Legendary rapper Tupac left details instructions for his family including what to do with his body, after predicting his own death.

The star was shot dead in 1996 in a drive-by shooting in the Las Vegas Valley, Nevada. In a new biography of the star, it's revealed the 25-year-old rapper had predicted his death and planned out details for his family in the event he had passed, including how he wanted his body taken care of.

The new biography titled Tupac Shakur: The Authorized Biography by childhood friend and author Staci Robinson details shocking confessions about Tupac's life including his attempts at suicide.

The rapper, who shot to fame for his rap and hip hop style, was shot in 1994 five times which reportedly caused the star to fall into deep depression and then attempt to take his own life. Staci recalled that Tupac was discovered “with a shotgun in one hand and a .45 millimeter in the other" as well as having the words "F*** The World" written across his forehead.

Tupac was convinced not to take his life by his mother, but reportedly the next day planned out a step by step plan for what should happen after his death the next day.

Writing in her book, Staci outlined that Tupac's plans were "like he was directing a movie" as she wrote: "He wanted them to drive to the woods, where he would share one last blunt with Yaki, Mutah, Katari, and Malcolm.

"Then they would leave him there with his shotgun. ‘When it happens,’ Tupac said, ‘don’t let them touch my body. I don’t want them touching my body. Y’all take my body.'"

The new biography comes as there's been advancements in the case against the suspected killer who shot Tupac in September 1996. Duane 'Keffe D' Davis, who has been charged with killing Tupac, appeared shackled in court last week before his arraignment was postponed for a second time.

Last month Davis was arrested in connection with the 1996 drive-by killing, and after a Nevada grand jury indicted him on one count of murder with a deadly weapon, he has been in jail ever since.

Sources have claimed that Davis allegedly bragged about his involvement in the case before his arrest. He reportedly admitted that he was the person who provided the gun that was used during the drive-by shooting but police were never able connect him to the crime. A source told the US Sun: "He felt that the police were never going to take action against him two decades after the killing," and claimed that Davis said: "The police ain't gonna do s**t."

Davis has previously spoken publicly about his involvement with Tupac's murder, but never openly stated that he was the one who pulled the trigger and killed him. Davis has talked about the night in detail in numerous interviews and in his memoir Compton Street Legend that was published in 2019.

In the novel, Davis said he was inside the white Cadillac with the shooter during that night in 1996. The car pulled up next to a BMW driven by Marion "Suge" Knight with Tupac in the passenger seat. After a shootout, Tupac was left with multiple gunshot injuries and succumbed to his injuries a week later.
