Just like the All Eyez On Me board in this season’s collection, this binding is a tribute to Tupac—One of the most influential artists of all time.
Growing up, my dad was always a huge fan of Tupac’s music and poetry, and what he stood for with civil rights. That left a lasting impression on my entire family that will never be erased. When the opportunity arose to work with Tupac’s estate, there was no hesitation.
In honor of this collaboration, Burton will be making a donation to a place called home. Founded in 1993 with Tupac’s support, A Place Called Home provides a safe, nurturing environment with proven programs in music, arts, education, and wellness for the young people in South Central Los Angeles to help them develop healthy, fulfilling, and purposeful lives.
