No, it wasn't dope.

That Elton John joint and the bonus tracks stood out IMO

I liked the Raphael Saadiq remix of "Crooked Nigga Too".  That was a bomb remix.  Black Cotton was good too.  The only thing I didn't like about the album was the way Eminem slowed down 2pac's vocals in a bunch of songs.  It's one thing to remix the music behind 2pac's original vocals, but when you start changing and altering the vocals themselves, that's beginning to cross the line.  He did do it all for free to Afeni though, and chances are, several of these songs probably would have never been released, so it's cool i guess.  Another thing I found annoying was that Eminem didn't use all of 2pac's verses in the songs.  Like Ghetto Gospel was only 2 verses, and the OG had 4 verses, and Thug 4 Life only had 2 verses, when the OG had 3.  I mean, why just waste 2pac verses like that?

He didn't put any other artists in either of those songs...he just shortened them up and added longer instrumentals.

It's a horrible song - one of the worst off this fuckin crap ass album! I only liked 'Uppercut' and 'Out On Bail' from Em's production - Bonus tracks were the best!

The problem with the album was that it was produced entirely by Eminem and I don't think his production was diverse enough at that time to hold it down for a whole album. There really aren't any particular songs that I can point at and say that are terrible if played individually but as a whole, an album full of Eminem-produced songs with himself, G-Unit, and Obie just doesn't work. It's not really whether or not Pac would have worked with whatever artists or not, I just think if you let any artist with his own label oversee a project like this, you're gonna see him put his people on as guests and it always felt like "Hey! Look I'm on a Pac album!". Even when Death Row did it towards the end, it kind of felt off. I think Em's production worked well on the movie soundtrack where you got like 3 songs mixed in with some other stuff but a whole album of it was a lot to put on him. I can't blame the guy. There are a few people who would have turned down the chance to produce an entire Pac album if given the chance. I will say this. As much as I found the end product so-so, it ranked higher with me than the Pac album they put out after it.
