PHILADELPHIA (CelebrityAccess) – Items owned by Tupac Shakur have been donated to Temple University, according to The Associated Press.
Among the items donated were a bullet-dented golden medallion the rapper was wearing during a shooting incident that took place in 1994, handwritten lyrics for famed songs “It Ain’t Easy” and “I Ain’t Mad At Cha,” the diamond earing the rapper wore while pictured on the cover of the album All Eyez On Me, and handwritten track listings for unreleased albums Shakur was working on prior to his death in a drive-by shooting in 1996, reports AP.
The items, which were donated to the collection by Runnemede, New Jersey-based Goldin Auctions, will be displayed in the Charles L. Blockson Afro-American Collection located on the school’s main campus.
The collection currently consists of roughly 500,000 items detailing “the global black experience.”
