One of my hero’s that I admire would be an American rapper, record producer and an actor. His name is Tupac Amaru Shakur. Also known as, 2pac. He was born June 16 1971 in East Harlem, New York City. He died on September 13 1996 in Las Vegas, NV. The cause of his death was murder. On September 7th 1996, Tupac was leaving a boxing event in Las Vegas when he was shot multiple times. Six days later, he passed away on the 25th of September. To me, my hero is someone who will never give up, even when times are hard. A hero is someone who keeps his head up high, stands up for what he believes in, who is not selfish, who helps others without being asked.
One thing that makes him stand out for me as a hero is that he always spoke what was on his mind, …show more content…
He proved tons of times that he was physically strong, but even stronger mentally. To think one of your best friends may have planned to murder you, but staying focused enough to still make music with him without fighting, shows a lot of mental strength. To me, he has shown he has courage, and he proved it to all those who doubted him no matter what the situation was that he was in.
Another thing Tupac did to make me see that he was my hero; he helped out in the community. Even though rappers had the bad reputation of being bad, and not caring about anyone else, he was the complete opposite. He helped other artists to become well known, and helped them produce music. Before his tragic death, he contributed to a charity to help raise money to keep children away from violence.
From always speaking up for what he believed and thought, to always being strong physically and mentally, to being helpful and showing his compassionate side, Tupac showed he was a hero. To be a hero is so much more than it sounds; to be a hero you have to be looked up to. You have to be able to say "I helped people without being asked to," A hero has to make a difference in the world, not make anyone seem smaller then you, but actually put them before you. To me, this is what a hero is, and to me, Tupac Shakur shown me nothing but the definition of a
