Is Tupac alive?
The answer is yes, at least if we are to believe the growing number of pics showing the beloved rapper at various celeb gatherings. There are also further clues that the death we all mourned 20 years ago was nothing but an elaborate hoax.
The first place to look is Tupac’s stage name. Makaveli makes an explicit reference to the Renaissance politician who wrote about faking one’s death to fool the enemies.
Indeed, Tupac had a lot to gain from his premature exit from the stage. A basic rule of the music industry tells that a dead singer sells better than one alive. The more brutal and unexpected the death was, the higher the chances to go platinum.
Call us crazy, but those wild conspiracy theories suddenly make sense. Oh, and let’s not forget how 2Pac was cremated just a day after he was shot, with no autopsy performed, as if he wanted to vanish.

Elvis Presley might have “left the building, ” but some folks are not quite ready to accept that.
For them, the King is alive than ever, and that is not a figurative way of saying that his rock and roll ballads withstood the test of time. A conspiracy theory is claiming that the King faked his death.
The whole thing started relatively shy before turning into full-blown madness. Thousands of alleged sightings soon backed the report that a wax dummy stood in the original coffin. Therefore, Elvis joined Bigfoot as America’s most wanted and the hunt for an 82-year-old in a white jumpsuit wages on.
Even if we ignore the evidence, Elvis will have a good reason to stage his death and seek a quiet life. Being in the spotlights all the time leaves you little time and energy to enjoy your millions.
Elvis did the math and came out with a correct conclusion – money would come to him effortless if he plays dead.
