"HOW LONG THEY WILL MOURN ME?"
LAS VEGAS (AP) - Tupac Shakur, the rapper whose raw lyrics drew on the rage of a coarse urban existence and seemed a blueprint of his own violent life, died Friday from wounds suffered in a drive-by shooting. He was 25. Shakur, known as 2Pac, was one of the most successful - and scorned - "gangsta" rappers. Fans bought millions of records; others denounced him and gangsta rap lyrics for glorifying violence and drugs and degrading women. He was pronounced dead at 4:03 p.m. PDT at University Medical Center of respiratory failure and cardio pulmonary arrest, a hospital spokesman said. Marion "Suge" Knight, chairman of Los Angeles-based Death Row Records, was driving Shakur on East Flamingo Road when a gunman pulled up along side them and emptied a semiautomatic pistol into the passenger side. Shakur was hit four times in the chest and abdomen. Police believe he was the target. Knight was hit by shrapnel but was treated and released from the hospital. It's been six days since Shakur was shot. He underwent surgery twice on Sunday and once on Monday, and his right lung was removed. George Pryce, Death Row Records spokesman, said they were preparing a statement. "Give people a moment to get over the shock."
