The Shrine

Just a heads up. I am not sure how many Tupac fans there are. He's been dead for years, and this is his 6th posthumous album. His last album had one of the best rap songs of all time on it, Ghetto Gospel, so I have high expectations for this album =)

Hmm, someone is trying to rain on Jay-Z's parade then.

He's raping Jay-Z from 10 years in the grave =P

I like this clip from Chappelle's Show on Tupac =P

Pac forever, man. I want a shirt that says "What Would Pac Do?"

When he describes the movie, Juice, that he starred in. It's a great movie, he had a very strong presence in the movie, on the level of Edward Norton in American History X.

Is all of this just unreleased material he recorded before he died? (Yeah, I know, what else could it be? But I need to get the topic going somehow.) It seems unusual to me that an artist would have this much unreleased material.

I love that song, one of the greatest of all times.

As it seems to many, many other people.

There are still those who still feel 2Pac faked his own death. Quite honestly, even with as much credibility as this usually costs me, I wouldn't be surprised to find out that it's true. As you said, it's quite unusual to have that much unreleased material - and of that caliber as well, since he's had a few number one hits since he's been, errr, "gone".

I think that Tupac could see some chart topping this year or early next with his upcoming album. There isn't really any major competition, Tupac Shakur vs. Justin Timberlake and Nelly Furtado =P

Suge was in the car at the time. I'm sure he'd check to make sure that was the type of gun wound he wasn't coming back from.
