Netflix unveiled the trailer on Wednesday, November 11, for The Tupac Tapes with Angie Martinez, a four-part podcast series premiering November 27.
The series will make Martinez’s full interview with the late rapper, recorded 30 years ago, available to the public for the first time.
The interview took place in Los Angeles three months before Shakur was killed in September 1996. Martinez was then a radio personality at New York’s Hot 97.
Podcasters Joe Budden, Charlamagne Tha God, Big Boy and Wallo, journalist-filmmaker Dream Hampton, and hip-hop producer RZA will join the series to reflect on Shakur’s legacy and impact.
Martinez said she held on to the tapes because parts of the conversation could have hurt people and intensified an already dangerous situation. She had aired only the portions she felt conveyed Shakur’s message that he was not at war with an entire coast.
Martinez hopes the series will leave viewers with greater empathy for both Tupac Shakur and The Notorious B.I.G.
