How did Tupac meet Keisha?

Keisha met the late Tupac Shakur in 1974 when she was a 20-year-old college student. At the time, Tupac was going through his sexual assault case at the time. The first meeting was a brief encounter at the Capitoline New York club, at the time known as Chippendale's club. They two danced and spoke briefly.

About a month later, the two met again at another club known as the Tunnel. The world-famous rapper wanted to take her out, but Keisha was initially skeptical. Still, she agreed to his request, and the two quickly fell in love.
