God how I envy the man who listens to this album without ever hearing the OG's before! Because this man gets to hear fresh Pac lyrics and then one day gets hold of all the OG's to these songs and spunks in his pants.
Here is my review; stars out of 5
1. Untouchable (Swizz Remix)
Its grown on me, I dont mind it.
( * * * - -)
2. Pac's Life
Worn out already.
( * * * - -)
3. Dumpin'
People need to get off this tracks dick! Too much made about it from what Ive seen. But it is a good remix. Decent attempt and Carl Thomas fits well.
( * * * - -)
4.Playa Cards Right (Female)
Amaru, the correct title is Play Your Cards Right not Playa. Well they cant get the name of the song right how are they going to get the beat right.
( * / - - -)
5. Whatz Next
Shit. If your not a fan of Crunk you will hate this. Not true to Tupac and not a patch on the original... not a patch.
( - - - - -)
6. Sleep
Get a fucking grip Amaru! The name of the song is not Sleep! Obviously whatever we heard was not going to better the original, that is too hard of a task. So I think a decent effort has been made here. Listenable.
( * * * / -)
7. International
58 seconds of Tupac on this car wreck! Not much to work with but it could easily have been made into a decent song. Instead we have it over somebody playing on a casio keyboard. Garbage.
( - - - - -)
8. Don't Sleep
Why oh why didnt Amaru follow their own lead of Pac's Life and glue a verse from another track onto this one?! Nice vibe and Pac spittin venom! Almost a very good song. Instead another could have been.
( * * * / -)
9. Soon As I Get Home
We all love this! Puts the rest of the album to shame. Is it the true mastered version tho? Or super enhanced like They Don't Give A Fuck About Us? I cant tell with the al tin ears!
( * * * * *)
10. Playa Cards Right (Male)
Better than the female version. Got a bit of bass in this one if you notice. Cant beat the OG though, should have left it as it was like SAIGH.
( * * - - -)
11. Dont Stop (The Music!!!)
Reminds me of DJ Fatals remix off Shining Serpent. This remix does nothing for me. Give me the OG anyday. Dissapointed.
( * / - - -)
12. Pac's Life
Okay, a big let down that the same beat was used again. What should have happened was this. One Pac's Life, with LT Hutton beat, Ashanti, No T.I., Snoops contribution and leave it at that. This really symbolizes the laziness which shines through in the making of this album.
( * * / - -)
13. Untouchable
Its Okay, but far to late to salvage this sinking ship of a LP. Basic beat once again, so boring.
( * * - - -)
OVERALL 30.5/65
To us the hardcore Pac fans this album leaves us feeling like we have heard nothing. As the overall score indicates it is not good enough, it is a bad album and a poor effort. The dirty version may save some grace slightly (those censored parts are annoying as fuck) but it will never be enough.
At least Loyal To The Game had some unheards!
