What is actually going on with or will One Nation album (Buckshot's album with Tupac) ever see the light of day?

I love everybody who mentions that album because it means people were listening and acknowledging and everything like that. To speak honestly, with Tupac leaving us it created a lot of holds. Death Row didn't see us as a platinum group that should have deserved enough priority to continue this album. I think it's unfair. I think it's fucked up that people like Dre and people like 50 Cent and Eminem are rapping over the same vocals that Pac and I did. So obviously they found an outlet for their album, but they put people like 50 Cent on it and they put people like Eminem on them and knocked us out the box. They found the songs and said "Hey, who are these guys? They're not platinum, fuck 'em, take 'em off." So for the people that want to know what happened to the One Nation album - that album was destroyed because we weren't seen as platinum or double platinum artists that would have made them go and re-do that album. If Pac was here, he'd have put a bullet in everybody who did that.

Do you have access to master copies of the album?

I got copies, but when Pac, rest in peace, came to me and gave me that album. He gave it to me himself. He gave me the cassette himself. Pac obviously didn't think that he was gonna die, so he gave me that album and it was rough, it was raw. There was no mixes... our vocals were all over the place. Whenever you hear the rough copy of the Tupac/Bootcamp stuff, that is the only copy. Our vocals were removed and replaced with artists like 50 Cent. Our album was taken apart by Interscope because they didn't feel like we were platinum acts.

But you do have the originals?

Yeah I do, I have the tracks with my vocals and his vocals. When I play those versions, you hear myself and Pac and nobody else. I don't think that was called what Jimmy Iovine or whoever else it was that did that, that's how it goes - you know. What I do is before I start my show, I usually play a song or verse off that album. Every show that I do, I honour Tupac and I play some Tupac stuff and I honour and I say this is off the One Nation album... blah, blah, blah.

But unfortunately there's nowhere for these people to buy it. Therefore they don't know. There's nowhere to buy the album, so it's kind of hectic promoting something that you know people can't buy. But, for the most part it's just personal. It's good that they can hear it.

I feel everything that he said.  Pac would of never let it go down like this.  Pac got down with whoever he was cool with and it didn't matter to him who was platinum.  I've always disagreed with anybody appearing on these Pac records that 2pac wasn't cool with when he was alive. 

However, I would rather have those remixed albums then to have nothing.  Because everyone of them I love.

Hittman is not a real person. He was a computer program generated by Dr. Dre and Mel Man back in the mid 90's. When Dre started treating Mel-Man like shit, Mel infiltrated the computer and put a virus in the hittman program

I've always been interested to hear this. I think that a few songs have been leaked, I'm sure I've heard one or 2 before.

Most hip-hop is now keyboard driven, because the majority of hip-hop workstations have loops and patches that enable somebody with marginal skills to put tracks together,...

Unfortunately, most hip-hop artists gravitated towards the path of least resistance by relying on these pre-set patches. As a result, electric guitar and real musicians became devalued, and a lot of hip-hop now sounds the same.

they may not sell the most albums or anything, but ive always felt that if anyone should handle the unreleased 2pac it should be the outlawz.
