I’m still aghast that Tupac made $7M while he was alive, let alone postmortem. Even given the fact that, in my opinion, most rap just barely qualifies as music, there are (were?) far better [ahem] artists out there than him… Is this going to be just like media artists, where once they die, their works become that much more valuable?
