We are very blessed to have such great supporters of our web sites and the hip hop and literacy projects that we get involved in; and we would like to ‘thank you’ for your support and wish all of you a great holiday season and an even better 2008.

We are humbly asking for your support for the latest project from Thug Life Army Records. The project is a hip hop album titled ‘In the Shadow of an Icon’. It is a collaboration of artists who all learned and grew out of the words and teachings of the late hip hop Icon, poet, rap artist, teacher, actor and civil rights activist Tupac Shakur (2Pac).

This hip hop project contains no music by Tupac (2Pac), but it does reveal artists who grew out of the shadow of the man Tupac Shakur.

Here is the track list for ‘In the Shadow of an Icon’ and more information can be found HERE or on the Thug Life Army Records web site at HERE
