(Tupac amaru shakur,Lesanne parish crooks,Makaveli) it didnt matter which alter ego he went under he will always undoubtbly be the greatest rapper ever. this album under Makaveli caused a lot of contriversy when it was released in late 97 after the death of tupac.it opens in the first 3 seconds with a phrase (clear if u know what your looking for!!!) saying "suge shot him" any 2pac fans will know who Suge knight is (owner of death row records,just released after five years in prison) but as soon as the intro starts you know this is goping to be an amazing album. Bomb First creates the tension that was going on in the west coast / east coast rivalry at the time and 2pac starts on Notorious b.i.g,Jay z,Nas and Chino xl.
2pac's lyrics are strangly different as usual compared to all eyez on me and me against the world and he seems to be not himself whilst he is rhyming on this album but it still is great..hail mary seems to have an almost gothic feel to it and toss it up is an up tempo diss at dr dre. to live and die in l.a is a new updated california love and others such as life of an outlaw,krazy,white manz world and me and my girlfriend are tupac as many fanswill know him at his best.
this album is great and if possible get it while you can atlough is is bieng rereleased next week (22-05-01).i think this is 2pacs best album and it is a whole lot better than the constant trash that death row are bringing out now.

Maybe its just me, but I didnt like this album very much, but to me only Me Against The World is outstanding, with All Eyez On Me being decent, and the rest being glorified into the greatest by his death
Advantages: One of the best 2pac albums created, it also makes you think about his death Disadvantages: I do not believe that there is much wrong with this album just brilliant
