Why all the hate for whatz ya phone #?  I've heard people now and then say it shouldn't have been on AEOM.  Always thought it was a good track and still do, like the way he used the Time '777-9311' sample.  That's a hard drum pattern to flow over because it's so unusual, Pac handles it well.  Don't know any other rappers that could have matched a flow to it without sounding corny.


I don't hate it, and you're right not too many people could pull off rapping over that beat. But, imo some of the songs that were cut from aeom are a lot better than it.

Pac only had subliminal disses on AEOM  (other than wispering bad boy killa on "No more pain")

and then in like June of '06 Hit em up drops on the how do u want it single as a b-side and it sells atleast 2 or 3 million copies in the US alone



would it have been better on AEOM or as a bside?

"Holla At Me" was clearly a Biggie diss and one of his best songs ever IMO. But thats interesting, "Hit Em Up" came out in 2006? Lol

But I agree, it should've replaced "Whatz Ya Phone #"



It would have been the perfect song to replace what's ya phone #

True. That's prolly the only song from 'Pac and Johnny 'J' that I don't like..Nu-Mixx version is much better :)

Hell yeah! The Nu-Mixx 2 version is amazing.


Nah musically it really does not fit AEOM.

btw whatz ya phone # is a great track

I think we can all agree that Play Your Cards Right (OG) should have been on All Eyes On Me.

Despite the fact that we only have a decent quality remaster of PYCR, its actually one of my favorite SONGS (not rap songs, not 2pac songs) of all time.

i think Lil Homies, Still I Rise, Changed Man, Don't Go To Sleep, When I Get Free remake and LAte Night were also songs that PAc shouldn't have cut :(


AEOM really could have been a 3 disc CD

This guy aint no crip, and I'm 100% sure on that because he doesn't type like a crip, I know crips, and that fool is not a crip.

This is about 2pac and not Crooked I wtf.

Anyways I can't believe the hate Whatz Ya Phone Number gets. It's a great song and I wouldn't take it off the album for anything.

Naw it was a perfect move putting it out on the single. Plus the mixing of "hit em up" was horrible. I can't listen to that track with head phones because you can hear them gasping for air on the mic. AOEM was perfect the way it was since it's release there hasn't been a album like it.

Because Pac didn't fuck Faith until after AEOM came out.
