Tupac Shakur Way unveiled in Oakland during street renaming ceremony honoring late hip-hop legend

The long-awaited ceremony to rename a street in Oakland, CA, honoring the late Tupac Shakur. It comes after a unanimous vote by the city council to do so. Shakur was born in Harlem and later lived in Baltimore, Maryland; and in Marin City, California, but credited Oakland as the location where he got his “game” and launched his career, according to legislation authorizing the commemorative street renaming.
