The Art of War...

You can not or should not write about TuPAC and Makaveli without at least touching on Sun Tzu's The Art of War; how it relates to Makaveli and probably most prominent-What Tupac was reading/studying while he was locked away for 9 months.

Sun Tzu has a philosophy based in fear and love, and that fear is stronger than love. Tupac believed this to be true in his own situation at the time: That it was better to be feared that to be loved. Those teachings compiled with Machievelli's teachings, mixed with his Geminiac(not sure if that's a word)personalities, I'm not sure any of us could ever really know what Tupac was up to. Maybe even himself...

Or maybe he did...;)

Makaveli...who, what, when, where, why??

The itailian philosopher wrote about deception, making people think you are doing one thing when you are actually doing another. He wrote as if it was the way for a young man to gain power and prominence...Tupac studied these principles when locked away. He felt drawn to him I'm sure...being that he too was exiled from his people...

Makaveli

First, I know it is not spelled in the correct manner in referencing the...I guess you could call him a military strategist/philosopher was live in Italy in the 14/15th century(can't recall). Niccoló Macheaveli wrote at least two books to my knowledge; The Prince and The Discourses. If if you don't know anything about about this dude, you can follow along in this blog about who he is and how he relates to Tupac Shakur.
