Tupac's high school Love letter FOR SALE for $35K
Tupac Shakur came on STRONG to a high school classmate, confessing about heartbreak and his love of Prince in an emotional letter that’s now up for sale.
He wrote the 1988 letter to a girl in his drama class he called “Beethoven.” She says that was his nickname for her because she played piano. It’s clear from the letter, ‘Pac was already a deep cat back then.
He wrote, “As u will soon find out, I do not spare words, I say what I feel. So if something I say scares u please don’t panic because I tend 2 get over emotional.” He also said, “It’s almost like I’ve known you 4 years.”
That rap worked on “Beethoven” she says they were in love. Tupac’s letter, and one from “Beethoven” explaining their relationship are being sold by memorabilia dealer Moments in Time for $35,000.
"He was good, I mean really good," she wrote in a letter on the auction site. "When Tupac's turn came, suddenly you understood what we were reading. He took something as difficult as Shakespeare and gave it such a contemporary voice."The two became fast friends and "used to sit together and commiserate about our unrequited love," she recalled
Tupac's letter is being sold for $35,000.
Even though Tupac told the piano princess they had a lot in common
(a mutual love of Prince and candles) their short-lived romance fizzled out after he dropped out of high school and became famous.
"The second and last time I saw him and I was driving out of Marin City and he was in a car," she wrote. "He leaned his head out the window and yelled my name as he reached out and waved to me enthusiastically."
Beethoven wasn't a big fan of Pac after that.“I didn't know that man who tattooed "Thug Life" on his chest and was gunned down on a Las Vegas Street," she said, referencing his 1996 murder. "I never really cared for the music he recorded — it was nothing like those freestyles I remember in front of our school. I knew the kid who made me understand Shakespeare and who didn’t care that he dressed different or wore his hair different."
