Disc One:
1. Keep Ya Head Up(10/10) - Yes, Tupac was a sucker for the ladies. What kind of man wouldn't?
2. 2 of Amerikas Most Wanted(9/10) - Tupac was great, but Snoop kind of killed it...I mean he was talking about his dog or something.
3. Temptations(10/10) -
4. God Bless the Dead(10/10) - I love this song. Tupac never meant to destroy Biggie, he was cool with him.
5. Hail Mary(10/10) - Dark, Sinister, Mastermind...all goes with Makaveli.
6. Me Against the World(10/10) - Classic song about how world is against you, no matter what you do.
7. How Do U Want It(10/10) - Not a lot of people like this track, but it's catchy and a very nice flow. The video looked like 'Pac was having fun. =P

11. Life Goes On(10/10) - So true. Life does go on, so forget about all your failures, hurts, and the dark days.

Disc Two:
1. Troublesome 96(10/10) - Hot! Almost like Made Niggaz.

4. I Get Around(10/10) - Love it! Tupac having fun.

6. California Love(10/10) - West Side!
7. Picture Me Rollin(10/10) - One of the greatest songs that Tupac ever created with Big Syke.
8. How Long Will They Mourn Me(9/10) - Great lyrics, but the tone of the voices seems dead.
9. Toss It Up(9/10) - Enjoyable music, but not the greatest.
10. Dear Mama(10/10) - Don't talk about my mama! Seriously.
11. All About U(10/10) - Very nice flow...goes with Tupac nicely.
12. To Live and Die in LA(10/10) - Who doesn't know where LA is?
13. Heartz of Men(10/10) - Real lyrics...listen to it.
Free Music Review: Masterpiece from Top To Bottom
Hit: 5 Stars
Look, their isn't much explanation needed for the greatest hits from the greatest rapper. Its just pure classic. All the way through it's nothing but Pac at his pinnacle. Though it wouldn't have been a bad idea to add in other of his greats such as Only God Can Judge and Staring Through My Rearview. The albums still handsdown a treasure.
Disc 1 - 1. Keep Ya Head Up - Love this one, this really shows what a great caring man Pac was 2. 2 Of Amerikaz Most Wanted - In the second track of this treasure he pays a tribute to his gangsta roots by doing a song with another of the greatest gangsta rappers Snoop 3. Temptations - Probably my favourite out of Pac's sex songs. The beats are very good and Pac's flow is geneious 4. God Bless The Dead - Now alot of people are labelling this as an anti bad boy song which is not right. The Biggie Smalls his eulogizing is a different one who died around 94 which was when this track was recorded 5. Hail Mary - Its dark but very emotional. The Outlawz brought it down a bit with their pretty weak verses but Pac ripped it up in his 6. Me Against The World - It has a good feel to it. This is the title track for his 1995 album. He basically talks about the world being against him which he certainly would have thought back when he was going through jail and the shoot up etc. 7. How Do U Want It - Another of Pac's sex songs. Its pretty good and catchy 8. So Many Tears - This is another of his dark tracks and was from Me Against The World which was full of very emotional tracks. His discussing deaths, talking about homies in the cemetary 9. Unconditional Love - Simply love this one, Pac just comes out so emotional and he was the only rapper who could make love songs that weren't corny. It seriously makes you want to cry. One of my favourite Pac songs ever 10. Trapped - This was one of the several tracks from 2pacalypse Now that discussed police brutality. I don't really think his talking about himself but what he witnessed living in the ghetto 11. Life Goes On - It's basically a Pour Out A Little Liquor II. 12. Hit Em Up - This certainly is an anti bad boy song, and it's also considered the best diss track ever. With alot of bad language he disses Biggie and other east coast rappers. He says he had sex with Biggies wife and even threatens to kill them
Disc 2 - 1. Troublesome 96 - This one shows his thug side as is quite similiar to Made N*****. 2. Brenda's Got A Baby - On here Pac raps about a real ghetto sotry about a teenager called Brenda who became pregnant and couldn't get enough money and ends up getting slain. 3. I Ain't Mad At Cha - Here he says some of his old homies left him when he became famous and he isn'tmad at them 4. I Get Around - A nice party track. Pac went well with the Digital Underground and I always love playing this at parties 5. Changes - This is another track where he touchs more society issues which was something that no one else could do 6. California Love -Dre as usually produced a classic beat and rapped the first verse while Pac did the second. They are both very good rapper which made it a very good song 7. Picture Me Rollin - What his basically saying is for people who mistreated him to picture him rollin 8. How Long Will They Mourn Me? He got together with his thug life crew for this one and added Nate Dogg in the chorus. Mainly talking about the death of one of his homies 9. Toss It Up - Its a sex song and a diss. In the first verse he raps about sex, then in the second verse he disses Dr Dre 10. Dear Mama - Amazing, just like unconditional love. I have never heard any other rapper go so deep and emotional in a song as Pac did. This song is genious 11. All About U - Talks about all the h*** they met, another party song. The only down of this song though is Snoop is replaced by Top Dogg 12. To Live & Die In L.A. - It's basically a part II of California Love. Though a different song, but it's a song about how much he loves L.A. 13. Heartz Of Men - Ends the collection with a thugged out Pac.
Free Music Review: The best of a man on Death Row.
Hit: 4 Stars
I won't call this a perfect collection, but it is the best of his Death Row albums, and 25 great rap tracks. Even if this was all 2pac released, you've got to give him the respect as being one of the greats. He can get hardcore on one track, and loving on the next. A third of this collection is from "All Eyez On Me", which might be justified since it was a double-disc and one of the best albums I've ever heard. Plus we get essential tracks like "Keep Ya Head Up", "Hit 'em Up", "Dear Mama", and the excellent "Changes". There's a few other new tracks here as well. If you're looking for your first or only 2pac disc, this is obviously it.Free Music Review: a true rap icon!
Hit: 5 Stars
gotta love tupac. he was one of raps legends. all his songs bopped and this cd showcases his best works. a lot of these new rappers need to learn what being real means. they go around claimin to be gangsta but they run at the first sign of trouble. Free Music Review: Top Music!
Hit: 5 Stars
The production in this was not top seeing some of Pac's early hits are noticably absent. However every song on this is Pac at his best with most of his 1991-1996 hits plus 4 previously unreleased tracks. This is a collection of hits from when he was alive so don't post silly reviews saying it should have later hits like I Wonder If Heaven Got A Ghetto and Do For Love. I rate the songs the following.
1. Keep Ya Head Up 10/10
2. 2 Of Amerikaz Most Wanted 10/10
3. Temptations 9.5/10
4. God Bless The Dead 10/10
5. Hail Mary 10/10
6. Me Against The World 9.5/10
7. How Do U Want It 9/10
8. So Many Tears 10/10
9. Unconditional Love 10/10
10. Trapped 10/10
11. Life Goes On 9/10
12. Hit Em Up 8.5/10
1. Troublesome 96' 10/10
2. Brenda's Got A Baby 10/10
3. I Ain't Mad At Cha 10/10
4. I Get Around 9/10
5. Changes 10/10
6. California Love 10/10
7. Picture Me Rollin 10/10
8. How Long Will They Mourn Me? 10/10
9. Toss It Up 8.5/10
10. Dear Mama 10/10
11. All About U 6/10
12. To Live & Die In L.A. 10/10
13. Heartz Of Men 10/10
