You don't have to like "All Eyez On Me", but you have to be stupid to say it's the worst album Tha Row ever released.

why...because its the deepest album of all time, because it has the best production, because its pacs best work? YEAH OR NOT! dude...its easily the worst pac cd ever made...90% of the tracks were made specifically for the radio...the album was bullshit...i enjoyed it...but it was bullshit.

all eyes on me

surprisingly you arent the only one to feel that way...while i may not think its necessarily the worst...its probably the 2nd or 3rd biggest bullshit album (imo) ever released on deathrow...sadly people praise it like its the epitamy of hip hop

Agreed with that. Everyone praises it like mad but its one weak-ass album.

Most hip-hop is now keyboard driven, because the majority of hip-hop workstations have loops and patches that enable somebody with marginal skills to put tracks together,...

Unfortunately, most hip-hop artists gravitated towards the path of least resistance by relying on these pre-set patches. As a result, electric guitar and real musicians became devalued, and a lot of hip-hop now sounds the same.

I say Nu mixx classics.

You guys are killing me with this crap about all eyez on me.  There are a lot of classic tracks on that album, and I have and still bump the shit out of it.  Great beats, great raps, great guests.  How can you even say its a bad album.

I disagree. The only songs which I would call classic on that album are Can't C Me, Ain't Hard 2 Find & Got My Mind Made Up. There's a few other songs I don't mind.

I have to add into that list Ambitionz Az A Ridah, Picture Me Rollin' & Life Goes On...other than that its all just shit made for bumpin...nothing on that cd other than those had any value to it other than being radio-friendly tracks.

I don't know what y'all are talkin' about with that "made for radio" shit. Just cuz there was a grip of singles from this album doesn't necessarily mean they were specifically made for the radio. It could mean that the album was so damn good that it had a lot of great tracs that people wanted to hear again and again. And besides, any artist that's a smart businessman will make they album for the radio, because unfortunately that's he only real way to blow up/sell out.

2Pac was not a sell out.  His music was from the heart and soul and you could tell.   He was just able to make platinum hits that hella peeps like.  Hella deathrow songs used to be played on the radio/tv back in the day.  Doggystyle has hella radio/tv friendly songs but that was not a sell out album.  Nothing but a G-Thang is a huge radio/friendly hit and is a excellent classic song.  Back in the days (the 90's)  westcoast rap was the most popular rap, so hella songs could be on the radio.  Nowadays though westcoast rap is not very popular at all.  The music on the radio nowadays is really shitty 95% of the time.  So I would agree that if now a artist from the westcoast  had an album with 6-8 huge radio hits I am pretty sure I wouldn't like it much.  And the only one who could make an album like that nowadays that I think I would really like is Dre with detox.

doggystyle is from a different era in hip hop than all eyes on me was...while its only a 3 year diff. the styles changed...pac is not a sellout but you know if he had his way all eyes on me would'ntve sounded the way it did...that was a stunt that deathrow wanted him to do to sell more records...it happens all the time...just like the new song by TQ "KeepItOnTheLow"...not his style and he said flat out that cash money wanted him to do that song and he doesnt like that song. pac was deeper than all eyes on me...he had so much more talent than that album.

I can't believe what I'm reading about All Eyez On Me... that album is fucking great!

And I think Nu Mixx Klazzics is the worst Death Row album (that I heard). Btw, how can somebody call Christmas On Death Row a bad album??

That's what I was thinking. Looking forward to bumping that in the coming months. The Nate Dogg and Dogg Pound tracks are  :o, and then there's my personal favourite, 'Glorious Day'. Great album.
