50 Cent Wants 2Pac Under G-Unit!
Word is 50 says he'd like to executive produce 2Pac's new album and make sure 2Pac is promoted correctly. 50 also says he's concerned about the direction of 2Pac's material from his last effort. "I mean look at his last album. You can say there was no single and if it was it wasn't released in time and not only that, but it was probably released quietly, where absolutely no one heard about it. How do they expect to make money by doing that if the marketing isn't on point," asked 50.
According to 50, he feels 2Pac is deserving of better production and promotion then on some of his recent efforts and feels the only way that can happen is if he can be the overseer of his music projects. "2Pac has so many potential hits and he deserves better than what he's getting. I mean his posthumous albums are okay decent albums, but they can be better if you ask me. I'm a pac fan and I still listen to 2pac until this day. In fact I can listen to 3 2Pac albums straight without skipping a track."
2Pac who's untitled new album, which is stated to be his last released posthumous album is scheduled to be released in the Fall of this year, which marks his 10th year anniversary of his passing and is anticipated to be the best posthumous album to date. But the G-Unit general is not so sure that they can do an exceeding job that he is so promising to put forth if it was released under his direction and denies it will be his last. It's like every pac album that comes out with is his last. "That's just a promotional tactic that the people in charge of his music use for people to pick up his albums and they shouldn't have to go through all that because we all know pac was a workaholic and that there is no way that the last of his material are anywhere near. 50 Cent also said passionately and annoyed, "I feel the people running his material are not necessarily heading his work in the proper direction". 2Pac had an album come out some years ago and they only put out one single out of about an album filled with 30 songs and that single had Nas on it. To me that was the worst thing they could've done. Like why would they put Nas on a pac single and then worse make a video for it also as the lead single. It seems like the people in charge don't even listen to his music. That right there was a turn off to plenty of people. They missed the ball on making more huge hits, gaining more profit, and having his overall legacy be more than what it is. The album had so many potential singles such as "Who Do You Believe In", which relates to me and is probably one of my favorite joints ever. His mother has a center dedicated to him where supposedly all the album proceeds are put into that center, but with the way 2pac is promoted it's like there not really trying to make money. A 2pac album should be going at least 6x platinum a record, but since he has a weak marketing team and people who sit back and choose wrong choices of singles, the center is not making as much proceeds from his album as he should be because his albums aren't doing his real potential numbers."
"If this joint deal was to happen with Amaru/G-Unit I guarantee that 2Pac will have the greatest album to date ever," says Curtis "Interscope" Jackson boldly. "We're trying to be in talks with Amaru now and his estate and hopefully a conclusion of a joint venture can happen and we can make it happen for pac again. Me and Pac rocked the house on tha realists joint and we can do it again if the opportunity is given, where pac and I can team up again and have him linked to G-Unit. I don't see why his mother wouldn't want a joint venture with me. Mark my words, I guarantee an authentic 2pac album. I'll make a better album than All Eyez On Me and Makaveli and this is a guarantee. If Pac is with me on G-Unit I guarantee diamond status on every album because I would put out some of the best music of his life. All his mom needs is a promoter like me to do all the work and she can kick back."
No word yet on Afeni or any representatives from Amaru.

FUCK 50 CENT :-X

LOL, so he's saying Eminem fucked up the last album? Not that I disagree with that statement ("Loyal To The Game" was pretty bad), but damn, you gotta be a dumb muthafucka to criticize one of the people who made you famous like that.

2 words: Blood Money. :P

Then this topic is pointless. Why are people still so obsessed with 50 speaking out of his ass?
-
FUCK 50 CENT :-X
So articulate.
-
50 will prolly put forth more money into the marketing aspect but will just ruin the tracks with his sadass featured on them.
-
Till theres no source not gonna comment on this.

You just did. :o

BLASPHEMY!!!
I never liked any of his posthumous albumz to begin with for tha simple fact that I find it inappropriate to mess around with a deceased person'z music, I ONLY listen to his OG material (same for Biggie) but if 50'z gettin' involved with this album that would be really really bad...
They should have released his music just tha way it was... Amaru, Death Row, Interscope or whoever...
-
he can prolly do a much better job than his mom etc since he a exec and a fan.
I dont know though he maybe just want the Pac money or tryna get respect by fuckin wid Pac.
-
if this is true:
did this bitch just say he would make a better album than "All Eyez on Me" and "Makaveli" and guaranteed it?? LMAO!!
-
someone was bored, the sentence structure is horrible lol.
-
This has gotta be fake, no way would he call em's production on loyal to the game... if its real, god help lol
-

