Westwood: No more Tupac records coming

Tim Westwood has revealed there is no more music to come from the late rapper Tupac Shakur.

The hip-hop hero died in 1996 but since then seven records have been released under his name, from previously unused material.

However, the Radio 1 DJ and rap fan told the Daily Mirror there was none left.

He explained: “There’s not gonna be anymore Tupac albums. The vaults have run out.”

Westwood, who named Notorious BIG and Tupac as his all-time favourite musicians, also wrote off the conspiracy theory that the rapper's death had been faked.

“Tupac, may he rest in peace, is well and truly gone,” he commented. “But he is outselling a lot of new rappers from the grave without a question of a doubt.”
