2Pac- This Ain't Livin OG (mastered version)
« on: September 12, 2010, 10:23:13 PM »
This is one of my fav OGs but it was too quiet, prolly not mastered.  I gave it an attempt so hopefully its better...  In 256kbps mp3 so good quality.

Yes you are right this is a very good song...the rapping is top notch and well done....however this I was wondering for a long time


what exactly is he saying in the first verse after he says "  it's a robbery  ***********Pac will you ride with me"


I really can't make it out....and on the album version this was edited and in the og it seems like it might be edited too........


It would be cool if anyone knows this........thanks

That is a good guess.............


If i had to guess I would say         "It's ya dog nigga pac would ya ride with me"


but what is strange is that the album version is censored.........so that led me to think that he says something controversial on that line
why would shouting out snoop be controversial?????

what's wrong with that?

 well they did censor "dogg father "   out of the second verse.........so maybe in the first verse he is mentioning snoop.......

Definitely Snoop Dogg and "Dogg Father" I'm 99% sure.
"Throw your hands in the air, its a robbery, its Snoop Dogg nigga Pac would you ride with me..." 
and
the second verse is "dogg father."

My guesses, 1) maybe it was ghost written for Snoop originally, 2) It was edited out because when it was released they didn't want any controversy or anything to do with Snoop...

when i first heard 2pac shouting out Snoop dogg on this I thought it was fake..........but now i am coming to realize by listening to other unreleased songs and how snoop is being shout out by 2pac in other songs and plus this one..that 2pac liked snoop dogg alot more than what i was previously thinking...

No, if you listen closely, I added reverb and ran it thru a plugin in Logic called "PSP Warmer."  Not sure if your familiar or not...  it does compresses it amongst other things....

I didn't hear any comments on the quality but let me know how it sounds on your shit.  I haven't blasted it yet but...

If it is good, I was thinking of doing a few more but I need to at least get the WAV files.  Maybe Just Watchin, the one with Kurupt, and ...??
