Summary

U ever share your soul with a strangerOnly to realize he was a long lost friend? Ever talk 2 a man like U talk with a womanAnd share what you can't with other men? --Written exclusively 4 Angela from Tupac Shakur In 1995, legendary rapper and actor Tupac Shakur was briefly incarcerated in New York City's Rikers Island prison. During his stay, Angela Ardis acted on a bet with her friends, sent him a letter, photo, and phone number. . .and soon found herself answering a phone call from Tupac himself. Remarkably, their near-daily contact grew into a complex kinship of souls that neither could define--one that touched both in unexpected ways. Now, in letters and original poems--some available nowhere else--here is Tupac as never before. Playful, sensual, and serious, he gives insightful observations on music, prison, and life's uncertainties--and his dreams for a future that would soon be tragically cut short. In this heartfelt, one-of-a-kind tribute, Tupac lives on through his words--giving every fan an unforgettable look into the mind and unbroken spirit of a passionate, unpredictable musical icon.Inside A Thug's Heart "A primary resource for things 2Pac. . .delivers insight into Tupac's private thoughts and evidence that even a successful rapper with "thug life" tattooed on his body had gentle and introspective feelings as well as smoldering resentment and rage." --Booklist "Gives us a glimpse into the heart of Tupac Shakur." --The Rawsistaz Reviewers
