Tupac Shakur is back!....kind of. This past weekend, the Coachella 2012 fans were shocked to see Tupac rise from the stage and perform along side Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre. Originally, fans were told Nate Dog was going to be performing at this event, also a rapper that has passed on. How did this happen? Hologram technology.
The creator of the hologram has said it took over four months to put it together. He will not release the technical parts of the creation, but he did say that the cost was between 100 and 400 thousand dollars. Also, Tupac's mother was in full support of this creation.
There are now rumors of Snoop, Dre, and Tupac to go on a tour together.
Personally, I think this is awesome. If I was at Coachella when Tupac began to talk, I would've lost it. It's so cool to see technology being able to do this. One question is how long will it be before they bring back Biggie? Are they already in the process?
Also you have to think about the people who have enough money that can get a hologram created for personal uses. In my opinion, I think this is good for the industry, but at the same time there might come a time where it is cheaper to pay a hologram than a real life artist at a show. Hopefully, this never happens.
I'm Stumpy, and that's what I have to say. Comments, questions, or any kind of feedback is very much appreciated.
