During his final year, Tupac Shakur decided to reinvent himself. Studying the workings of political theorist, Niccolo Machiavelli, Tupac decided to change his stage name to Makaveli for his sixth studio album, Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory. In the years since Tupac Shakur’s death, many rappers have adopted his moves.
N.O.R.E. is among the emcees who was making moves during the height of Tupac Shakur’s career. Showing his longevity, N.O.R.E. remains one of hip hop’s biggest names long after Tupac Shakur died. Change comes with longevity and N.O.R.E. made a major change when he decided to release his Student of the Game album.
Coming into 2013, N.O.R.E. revealed he would go under the pseudonym, P.A.P.I., for his new album. Promoting the new album, N.O.R.E. has collaborations with many of the biggest names in hip hop. French Montana and Ron Browz are among the rappers working with N.O.R.E. on Student of the Game, which he told MTV News was due on April 16.
