Análisis (en inglés) - AMG :
More than three years after his death, it's difficult to believe there's still unreleased 2Pac material out there, much less quality material. After no less than three posthumous albums built around what 2Pac produced when he was still alive (plus an assortment of bootlegs making the rounds), the well apparently still hasn't run dry, and Still I Rise is the inevitable result. As on the Notorious B.I.G. album released just weeks before, though, there are some pretty wide gaps on Still I Rise between rhymes actually delivered by 2Pac. There's also an undeniable -- some would say obvious -- impression that this album just doesn't bear the mark of 2Pac himself. Making up the difference in both categories is Outlawz, a quartet of rappers comprised of E.D.I., Kastro, Napoleon, and Young Noble. Together, they're more than competent at keeping the flow going between 2Pac fragments, and except for the fact that the headliner isn't an incredibly strong presence here, a neophyte would have no idea that these rhymes weren't recorded at the same time. As with 2Pac's other posthumous releases -- Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory and Stop the Gun Fight -- Still I Rise comes with four or five solid tracks that may have survived the cuts on a real 2Pac album. The title track and "Letter to the President" are obvious winners, still reliant on the syrupy G-funk that 2Pac made famous, and (thankfully) not influenced by the increasing late-'90s insurgence of muzaky hip-hop productions. And "Baby Don't Cry (Keep Ya Head Up II)" -- 2Pac's self-produced follow-up to "Keep Ya Head Up" (from 1993's Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z.) -- is a surprisingly touching message track, on the level of "Dear Mama" and "No More Pain." For any of 2Pac's fans, it'll be so good to hear his voice again on new material that the cash-in nature of Still I Rise can easily be overlooked. It's just not the album 2Pac would have produced had he still been alive. [Still I Rise is also available in a clean version.] ~ John Bush, All Music GuideAnálisis (en inglés) - :
