Why did 2Pac change his name to Makaveli?

January 21st, 2010

Shaun K asked:


I mean, it just doesn’t make sense to me, he was already very VERY famous as ’2Pac’. It wasn’t like he had to re-brand himself or anything. I mean it would be like Eminem changing his name to somethin totally different tomorow.

    He read books while he was in prison about a guy named machiavelli, in the book he fakes his death. Tupac changed his name to makaveli and later died.

    That is why some people think tupac faked his death

    The only way to get out of his contract with Death Row, without fulfilling his contractual obligations.

    Tupac read a book written by Niccolo Macchiaveli while he was in prison, An italian who wrote about faking his own death. Tupac liked how Macchiaveli tricked the people and lead a secret life after faking his death and since then tupac took on his name for reasons that bring up a lot of discussions/heat/theories.

    TUPAC FACT: Macchiaveli, wrote about tricking his own death to get rid of his enemies, and like i said, Tupac took on the changed name “Makaveli” to “hint” his people(us) about his future life after prison and why he changed his name to Makaveli.

    This is also the reason many people beleive pac is still alive, because he left words in his songs that pointed to his death being faked like Niccolo Machiavellis. This a stronghold piece of evidence for many people who still think pac is still alive.
