    Pretty s-----y promo for it so far and also sucks it's gonna be on 'new death row' if this is legit. I assume Pac's family is getting royalties from it at least since they got the rights back, hope so at least..

    I would love a new Pac album though even if I already heard the originals, curious to hear how the 'official' or retail versions would turn out.

    *edit* just realized 5/27 is a Monday though and albums come out on Fridays, so I dunno?

    They said there are "2-3 albums worth" of unreleased Pac awhile back right? I wonder what that even really means...like how complete are most of these songs? I'd find it hard to believe they won't be padded with features...and there's probably a reason most have been unreleased for this long.

    So apparently since Pac's family has the rights to his music now, I heard someone say they aren't even sure they can use Pac's name for this album, and it might be an EP lol. So this could end up being a complete joke.

    But yeah there's definitely at least a couple albums worth of material left, some of em are quite good as well. Hopefully Pac's estate decides to release an album done the right way at some point.

    Like you mean they couldn't use the artist name "2Pac?" How's that work?

    Luckily they could just use the artist name "Tupac Shakur" and it'd be equally as recognizable.

    I heard a fan mention they couldn't use the name 2pac, yeah lol and since it wasn't in any of the promos for it, it's possible it's true. I dunno what the deal is with this but I'm leaning towards it being fake at this point, s--- isn't gonna come out on a Monday at the very least..Even if something drops it's probably just a lame cash grab by Suge and his son.

    Hopefully Pac's estate drops a good project at some point. He's got some bangers out there that most haven't heard:





    This one's out on a different album, but d--- Pac kills it:

    That Richie Rich song has always been my favorite Pac feature. He kills those verses.

    I doubt this Pac album's coming but f--- it, i'm just gonna use this thread for Pac s--- anyways when I feel like it lol.

    anyways i was just listening to the ghetto gospel original for the first time in a while, and first lemme say that I actually like the retail version, or at least I did..I'm not sure I still do cuz holy s--- Em f----- up. I knew bout him slowing down the vocals, but why the f--- did he cut the last 2 verses? Pac kills this last verse, and the one before it is quite good as well..Even more puzzling is why he changed Pac's words at the end of the 2nd verse to basically say a similar idea just in a different way..maybe for timing issues with the new beat? but either way f--- him cuz he basically made Pac say words that he didn't say in the verse here and it's just odd that he did that imo...he also took out a line in the first verse for some reason lol.

    anyways here's the original, i'd check it out if you haven't, last 2 verses aren't on the retail version.
