Following her son's death, Davis founded the Tupac Amaru Shakur Foundation, and later helped create Broadway musical Holler If Ya Hear Me in 2014, which featured the rapper's music. She also served as the CEO of Amaru Entertainment, Inc., a record and film production company she founded in Atlanta.

In her youth, Davis – who was born in North Carolina – was an activist and Black Panther.

Earlier this year, she was embroiled in a divorce battle with Gust Davis, her husband of 12 years, TMZ reported. Davis filed legal documents in March asking a North Carolina judge to prevent the minister from receiving alimony from Tupac's estate, which TMZ said generates around $900,000 a year.
