Not sure how legit this is, but maybe it was some early draft. Thank god they didn't use this, because I think the whole look and feel of the album is larger than than life and eternal—and this would have brought it back down to a more lowly human form. Also the imagery about Dre would have pissed me off. I know Pac wanted to show loyalty to Suge by dissing Dre—but like Dre says in the Source Cover article 96' he ain't do nothing but help people at Death Row. And "California Love" was his song, he did not have to give that song up to Pac. That song ended up being Pac's biggest record of all time. The only song Pac has that was possibly more popular than "California Love" was "Dear Mama".
u not sure how legit it is? i’m insulted u would insinuate that i’d post up a fakeif u that 1996 you should know this is the original draft that they were guna release dissin puff, big and dre ....... if u know the story of makaveli, it was originally slated to be a mixtape and that’s how the back was going to look before pac passed and they turned it into a studio album. not sure if you caught it, but pac disses dre on the album .. “california love part 2 without gay ass dre” is said on the biggest hit off it.
The picture is real, Suge had it in his office and it's said it was due to be on the cover. But read the bottom, this is just a mock-up Draven made from 2Pac-Forum by putting the design on a cover.
^^ thanks for the article. The drawer says "the original artwork had images I did of Biggie as a pig and Puffy as a ballerina". Yeah, we actually noticed that. However, isn't that Dr .Dre being sodomized by some blonde man? How can you not mention that?
