Tupac's mother guarded his music and financial legacy in life, and TMZ has learned Afeni Shakur took extraordinary steps to do the same in death.
Afeni had set up a trust to control all of Tupac's music rights, and a rep for his estate tells us the paperwork is flawless. She also named the perfect executor, Tom Whalley -- former head of Warner Bros. Records -- to handle Tupac's valuable catalog.
We're told the trust is very specific about heirs, and the money is going to select charities and family. Afeni is survived by her sister, Gloria, and a daughter, Sekyiwa Shakur ... Tupac's half sister.
Her estranged husband, Gust Davis, is not mentioned in the trust -- so Tupac's money and music will be virtually untouchable in that divorce.
Interestingly, Tupac's mother was repped by attorney Howard King, who also worked with Prince years ago. He says Prince hated dealing with paperwork and rarely listened to advisors, but Afeni was the exact opposite -- which is why there shouldn't be any legal battles over Tupac's fortune.

That's not possible -
But then again she also let them make Loyal To The Game though. All the other posthumous albums were straight though.

No way it was worse than Loyal To The Game. Pac's Life actually sounded professionally done and not like it was produced and spliced together in someone's garage like Loyal To The Game. -

The last 4 songs on loyal to the game puts it over pacs life. Other than soon as I get home there's no songs on pacs life messing with those -
