2Pac Album: “Greatest Hits [Clean]”

The Cd starts out with two great songs: Keep Ya Head Up and Two of Amerikaz Most Wanted. Keep Ya Head Up is about the troubles that our women suffer today. A slower sad song. Followed by Tupac and Snoop Dogg kicking a$$ in a song with the best beat and best lyrics. The next few songs aren't the greatest, but good beats and good lyrics. A few point outs for the rest of Disc One: Unconditional Love: A very, very good sad song about hard times and loved ones. Trapped: About livin a thug life. Life Goes On: Helping to understand death and giving dedication to their friend Kato. Hit 'Em Up: A powerful, vulgar rap portraying the hate against Biggie Smallz and Junior M.A.F.I.A. Disc Two: Troublesome is another powerful, fast song about living a hard life in the ghetto. Good Beat. Brenda's Got a Baby is a realistic portrayal of teen pregnecies and how life goes wrong for some. I Ain't Mad at ya is not a great song, but stands it's ground. Changes is one of Tupacs greatest. It's fast beat and poetically written lyrics combine to make a moving song about changing society and treating humans right. California love talks about the hustling scene in Cali. Picture Me Rollin, an upbeat boastful fun song about money, cars, and High Rollin. How Long Will They Mourn Me is a slower dedication by Thug life to Kato. Dear Mama is a song for Tupacs struggled stressed mother that did her best to raise Tupac. It's all About U is about women and sex, fast and fun. To Live and Die in L.A. is a slower song talking about the scene in South Cali. A compilation of 2Pacs best songs.

After 5 years of 2Pac's death, his legacy will always live on forever. While many people debate on whether 2Pac is dead or not, we surely know that 2Pac's music will always live on. 2Pac we forever be one of raps greatest artists and his lyrical skills still are unmatched.

There are so many more hits on here that I haven't mentioned that make 2Pac so special and different from these mainstream rappers today. He will always be one of my favorite rappers. Go pick up this Class Greatest Hits CD now.

I'm not gonna front. I'm just an average white(Portuguese/Italian) kid from an average working/middle class family. So the whole "thug" thing is something I can't really relate to, but with 2pac, it don't really matter. He pulls ya in like a trip'd out car accident on the side of the road, maybe you shouldn't "I spy", but you just can't help it, and you look and stare anyway.

When I dropped this cd, clip'd on the headphones, what dude was say'n, listen up, pop open this cd kid, I've got somethin'for ya . . .

* "GOD BLESS THE DEAD" - I've been guilty of say'n sh** like, "just say no to crime", but when you're a 8 yr. old lil' kid and mom's slam'n down 3 jobs, no daddy, and you got the street whisper'n, "piss'd, hey kid, we's ya'll family now". Guess what, early graduation to thug life.

Sure, he's a hard ass impressario, but thats what makes 2pac so special is because as much as he's a hard mother f*****, he's also sensitive, intuitive, insightful and always bang on the dime.

Like most other "greats", including the Bob Marley's of the world, he delicately pulls off the "cat in the hat" by not try'n to have all the answers, and preach'n all kinds of non-sense about sav'n the world. Just a cool cat, quarterback'n his take on life, what we do with the ball when we catch it, is up to us.

He may have left the stage a wee bit early, but his special gifts, will stay with us forever.

THIS ALBUM IS THE ILLEST! TUPAC WAS AND STILL IS THE GREATEST RAPPER OF ALL TIME, NO ONE WILL EVER COMPARE TO HIM. THIS IS A COMBINATION OF VARIOUS SONGS FROM THE LATE TUPAC SHAKUR. YOU GET A LITTLE OF ALL OF HIS ALBUMS IN ONE GREAT PACKAGE. I THINK THAT THERE SHOULD BE ANOTHER GREATEST HITS FROM TUPAC, A VOLUME 2 OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT,BUT NEVER THE LESS THIS CD IS ILL. ALL TUPAC FANS SHOULD GO GET IT.THESE ARE SOME OF THE ILLEST SONGS EVER RELEASED INCLUDING THE PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED "TROUBLESOME" AND "GOD BLESS THE DEAD". TUPAC DIED FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 13,1995, SIX MONTHS BEFORE THE NOTORIOUS ONE DIED IN MARCH. SO IT IS PRETTY MYSTERIOUS THAT TUPAC WROTE A SONG ABOUT BIG'S DEATH. IN MAKAVELI'S OWN WORDS"WHEN YOU DIE, BE A MAN AND PICK THE WAY YOU LEAVE." I THINK HE PREDICTED HIS DEATH AND ACCEPTED IT. R.I.P. TUPAC SHAKUR.

2Pac is definately the greatest rapper of all time! one part to look out for is on the song "GOD BLESS THE DEAD" 2Pac begins with the words "REST IN PEACE TO MY MOTHERF**KER BIGGIE SMALLS" this is a little strange considering THE NOTORIOUS B.I.G. DIED AFTER 2Pac! well the whole album is great and i have had this album for about 1 year and i have never gotten tired of it! 2Pac FOREVER!
