Like I said before this is an album with two faces, but still to me is, the Makaveli album aside, the only release after 2Pac died that holds some right of being released.6770621841542 American Thrift X Lord Of The Rings The Two Towers Poster Vintage T-Shirt Washed Black 49.95 ///s/files/1/1023/3455/products/02041989-YW607_mens_0010.jpg?v=1661903188 ///s/files/1/1023/3455/products/02041989-YW607_mens_0010_large.jpg?v=1661903188 AUD InStock SS-Tees All Full Price Product All Products - Excl. Now there’s to often a feeling of disappointment when another track comes by that’s nothing more than a polished up demo tape. Then there would be more focus on the tracks that actually sound good.
R U Still Down (Remember Me), in my opinion, could have serviced with being a single album instead of a double. A point that would become al to clear in the years to come. Considering the fact that this is the first record released from the allegedly hundreds of unfinished songs left by 2Pac gives not great hope for future releases. Those songs often miss the edge and seldom rise above average. Those are mostly the tracks that were far from finished by 2Pac himself and the producers had to fill in the blanks. There are definitely tracks that are worthy of being released but just as much tracks that in my opinion should have stayed in the vaults. I always had a bit of a mixed feeling about this album. The material used for this album all originated from the time between Strictly For My N.I.G.G.A.Z. R U Still Down (Remember Me) is the first record releases after 2Pac died that had no input from the artist himself in the production process. Definitely top 4 from Tupac’s entire discography, dead or alive. It’s a shame! But doesn’t take away from the fact that this is still overall a really dope project. Lovely “Doe For Love” for example is directly followed by should have been left in the vault material “Enemies With Me”.
It’s just further between the dope tracks. This does not mean that the final stretch of this 3LP is all bad. And the Poetic Justice rerun “Definition of a Thug N**ga”.ĭ-side and onwards is when you start to notice a decline, some of these joints going forward doesn’t feel like fully fleshed out songs, they have a demo-ish vibe to them.
My top picks here is the not so subtle “F**k All Y’all”. Side B is more mellow but equally dope, zero skips. “Thug Style” is another highlight on a very strong A-side. Much better than the rushed but still praised “The Don Killuminati (The 7 Day Theory)”.Īfeni Shakur picked out some heat for this one! “Open Fire” is crazy and why it was scrapped while ‘Pac was still around I’ll never understand.
