good shit. i wish they would have just left the songs as they were anyway.
Stop bitching, please!! The thing you have to keep in mind is that Afeni doesn't make money off Pac. All she gets she uses for the museum she's building to remember Pac. And all those artists basically are doing those remixes for free, without getting paid, just to commemorate Pac. You can't ask Afeni to spend millions to release all the vault in the OG form, cause there are too many samples, too many rappers who wants to get paid, too many problems with Suge Knight and the Death Row Records, too many uncomplete tracks that arrived to us just recorded from the NAT (like They Don't Give A Fuck About Us or Soon As I Get Home) and that can't be mixed. If you like the album buy it, support Pac and Pac's legacy and one day you'll be able to go to his museum and enjoy it. If you don't like it just download it or ignore it. But i'm tired of people always bitching about Afeni and her job. She doesn't get paid, so what's the fucking problem? She wants all the money to be saved for her projects. She's the mother. She can do whatever she wants to remember her son and to give him something to remember him forever. At the end of the day, and this is the proof, we already have the OG's, so what the fuck are you bitching about?? Download this compilation if you want the OG's.
I'll leave the link up until the weekend ...
Props! I too would love it if someone could hookup the other albums in OG form.

thats all good and well, but please don't mistake what I am saying for the usual "release them in OG format" argument. My point goes far deeper than that. I don't produce music, however I guarantee I could come up with better beats than those that have been used. Some tracks sound like damn polophonic ringtones! And there is NO EXCUSE for changing Tupac's words in his music - how can anyone say "support Tupac and his legacy" when they change what he said??? They make him say things he never said through the magic of editing and they cut out things he did actually day!
Afeni Shakur can save all the money she wants from these projects, thats cool, but that old saying "spend money to make money" actually applies in real life. Make an album worth hearing and I'll buy it. This is the first album of his I will not buy on priciple - I'm sick of it. As a minimum get someone to do a little quality control on the beats and ensure that your sons legacy is not changed by litrerally putting words in his mouth.
