Wikipedia has Pac's birthname as "Lesane Parish Crooks" wtf?
« on: October 30, 2010, 12:19:23 PM »
I've edited a lot of rappers pages, like I did work on some of Kurupts album pages and a few other rappers I can't think of off the top of my head.  But it won't let me edit this one, anyone know the deal with this name being on there?

Guess it might be legit...

Although unconfirmed by the Shakur family, several sources (including the official coroner's report) list his birth name as "Lesane Parish Crooks".[13] This name was supposedly entered on the birth certificate because Afeni feared her enemies would attack her son, and disguised his true identity using a different last name. She changed it later, following her separation from Garland and marriage to Mutulu Shakur.[14]

Are you serious? It's not April 1st is it?
How can you claim to be such a Tupac supporter and not know of his real birthname?  :eh: :grumpy:

It was actually confirmed that his real name was in fact Parish Lesane Crooks, due to Kastro's family background. Although his family refuse to really comment on it.

Yeah I thought I was a fan too until this question came up during some bar trivia, needless to say I was shocked and embarrassed.
