{"product_id":"inside-a-thugs-heart","title":"Inside a Thug's Heart","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn improbable window into one of Black America's most iconic figures, this 20th anniversary re-release celebrates the vulnerable, troubled, impassioned human behind hip-hop legend Tupac Shakur.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 1995, one year before Tupac Shakur was shot dead in Las Vegas, he was jailed for two months inside New York City’s notorious Rikers Island. While there, he received a letter from a stranger – Angela Ardis, acting on a casual bet with her friends. She included her photo and phone number... and soon found herself answering a call from Tupac himself. Remarkably, their near-daily contact grew into a complex kinship of souls that neither could define – and touched both in unexpected ways.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlive in letters and original poems – some available nowhere else –Tupac’s ever-relevant heart beats within these pages. Playful, sensual, and serious, he gives insightful observations on music, prison, and life’s uncertainties – and his dreams for a future that would soon be tragically cut short. In this moving, one-of-a-kind tribute, generations of fans can experience a profound connection to the mind and unbroken spirit of a passionate, unpredictable musical icon.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Turnaround","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":50445862142283,"sku":"2199475","price":26.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/81zcnWznrLL._SY522__9d90e737_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727047849","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/products\/inside-a-thugs-heart","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
