Makaveli Album

[MIAMI4LIFE]

I was listening to this album nonstop today this has to be one of top 10 hiphop albums of all time, Pac was spitting some real shit here, Krazy is my joint props to Bad Azz for that verse dude is mad underrated as a lyricist, what about the producers on this album where they some in house cats, xcept for QDIII I never heard of any of these other dudes?

[Episcop Cruel Cvrle]

greatest rap album for me right there.

[Ridah662]

DEEPEST AND BASICALLY BEST RAP ALBUM EVER RECORDED, IT COVERS ALL BASIS IN LIFE..........

[GangstaBoogy]

By far 2Pac's best work. "Blasphemy" and "Hold Ya Head" are my favorites.

[MIAMI4LIFE]

to think he did the album in 7 days I think within 3 days he had all the lyrics down and took an additional 4 days to complete it has to be ranked there with the great achievements in music, dude was in a zone

[jeromechickenbone]

The producers on here were almost all in house.  Pac was in a CRAZY zone once he got released from prison.  Literally recording hundreds of songs. 

Basically, anybody that was actually there and ready to go got on this album.  I remember reading about "Krazy" that Pac wanted all the Outlawz on there, but they were having trouble coming up with rhymes.  It just so had it that Bad Azz was in there, and wrote some shit on the spot so Pac put him on there.  And boom, song done, onto the next.

As far as producers, it was largely the same.  Most of the dudes that popped up on here were very low on the Death Row producer food chain.  They used to call these studio's "the wack room".  Nobody was really fuckin with these guys.  But again, they had some beats ready, where as guys like Daz and whoever else were kinda fuckin around.  So Pac grabbed them, told them to drop their shit and he rapped on it.  Like I said, Pac was on another level at that time.  He was so driven and inspired, that he could make the wackest beat sound incredibly dope because of the way he attacked them.  And look around, a lot of the dudes that produced on that album were never heard from again, which is a testament to his genius at the time.

shit is crazy, this was raps real "Black Album"

[MontrealCity's Most]

Yeah it was a cool album but i little too dark for me, too downbeat.

[Just Another Sunny day in California]

"Hail Mary" and "Against All Odds" are my favorite tracks......Hail Mary from beginning to end is a muthafuckin classic song, every aspect of that song is amazing.  Against all odds is like how pac said "the realest shit he's ever wrote."

[Antonio_]

greatest rap album for me right there.

[J$crILLa]

fuckin classic

[⠀]

An album for all seasons.

Listening to this album does make it seem that Pac was supposed to die that night though - How could he have topped this?

[The "Untouchable" DJR]

One of the greatest rap records of all time.

[Scream @ Me]

Love this album.
