stop destroying Pac's legacy... i think that's what you meant to say

doesn't look so bad to me.... with "Pac's Kids", Outlawz, Shock G, Boot Camp Click (fine to finally see Amaru putting them on something Pac related)...  i most def think this will be enjoyable...

Well, I have a lot less problem with this kinda project, where there is respect being paid to Pac, than I do with the constant raping of his legacy by releasing all this old shit that Pac probably would never have released on his own.

They are called unreleased tracks for a reason PEOPLE!

Same thing that Puffy did with Biggie.  He was gonna release more, but he started catching shit from people about abusing the Biggie name to build himself up, so he dropped plans for another album after "Born Again" was released.

With Pac, they're just scraping the barrell for songs to release to make money.  If anyone thinks Suge gives a damn about Pac, they wrong.  Suge cares about Suge.

I agree that we need to just stop buying these bogus Tupac Albums, and that's what they are.  I feel that if it wasn't released by Pac (or in the case of Biggie, was gonna be released when he died), then it's bogus, and I refuse to contribute.

Besides...Suge gets money off of every Pac album, due to some deal he did with Afeni, and zero dollars of mine is going into his pocket.

they need to just leave his shit alone, and stop having Eminem produce tracks and have "feat. Elton John"

makes me sick

maybe I was a bit harsh in labeling them bogus, I just feel that if Pac didn't release it, then it's not "official".  Suge can release every damn pac track he can find, and it still won't change anything.  It's cheapening his legacy when you keep putting stuff out like that.

The great things about Jimi Hendrix, and The Doors, and other artists who are gone is that you can listen to their stuff and go, "damn, if only this guy had lived longer, can you imagine what he coulda done?"  Not to sit around and listen to old stuff they did.  

IT just smacks of making money off the dead, and I'm not really for that.  But they have the right to release them, and I know Pac fans that love to buy anything that Pac did, but as for his music and stuff, just let it go.  The man is gone, let's celebrate what he did when he was around, not chopped up and blended tracks that he didn't feel were up to his best.

actually...some of his best songs were released after his death.

and he didn't release them because he didn't think they were his best...because if you listen 2 some of his interviews he said that he wanted 2 record a bunch of songs then if there came a time that he couldn't make more music he could have a bunch of unreleased shit he could send out.

cool...I remember when Dre was talking on MTV when he dropped Chronic (the first one) he was like, 'we did about 30 tracks, and only 15 or so made it'...I just figured those go in the vault, and then they make another record, and another fifteen or 20 go in the vault...

[Wicked977]

Dre has so many Track In His "Vault" including Rakims Aftermath Release 

[WestCoasta]

why would anybody wanna keep a track in a "vault" especially if it's a banger? 

if I was a producer and I made a really tight track that would never see the light of day, what the hell did I make it so dope for?

I don't understand that shit

[conscious thug]

I guess you make every track as dope as you can, and then whittle it down to the top 15 or so...just the way shit works out sometimes, I guess.
