“I was waiting for Tupac at Club 662 in Las Vegas after the Mike Tyson fight on September 7, 1996,” Rahimi wrote on the crowdfunding site. He says his film, 7Dayz, will recount the last week of the rapper’s life as he lay dying in a hospital after being mortally wounded in a 1996 Las Vegas drive-by shooting. Rahimi, who directed two of Tupac’s music videos and produced several others for Death Row Records, is trying to raise $500,000 in seed money. Another project is also in the works, this one from Tupac’s former producing partner Gobi Rahimi, who has just launched an Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign for his own long-delayed film about the rapper’s last days. Morgan Creek might have some competition in its long-delayed efforts to bring a Tupac Shakur film to the big screen.
