What does makaveli mean and who is he?
Tupac Shakur (2pac) created Makaveli as a replacement for what
he believed was himself to be reincarnated. Makaveli was to live on
after Tupac's death, as he knew he would soon die. His newer
version would give Tupac vengeance over all enemies and foes to
manifest his redemption. Makaveli was introduced on the All Eyez on
Me album and persist on all albums after. Just as Tupac was
cultivated in the penitentiary system so was Makaveli. From the
reading of Machiavelli's book, The Prince, this would create a
platform for his deceptive war tactics. A platform to destroy enemy
rappers and an exit to Death Row Records would give Tupac the
ultimate reward; invincibility!
