In this exclusive interview, Mopreme Shakur opens up like never before.

We dive deep into the revolutionary legacy of his father, Mutulu Shakur, his lifelong impact on the fight for Black liberation, and the powerful influence of his brother, the late icon Tupac Shakur.

Mopreme speaks candidly about the ongoing questions surrounding Tupac’s death, the conspiracy theories that have never faded, and why he believes both the U.S. government and Sean Combs (aka Puffy) deserve deeper scrutiny.

We also discuss Mopreme’s new book, This Thug’s Life, where he shares personal stories, truths from the streets, and reflections on growing up inside a family that changed the world.
