He has some really interesting things to say about a lot of subjects, this dude was truly an insider, especially when it comes to the music.  A lot of new information I never new about.  The way he talks about the 7 Day Theory album can give you chills.  There are better clips then the one I linked to above, he's basically advertising for his new book.

Some of the gems he dropped that I never knew... for example, Suge actually green-lighted a diss album.  So the "Machiavelli album" actually started out as a diss album, but after a song like "Friends" Tommy D told Pac it was kind of wack and getting old just dissing people for a whole album, and then after recording one of the 7 Day Theory tracks, Tommy D told him it reminded him of some of the political stuff he had done with Gil Scott Heron.  At that point Pac actually flipped the script and ended up going dark, conscious and political for the 7 Day Theory.  It's really an interesting story to hear him tell it, and it can actually give you chills.  When he's talking about the genius of pac and how a song like "Blasphemy" was like larger than life and more than a song, like that Tommy D didn't even know what to call that kind of music.  

Fascinating stuff.  

On a lighter note he also has interesting info about Dre wanting to leave Death Row, like for example stuff like Pac wanting to go to a club to beat up Craig Mack kind of indicated the downfall of the Row as they started turning to more violence.

great replies so far guys.  Makes me wonder if your purpose for coming to the forum is that you love music or that you have no life and no friends and just want to fuck around.

Sounds good...

I never really dug the 7 Day Theory album that much though, I'd prefer more info
on his earlier albums or All Eyez On Me...
