didn't live to laugh about it. Perhaps he now knows the answer to his question, "I Wonder If Heaven Got a Ghetto," which shows up here twice. Shakur, like most hard rappers, liked to sound tough, kicking it with song titles unprintable in a family newspaper. But, underneath the braggadocio, there was fear. "Only Fear of Death," "Nothing to Lose," and "I'm Losin' It" tell a far different story than "Fake Ass Bitches." His artistry could never, however, catch up to the sad fate of his life.--Rob O'Connor

R U Still Down? Review ofR U Still Down (Remember Me) [PA] - 2Pacby
limpzy
Advantages: Collection of two hit singles, multi-platinum album & contained unreleased material. Disadvantages: Nothing different compared to his old albums. First album to be finished without the creative input of Tupac himself.
