Tupac’s Hologram at Coachella (photo courtesy | Kevin Winter/Getty Images for Coachella)

You’re not reading the headline wrong it’s true. Thanks to technology, Snoop Dogg & Dr. Dre the 2012 Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival saw the resurrection of Tupac.

A life size Tupac hologram took the stage on day 3 of the Coachella Music Festival where he performed Hail Mary & 2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted with Snoop Dogg. The audience was of course a little stunned and taken aback by this performance not realizing what was happening at first. Tupac’s mother gave Dre permission to use the hologram during his headlining act in exchange for a donation to the Tupac Amaru Shakur Foundation. Now I wonder if this is the beginning of such performances of other artists who have passed away, will we see Michael Jackson back on stage?
