Dying at a young age, Tupac left his fans with many questions surrounding his life, mentality, emotions, and feelings. Tupac’s connection and feelings on the Illuminati can be considered as a Tupac conspiracy. Tupac was the celebrity that put the term Killuminati meaning on the map. After this death fans started analyzing every lyric he ever rapped and made their own conclusions. What he sang was what he felt and visualized the world according to his beliefs and thinking. Tupac was the only man who was believing in self and not the others at his times. People wanted to stay in touch with him till eternity. Tupac now has built a place in heart for his fans. His craziness to rap for his fans made him more popular but besides getting popular a strategy for his conspiracy was being prepared. Moreover, Tupac’s friends thought that he had premonitions of his death and hence the conspiracy. One can clearly understand what he sang and why.

Influences
He had enjoyed the albums and songs and was influenced by English and Irish pop musicians as a teenager such as Kate Bush, Culture Club, and Sinead O Connor.

All Eyes On Me was a change of style from his earlier works; while it still contained socially conscious thoughts, Shakur’s album was heavily influenced by party tracks and tended to have a more healthy and feeling for fortune type of vibe than his first albums.
