Advantages: Tupak is awsome
Disadvantages: A bit strage for Tupac

This album hasn’t really grown on me as well as some of his other albums. Don’t get me wrong, its not that I didn’t like it its just quite different to the usual 2Pac stuff. I’ve had the album for about 4 years now and I bet I’ve not listened to it more than 20 times. The best song on it is “Brenda’s got a baby”. Which is the tenth song on the album. If you have the album yourself you will defiantly ... Read review

"2Pacalypse Now" is the debut from the late West Coast rapper, 2Pac. This LP was released way back in 1991, when he was still working as an associate with the alternative rap group Digital Underground, the group which is only really know for the single hit single "Humpty Hump". 2Pac worked as a roadie for the group at the time and would often dance on stage with the group and get the occassion chance to rap, and after a breakthrough with "Same Song", ...
...at it alone. This album was boycotted by many at the time because it was an extreme example of the lengths West Coast rappers would go to as NWA did with "F*** Tha Police", which got them an official warning from the FBI, and 2Pac was promoting a similar message of rebellion against the police in his lyrics, and portraying whites to be the enemy. So everythign was against the rapper and his hardcore lyrics, but despite this, it is a classic an includes ... Read review

...about people dissing Tupac's album All Eyes on Me and saying that it is overrated but this is most likely to a generation gap. I can understand why some younger people feel he is overrated because there have been so many people using his style and iambic meter that the sound is sometimes not as exciting to the younger generation of hip hop fans (this is for the most part...but not always). But for a guy like me who was in his late teens/early twenties, ...
...new. Nobody sounded like him. When he dropped, nobody rapped with such emotion and embodied much of the struggle that many of us was going through...his raps more than empathized with our emotions. When I see evaluations of the album by people I wonder how old are they. Because the day his album dropped, every car that went by on my college campus was bumping that album! I was almost broke and my room mate and I scrapped up the money to both go in ... Read review
