The late West Coast legend 2Pac will honor his growing legacy with a street named in his honor.

Oakland’s City Council have voted to rename a portion of MacArthur Boulevard between Grand Avenue and Van Buren Avenue to “Tupac Shakur Way.” 

Although 2Pac was born on the East Coast, his career started in Oakland when he was a roadie and background dancer for Digital Underground. He also created the majority of his legendary albums in California, including 1991’s 2Pacalypse Now, 1993’s Strictly For My N.*.*.*.*.Z., 1995’s Me Against The World, and 1996’s All Eyez On Me.
