain’t a woman alive that could take my mama’s place” in his classic song “Dear Mama,” which was dedicated to his mom, Afeni Shakur. TheIndustry.biz is sad to announce that Afeni Shakur has died at the age of 69 years old. As mother’s day soon approaches, I’m sure most of us can relate to Tupac’s words as to how he felt about his mom.
Marin County deputies responded to Shakur’s home in Sausalito, Calif., Monday night after died just before 10:30 p.m.
Shakur, born Alice Faye Williams, changed her name when Black Panther movement. She was also an American music businesswoman, philanthropist, political activist and well-known Black Panther. She was so instrumental in keeping the legacy of her son shining in a positive light. She created a record label named Amaru Records to release Tupac’s unreleased recordings after winning a court battle with Death Row Records.
In addition to loving her son immensely, Afeni Shakur made guest appearances, lectured, and more, traveling the US. On February 6, 2007, TheIndustry.biz would like to send our condolences to her family, friends, and loved ones. She will be missed. Originally posted on 2016-05-03 06:24:23
