Title: Thug Life vs Still I Rise
Post by: OG Hack Wilson on March 12, 2011, 07:42:08 AM
Thug Life:  has the benefits of multiple 2pac solo tracks + amazing collabo's (and production) with Big Stretch and the Live Squad.  8 of the 10 songs have Pac on them, but the 2 songs without Pac are also fucking classics by thug life.


Still I RIse: has more songs with Pac on it than thug life (and has more songs total), and strong appearances by Yaki Kadafi and Napoleon.  Downside?  no Fatal and some songs were ruined by remixing (i.e. Tattoo Tears, Secretz of War).  Still has tons of bangers on it though.




what does Dubcc choose?  I'll take Thug Life personally.

Thug Life because it is shorter and more cohesive in terms of production and the overall feel of the album.

It also contains 'Bury Me A G' and 'Pour Out Liquour' which are two of the best 2Pac songs.

Thugs life blowes Still I Rise straight out the water, Still I Rise is a good posthumous album, probably the best one after R U Still Down, but its nowhere near Thug Life Vol.1

Thug Life.

But they really missed a huge opportunity with Still I Rise. 50% had original elements of original tracks, which was appreciated and on point. However, Fatal being removed, Tattoo Tearz, and Secrets of War being messed up, and a weak outro New Outlawz solo track by comparison to the rest of the album made this a let down

They should have kept Tattoo Tearz, and Secrets of War close to original, and selected a solo Outlawz track from the Death Row archives (without 2Pac) to put at the end of the album, and it would have been a lot better

It's a great song, and Thug Life has more of these (like Bury me a G or Cradle 2 the grave) but Still I Rise is still much deeper for me...too many songs to name.
