NEW YORK (RUSHPRNEWS)10/02/2008– Get Your Green Up Ent./CTE West recording artist Roccett will be featured in an international and US ad campaign for Tupac Shakur’s official clothing line “Makaveli Branded.”
The 22-year-old Roccett, born and raised in the rugged streets of Carson, CA, is honored to represent the ‘Makaveli Branded’ clothing line, that was launched seven years ago by 2Pac’s mother, Afeni Shakur. “Being a part of ‘Makaveli Branded’ and anything to do with Tupac is a great honor. I grew up on Pac’s music. He is still my favorite rapper and inspiration for me as an artist,” said Roccett . “I am honored to be in the ad campaign and to be a ‘Makaveli Branded’ sponsored artist. The ad not only gets US visibility, but also will get visibility and exposure throughout Europe and other territories that distribute the brand,” he added.
A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Tupac Shakur Foundation Scholarship Fund to complete the Tupac Amaru Shakur Center for the Arts in Stone Mountain, GA.
“Since the untimely death of my son, I have been on a spiritual journey to fulfill and complete what he began while he was alive. Because of his love of music, his fans, his culture, and his family, I walk through life with one purpose. Keeping Tupac’s Legacy alive,” said Ms. Shakur. “All I hope is that we never forget what Tupac always knew; Pursue your goals with a passion and never let life slow you down,” she continued.
