Tupac en Zeven (door al dat 6+1 etc vind ik het behoorlijk vergezocht)
quote:
The death of rapper Tupac Shakur spurred a conspiracy theory known as the Seven Day Theory. This theory makes the claim that the rapper left clues to how he died or, more popularly, clues that he faked his own death and is alive to this day. Posthumously, Shakur has released seven albums, fueling more interest in the possibility that the rapper is still alive. While proponents of the theory insist that it is true, it is more often dismissed as logical fallacy. The numerous references to the number "seven" (hence "Seven Day Theory") have been countered by the fact that his album, The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory was named so for the fact it was produced in a seven day period.
The conspiracy theory, centers on the name that Shakur used on his album (Makaveli). Additionally, mention is made of the number of instances of the number seven in facts surrounding his life. Some examples include:
In song "Heartz of Men" in Book One of All Eyez on Me, 2Pac says "I died and came back,"; time: three minutes and 13 seconds (3+1+3=7).
Shakur died at 4:03 p.m. on September 13, 1996, seven months after All Eyez on Me was released (February 13, 1996. His time of death was 4:03 p.m. and his age was 25 which both equal 7 when added together (4+0+3=7 and 2+5=7, respectively).
Shakur supposedly shoots six times in the first track of "Seven Day Theory", "Intro/Bomb First (My Second Reply)". When the track switches and Shakur starts rapping, a seventh shot rings.
In the music video of "Toss It Up", Shakur shatters a mirror with a bat. A commonly held superstition is that breaking a mirror will bring seven years of bad luck.
Shakur's close friend Yaki Kadafi of Tha Outlawz was murdered on November 10, 1996, eight weeks and five days after Shakur. Kadafi was possibly the only one who witnessed the rapper's death.
In the 1997 film Gridlock'd, Shakur and Tim Roth ask about sandwiches. The cook points to the menu where the "L's" on the menu are replaced with an inverted reversed number seven.
In the 1997 film Gang Related Shakur and Jim Belushi portray corrupt police detectives. In one scene they are found waiting in police room 7. The badge number worn by Shakur was 115 (1+1+5=7).
References to the number seven can also be seen in his music videos and "allegedly" heard in some of his songs. In the video for "I Wonder if Heaven Got a Ghetto", in which Shakur is seen going into room 7 of a hotel at 4:03 (according to a clock in the video). It should be noted however, that the theme for "I Wonder if Heaven Got a Ghetto" was centered around "arriving" after his death. Since September 13, 1996 4:03 p.m. was the reported time of death, it may simply mean this is when Shakur arrived in heaven. Finally at the begining of this video it says "Rukahs in New Mexico", if you switch Rukahs around it comes out "Shakur in New Mexico".
1+1+5=7 etc. Ja, zo kan ik het ook.
