2Pac Honored In Atlanta

On what would've been the 40th anniversary of the late rapper Tupac Shakur, several celebrities and artists gathered at the Tupac Amaru Shakur Center in Stone Mountain, GA to pay tribute to the fallen rapper/actor, who was shot and later died in September 1996.

Meek Mill, Bun B, Warren G, Too Short, jazz singer/producer Roy Ayers, Rick Ross and Erykah Badu were among those in attendance. The event was hosted by Mike Epps.

"For a lot of lil' dudes in a single parent home [like me] with my mother, Tupac played father for a lot of dudes like me," Rick Ross said to the crowd. "Tupac was the first one that showed me how to be fully committed. I took [aspects of him like] his [loyalty], to his hard work, his ethic, his family with me. When we talk about his record sales, let's not forget the role he played to all the little Black boys around the world."

"My first reaction to Tupac was he's not a rapper, he's not an actor, he's a savior of sorts. But he came at a time when people weren't looking for a savior, they were looking for someone who looked like them," she said. "But saviors, sometimes are just doing the work, they are just doing their job."

Cool Kids Release Date Set

The Cool Kids have finally announced the release date for their long-delayed debut album,When Fish Ride Bicycles. The album will be released on June 12th via Green Label Sound.

The Chicago duo's battles with former label Chocolate Industries led to the extensive delays, while the Kids attempted to keep their buzz alive with mixtapes. The Cool Kids were one of the most talked-about indie acts in 2007 and 2008, only to watch a lot of their momentum die with the album continually being pushed back.

Bun B., Ghostface Killah, Mayer Hawthorne, Travis Barker and Asher Roth are all featured on the project.

Several notable rappers will be participating in Afeni Shakur's celebration of 2Pac's 40th birthday this June. Bun B., 8 Ball and MJG, DJ Drama, Too $hort and Erykah Badu will all be taking part in the festivities in Atlanta on June 16th.

Actor/comedian Mike Epps has been named host of the celebration, and officials have officially declared June 16th "Tupac Shakur Day."

"I am greatly honored to have been invited by Afeni Shakur to celebrate her son's 40th birthday," Bady said via statement. "I do not take this honor for granted."

“I’m looking forward to another year of preserving Tupac’s legacy by celebrating his life with his fans and furthering his causes by supporting his organization,” Mike Epps said.
