Greatest Hits

Description

An indispensable and definitive collection showcasing the passionate genius of the late rapper. The album's non-chronological sequence highlights the contradictory impulses that made Tupac's music so commanding; the 21 well-loved "hits", some slightly reedited for legal reasons, are accompanied by four previously unheard songs. Of the new material, the raw-sounding "God Bless the Dead" has been the subject of the most speculation, owing to its subject matter: a eulogizing of the late Notorious B.I.G.--a mysterious feat, since Tupac was killed six months before Biggie. And, making its first proper appearance on a Tupac album, the B-side "Hit 'Em Up" stands as the most intense outburst of pure venomous rage ever captured on tape. Whether he's waxing political, philosophical, or just plain paranoid, Tupac's empathetic, charismatic style remains unmatched. --Charley Gothic Disc: 11.

Heartz Of Men [Explicit] Review: The best Gangsta Rapper ever!! - I have owned this CD a few times before but this time I am keeping hold of it. 2Pac in my opinion is the best rapper ever. The legend has gone down in history and still grabbing headlines today. This CD is the best of his well known tunes from 'Dear Mama's to 'Hit em up'. A CD that gets played from start to finish. Gotta say there is nothing negative about this masterpiece. If you love Pac then you gotta have this CD in you collection. Review: I love this album - I love this album. I have just recently 'discovered' 2Pac after recently getting into rap for the first time. I recommend this album for those who want to know what 2Pac is all about. He was an amazing rapper, and this album showcases all of his hit songs that will introduce you to him. 2Pac was a realist, he would rap about politics and fame, as well as all his troubles in his troubled life. 'Changes', '2 Of Americaz Most Wanted' 'How Do U What it' and 'Keep Ya Head Up' were all of 2Pac's most successful tracks and are all included on this album, as well as his diss song to Biggie, 'Hit Em Up' is on here too. 2Pac was raw, honest and a mature young man rapping incredible rhymes. This album justifies his talents. Go and buy!
