"My nikka Em" :pachaha:

The fact that the west didn't hogtied Em and beat him with a busted korg for such a mockery of a album, still makes me :snoop:
Well the only reason why folks can’t be TOO mad at this is that Afeni signed off on it and she actually liked the album.


shyt i did too :francis:

Em’s heart was in the right place. I ain’t gonna go out the way to defend it…cause I get it.

But personally for ME…i liked it.

Album was trash but this is literally one of PACs best songs period



Edit and I know it’s an original version but this beat and ron isley way smoother


Yup, this is forever one my favourite Pac songs. Would have loved to see Storch do a few more joints for Pac.

As bad as this project was it still has more highs than "Pacs Life", that shyt had no redeeming factors.

Thats a memory album and moment in my life at 19, it was right around this exact time, right after Christmas. Hennessey was an them, there'a picture of me blacked out, holding a henny bottle around that time, like the Pac stance. I liked that Thugs Get Lonely Too, and The Uppercut too. That rock sample was a part of the era too. Like Elton John and shyt.

I think some of it works, and some doesn't, but I can see someone listening now like what the fukk is this

around 2004 that style of production was hot, Jay, Nas, 50 everyone wanted that Eminem beat lol

The song with Keyshia Cole on Pac Life was better than anything on Loyal to the game to me.... the title track with Ashanti and T.I was also better than any track on Loyal to the game as well. I loved T.I verse on Pac's life :wow: That fact that Em altered the sound of Pac's voice on nearly every track alone makes it worse than Pac's life :scusthov:



Only song I liked on Loyal to the Game was Ghetto Gospel with Elton John, the video has Brodie from The Wire in it :pachaha: Its crazy how the retail Ghetto Gospel has a totally different vibe than the O.G version. The O.G Ghetto Gospel has a upbeat, optimistic vibe to it where's vibe wise retail GG feels kinda depressing. Video of Ghetto Gospel had Brodie bumming around the hood all day and by the end of the song he gets killed while eating dinner :huhldup:

I'll never forgive Afeni for greenlighting this bullshyt.

I honestly think that Afeni needed money for crack… or she was being cheap.

There’s no way that I would think to go after Eminem if I wanna have someone produce my CD. A few tracks but a whole album?? Nah
If they wanted to chase the G-Unit sound, at least call Red Spyda or Megahertz. Pac needed something menacing and hard from the grave.

At least with Biggie’s posthumous albums they made sure to have bangin beats.

Duets album had that cut produced by Just Blaze with Biggie, Pac, Nas, and Mary plus The Comission track with Biggie was rappin over Timbaland/Danja

Don’t Go To Sleep was a good track along with the Nipsey one…


Technically, this album marked the first appearance of Nipsey.


How much clout did u have to get on a Pac album??

shyt is terrible :mjlol: 16 year old me was trying my best to stan it as a pac stan.

nikka had cheesy ass beats and edited pac vocals to have him shouting out banks Yayo and Buck :wtf: crazy because better dayz was a great album two years before

The best track was probably the one quik did

Edit: po nikka blues was good too forgot about that until I saw it posted
