2Pac, also known as Tupac Shakur, was a pivotal figure in hip-hop and a cultural icon, even at the young age of 25. His impact on music and society was profound, characterized by his powerful lyrics that addressed issues like racism, poverty, and violence.

During this time, he was closely associated with Snoop Dogg and Suge Knight. Snoop Dogg, who rose to fame in the early '90s, was part of the West Coast rap scene that 2Pac was heavily involved in. Their friendship was significant, especially during the height of the East Coast-West Coast rivalry in hip-hop.

Suge Knight, the co-founder of Death Row Records, played a crucial role in 2Pac's career. After 2Pac was released from prison in 1995, he signed with Death Row, which helped elevate his status in the industry. Under Suge's management, 2Pac released some of his most iconic albums, including "All Eyez on Me," which solidified his legacy.

Tragically, 2Pac's life was cut short when he was shot and killed in 1996 at the age of 25, leaving behind a lasting legacy in music and culture. His collaborations with artists like Snoop Dogg and the influence of Suge Knight continue to be discussed and analyzed in the context of hip-hop history.

The combination of their talents and the tumultuous environment of the '90s created a unique moment in music that is still remembered today. 2Pac’s artistry and the relationships he built during his short life remain influential to this day.

West Coast Rapper Saafir has passed away today at age 54. He was most known for his role as “Harold” in Menace II Society & as a member of Digital Underground with Tupac in the early 90s.

Boyz II Men (pronounced boys to men) is an American vocal harmony group from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, best known for emotional ballads and a cappella harmonies.
The group consists of four members:
1.Nathan Morris: He is one of the founding members and serves as a baritone for the group, adding depth to their harmonies.
2.Wanya Morris: He is one of the lead vocalists, known for his powerful and emotive singing style.
3.Shawn Stockman: He is another lead vocalist who brings a smooth tenor voice to the group, contributing to their signature sound.
4.Michael McCary: He was the bass vocalist, whose deep voice added richness and fullness to the group's harmonies.
Together, these four members created a unique and soulful sound that led to Boyz II Men’s immense success in the 1990s with hits like "End of the Road" and "I'll Make Love to You."

1897: African American Buffalo Soldiers test bikes for Army on 1,900 mile expedition
In 1897, 20 soldiers, an army surgeon and a reporter led by Lt. James A. Moss, rode bicycles from Fort Missoula in Montana to St. Louis, Missouri. The trip was made as an experiment to see whether the bicycle could serve a useful purpose in the Army.
1890s America was also experiencing a bicycle-craze due to the recent invention of the "safety bicycle" (a bicycle with wheels of equal size and chain driven). Accounts make it clear that Moss had a romantic streak, and enjoyed the outdoors, as well as what he referred to as "the poetry of cycling".
The 41-day journey to St. Louis was 1,900 miles and took the men through Montana, Wyoming, South Dakota, Nebraska and Missouri. In the 1890s, the Army was segregated, with most black units (a.k.a "Buffalo Soldiers") serving in the isolated outposts in the West. Fort Missoula, at that time, was home to the 25th Infantry, a black regiment. Moss was a Southerner and recent graduate of West Point. He was only twenty-five years old. He and some of the '97 riders had done trips before. In the summer of 1896, eight of them rode first to the Mission Mountains, north of Missoula and then Yellowstone Park. For the St. Louis trip, Moss picked a path that mostly followed the railroads -- the Northern Pacific to Billings and then various arms of the Burlington the rest of the way.
Fortunately, Eddie Boos, a nineteen-year-old, rode along with the Corps to St. Louis and wired lengthy reports to the local Missoula paper, as well as newspapers all over the United States.
Combining his accounts with those of Lt. Moss, we get a fairly detailed picture of the trip. Sadly, no accounts from the soldiers, themselves, are known to exist. We only know them through Boos and Moss's somewhat stereotyped descriptions. Nevertheless, what comes through is a group of highly dedicated, tough, resilient, men who at the end of a long, hard ride still had a keen sense of humor and enjoyment of life*. A year after the trip they proved their mettle as soldiers, securing key victories during the Spanish-American War. Boos tells us that the Corps was escorted by hundreds as they drew closer to the finish of their journey and were welcomed by over 10,000 upon reaching their goal in Forest Park in St. Louis.
