The rapper with the "Thug Life" tat was brought back to life at Coachella on Sunday night.

Thanks to good old modern technology, Tupac Shakur was resurrected more than 15 years after his death in the form of a hologram to take the stage and perform the tunes "Come With Me, "Hail Mary" and "Gangsta Party" alongside Snoop Dogg.

Snoop was later joined by the likes of Dr. Dre, Eminem, 50 Cent, Wiz Khalifa and other actual flesh-and-blood artists, making his set at the music fest all the more memorable.

It wasn't just Tupac, though, who was remembered, as images of Nate Dogg appeared on a screen in the background as Snoop performed "Ain't No Fun."

But not surprisingly, it was the appearance of Tupac that continues to have everyone buzzing. In fact, his hologram now even has its own Twitter account, @hologramtupac.

Yep. Good old modern technology.
