i didn't include any of his 'posthumous' releases, cuz those weren't really his releases. i think i'm gonna go with makaveli, just cuz it's reminds me of a book - something that's complete from front to back with different chapters - aeom has got nothin but heat, but every song on there is a single to me, not really a story....vote for your favorite one.......

Makaveli

An album where you can feel the lyrics commin from the heart.  Too bad NO rappers these days have heart.

Makaveli

I've heard "AEOM" was the album Suge wanted him to do whereas "Makaveli" was what he personally wanted to do back then and I think the lyrics kinda reflect that. The album's close to perfection and the songs are even more passionate than what he'd done before. Also "AEOM" had some skippers on disc/book 2, which Makaveli definitely didn't

As for the others, I still think "THUG LIFE" is an underrated classic, but it wasn't only Pac who made it what it was, it's actually a group album and that's what I always considered it. "Me Against The World" was very personal and overall great too. I don't like his 1st 2 albums as much as the others, they're very good too but Pac elevated as a lyricist later and I prefer the production on his later 3 albums too. In order I think it'd be

Makaveli
THUG LIFE
All Eyez On Me / Me Against The World (can't decide, they pretty different)
2pacalypse Now
Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z.

but he never made a bad album...

Yeah definetly. That Pac album has a definite PE feel to it and since Public Enemy is my fave group....you know.

"Makaveli" was posthumous...

Yes, but Pac intended to release it himself anyway.

^^^ yeah, it was finished when he was still alive and from what I know not edited after his death. So practically i don't consider it a posthumous album