Yeah this may be a fake. Can we get a source?
-

i think he means 2Pac-Makaveli_The_Don-The_Way_He_Wanted_It
-
new 2Pac cd's are lame
-
This seems suspect, yes 2 pac needs better promotion but not from 50.
-
I'd pick 50 over Eminem any day in regards to Pac. That Eminem album was a fucking disgrace!
-
Eminem ruined the last pac album
i dont want 50 takin pac to the candy shop on the next one just to sell the shit
let snoop handle the music on this one....
-
Fake!
-
Not a big fan of tupac albums they come out wiht since he died wasent R U still down came out shortly after his death? I liked that one it was dope but after that still I rise and other ( i dont even know as i stopped listing to them) had bad beats that dint suit pac i find and 2 many guest apperences
-

That was 7 Day Theory. "R U Still Down?" came out about a year after his death.
-
ok thanks i always wondered also.The beats were different as well but very good did he record it while still alive or they just mixed new beats to old lyrics they had of his like they do now.
-

Which one? "7 Day Thoery" was completed by 2Pac himself before he died. "R U Still Down?" was all unreleased songs recorded by 2Pac before his death, if I'm not mistaken.
-
Yeah thats what im asking about R U STill down did he complete it before he died or they just did beats and match his voice over it like his enw albums
-
afeni better not fuck up again
50 cent shud never get n e where close to pac material
-
Wasn't 50 and GUnit on Loyal 2 The Game?
I want to see Daz, Dj Quik, and Johnny J head up the next album. But one can only wish. Next album will probably have Kanye and Lil' Jon all over it.
-

R U STill down was what me agaisnt the world was going to be until pac redid that whole album. Alot of the beats are the same as the OG ones. I have all OGs thats have leaked and i must say some songs be glad they got a new beat but alot of songs its like why would u redo that but in a way they have to because amaru dont want to pay for the samples in pacs beats. hope that helps u
-
Yeah that album was realy tight probably my second favorite behind all eyez on me, altho me against the world is very deep lyriclly i find its a very dark album and i dont like listing to it that much its realy great work tho.
Totaly off topic but whats up with the karma next to my name lol
-

Are you asking what it is? When you reach a certain # of posts you can raise some ones karma level (prop them) or lower it (diss them). Aside from that it doesn't really mean anything.
-
well readin that fucked up my day, but 50 does make a good point, pac albums arent done properelly at all, they shud have decent production and at least some decent publicity, u cant jus rely on 2pacs name now to sell his reocrds, young people are into 50 cent now, they dont know much bout pac
-
pac needs lil jon, imagine the possibilities.....
-
Horrible structure in sentences is that. :D
-
if this is true, fuck him... if its fake, whatever.
-
Horrible structure in sentences is that. :D
It might not be online. It might just be that this person typed it up from a magazine but can't type for shit.
-
someone was bored, the sentence structure is horrible lol.
-
man fuck a new 2pac record
-
man fuck a new 2pac record
Until The End of Time should have been the last one. The rest were horribly reproduced.
-
man fuck a new 2pac record
yeah well, its not that his lyrics arent tight, its the mix's that come along with it, i don't know if anyone has heard his 20 sequels to Makaveli, but the beats on those sound much more original, especially, "when we ride on our enemies" I think 50 cent got too sprung of that "hail mary" remix.
-
Wasn't 50 and GUnit on Loyal 2 The Game?
I want to see Daz, Dj Quik, and Johnny J head up the next album. But one can only wish. Next album will probably have Kanye and Lil' Jon all over it.
With those producers, the album would be a TRUE 2pac album.

As long as Lil' Jon isn't yelling all over the record.

would make for worst 2pac album ever. PLEASE NO 50 CENT
-
NOOO, that is not good.
The next 2Pac album needs to be produced by those that new and worked with him. people like Dr Dre, Daz, DJ Quik
-
Yeah i definitly agree the new record should be produced by quik,daz and dont forget johnny j. Thing is, when tupac recorded those albums the beats were different ,music was different so he probably laid those lyrics out over a certain beat or he had a beat in mind and now mixing it with new beats or beats he wasent thikking about dosent sound good.I havent bought a tupac album since still i rise and on that album they took away the beats he had already done and re made them and i thought there were all bad. Im talking about still i rise,tatoo tears ( the original was awsome if someone has it hook me up ) and homeboys. I think a couple of other songs on that album were remade as well. I could go on abou songs that were redone but thats probably another thread. 50 ? as long as hes not all over the album thats one of the other problems they put these guys on the labums that had nothing to do with tupac like obe trice,Ludacris i dont know who else but they are put there just becuaese they are in the lime light.Its time to put rappers who collaborated with Pac in the past like. E-40, Spice 1, C- bo, Ice cube, Daz. On a finale note i juts hope they never put liil jon screaming on one of his albums.
-
hopefully fake.... that'll be the WACKEST thing in the history of rap. fuck 50 cent.
