Keeping up with the theme of today in celebration of Tupac Amaru Shakur’s life, I have curated another list of the most epic Tupac movie scenes ever. These are a few classic scenes from the movies he’s starred in including Poetic Justice, Juice, Above the Rim and Nothing But Trouble. If you’re wondering where Tupac got his impeccable acting chops, you can attribute that to his attendance to Baltimore School for the Arts, where he also attended with good friend, Jada Pinkett Smith. There he studied acting, jazz, ballet and poetry.
Here are a few of the best Tupac movie moments in history that will make you a believer (if you aren’t one already).
1. Juice (1992): “You Right. I am crazy. But you know what else? I don’t give a fuck”
In this scene Bishop (Tupac Shakur) had been looking for Q (Omar Epps) for a few days and this was what happened after all of that ducking and dodging.
2. Poetic Justice (1993) – “Why you so mean?”
3. Nothing But Trouble (1991) – Same Song
4. Above the Rim (1994) – “You never did get that part right”
In this incredible scene, Birdie (Tupac Shakur) comes to the basketball court to tell his big bro Shep (Leon) good-bye and in the same scene you get to see the dynamic between the two siblings and another big brother-little brother duo playing basketball in which Birdie states: “You never did get that part right.”
Juice (1992) – “What you gonna do? Shoot me in the elevator?”
Those are the top 5 most epic Tupac movie moments that I came up with. What are some of your favorite Tupac movie scenes that I missed? Let me know in the comments! And if you’re itching to watch Poetic Justice or Juice I am pretty sure most of these can be found on Netflix.
