All Eyez On Me

(1/6) > >>

ImmortalOne:

All Eyez On Me, quite simply, is a hip hop gem. I cant say this is Pacs absolute best album, but it is his most diverse one. I think he pretty much spoke on every subject on this album, and the album is beautifully consistant for a double cd. The album is based on the people he interacted with and/or dealt with in his life, whether it be fake bitchez, the police, friends, enemys, or HIMSELF. Truly a magnifcent concept album.

Ambtionz As A Ridah is his struggle to arise on top of those who have tried to lower him, and is over a brilliant Daz beat. The album has alot of great party tracks like All About U, Thug Passion, Check Out Time, etc....but its the meaningful songs where Pac shines his best. Life Goes On is a tribute to a dead homie and is one of the most beatifully constructed songs ive heard. Only God Can Judge Me is a political song, and a strong point of the album. A huge hit was 2 Of Amerikaz Most Wanted f/Snoop. Despite the huge radio airplay it recieved, this song actually has a message of the disadvantages of being a celebrity/star. Cant C Me is a great thugged out song, a great song to get pumped up to, and Whonda Why The Call U Bitch is a story-telling track about a prosititute which is almost too real to explain. Overall, this album has it all. There were a couple of slips, such as Whatz Ya Phone # [this song flat out SUCKED] and Picture Me Rollin [totally opposite of what Pacs music is supposed to stand for]. Also, I like the original California Love better than the remix. Other than that, this is a classic album, easily.......5/5. Disc 1 is a little stronger than Disc 2 though:

AlerG:
good review, although i thought that "picture me rollin'" was a very tight song and it fit right in with the rest of the tracks. i do agree with the call on "what's ya phone #" cause that song just flat out sucks, i give the cd 5/5. it was a classic imo, and i thought it was 2Pac's best cd that'll ever be released, peace.
