## Key points

- Tupac’s unaired 1996 interview will stream on Netflix from 27 November.
- Angie Martinez withheld parts over concerns about inflaming tensions.
- The four episodes will include commentary from hip-hop figures.

## Summary

Angie Martinez’s 1996 interview with Tupac Shakur, which she chose not to broadcast at the time, will be released as a four-part video podcast on Netflix on 27 November. Martinez withheld it because she feared that inflammatory comments could provoke retaliation and worsen tensions during the East Coast-West Coast rivalry.

She says the series will present the interview with context rather than focus only on its most provocative moments. Contributors from across hip-hop, including RZA, Charlamagne Tha God and Joe Budden, will offer commentary. The interview was among Shakur’s last, recorded months before he was shot in Las Vegas; he died six days later, aged 25.
