Tupac Shakur's fiancée Kidada Jones has shared the last thing she ever said to the rapper before he was murdered.

The rap world was left reeling on 13 September 1996 when Tupac was gunned down in Las Vegas, moments after watching a Mike Tyson boxing match at the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas.

Shakur was shot four times - in the right leg, arm and twice in the chest - in his car. The rapper was taken to hospital but later died from his injuries at just 25-years-old.

In honour of what would've been the rapper's 53rd birthday this Sunday (16 June) we're looking back on here is the last words his fiancée Kidada said to him before he succumbed to his injuries six days later.

Kidada - daughter of legendary musician Quincy Jones and actress Peggy Lipton, as well as the sister of Parks & Recreation star Rashida Jones - had begun a relationship with the 'California Love' rapper had been dating for four months before his death, after meeting in a club.

The union had been an unlikely one, after Tupac had previously criticised the Jones' parents interracial relationship in a 1993 interview.

Tupac later apologised to Kidada for his comments before the pair struck up a relationship.

Reflecting on the Tupac's death, the former model wrote a first-person account in her father's 2001 autobiography in which she called the rapper the 'love of her life'.

“Tupac was the love of my life,” she wrote. “He and I lived together for four months and then he was murdered in Las Vegas in 1996.

"It was the most horrible thing that ever happened to me.”

Kidada and Tupac had been in Las Vegas together on the night of the rapper's death, she was in the couple's hotel room at the time of the shooting.

Upon arriving at the hospital she was handed his blood-stained clothes at the hospital and told her fiancé had lost all blood pressure on arrival.

“Do you know I love you?” she told him, as he lay in the hospital bed. “Do you know we all love you?”

Tupac nodded, convulsed, and fell into a final coma.

Kidada went on to add that she wished they'd never gone to Las Vegas as she'd had a 'horrible' feeling about it.

“I knew we should’ve never gone to Vegas that night. I had a horrible feeling about it," she wrote, adding: "I’ve gone over it in my mind a million times. It wasn’t supposed to happen. We weren’t supposed to be there.

"It was the worst possible thing that could’ve happened - I still to this day don’t know who shot him."
