ha ha yeah i know what ya mean, i dont care for this new single at all.
i know people will saystop moaning, but i aint gonna buy a single that has a line missing from one verse and then another two verses missing completely.
then adding on to the fact its got elton john singing, with a tacky eminem beat plus a pritty average video.infact the video is probably the best thing about this whole project and thats not saying much.
i have gone past the point of buying 2 pac singles.i was dissapointed with Runnin, and this will be no different.

I think this is a decent track. It's pretty catchy and I quite like it.
The lyrics from tupac are nice and poetic. They are deep, but not too deep for your casual listener. They have a sort of political stance, but again not enough to put your average listener off.
The beat is decent and is probably the second best beat by Eminem on the album. And probably the third best beat on the whole album. I'm not buying the "Scott Storch beat is cool, it's hot." Because I think it's poor.
This single is getting heavy radio play on all the big radio stations in UK. And I hear a lot of positive feedback from the casual listener. (Yes I used it again).
The video, Again the video is good. I'm not into all these big budget videos anyway. I think it has a nice message, maybe too deep for some, and that it is simple and effective. There haven't utilised unused footage, again, which is a shame. But there are a few images of him appearing in places. Also at the end the message from Afeni and the photo of pac is poignant.
This may not be what I wanted. But I'm fed up with the constant whinging from this board. We can hate on every single 2pac project all we want. Whether it's official, released by his friends, or his enemies or by someone off this board. But at the end of the day he died 8 years ago. I'm gald to hear or see anything new.
It's hard to keep a legacy up, especially for a 60 year old women. She gets bad advice, but the music business is cut throat.
I for one am happy that 2pac's name is still being spoke off. That any of his tracks get a positive response from anywhere, and that any new footage or video is created.
And obviosuly the end result is that there is a postive place in his name, The school. And if it means a lot to Afeni, you can guarantee it'd mean a lot to Tupac.
Remember Tupac was more than 2pac. But that's all you see. A character created to sell records, and get his message heard.
Well, there was my 2 pence. Now skip over it and ignore it like usual. And get back to the bitching.

LTTG feels far too disingenuous to just openly accept simply because of the fact that it's there or Afeni supports it. We aren't a part of Pac's family, so I find it hard to think in the way some people here do. As a fan, I loved Pac's music. Every part of his being, every emotion he was going through, he left it all on wax. As newer generations listen to Pac, his image and his music keeps getting distorted from what he truly was. Do you think people would accept Nirvana or Elvis songs with even half of the changes in Pac's music?? No, they must be in pristine, 100% original condition. Personally, it's not worth having a false reality to keep Pac's name alive. People don't talk about LTTG. They talk about Brenda, Keep Ya Head Up, So Many Tearz, Cali Love, etc. Even casual fans can tell when the essence is there and when it's not.

Pay attention people. Pittsey speaks the truth.
I don't necessarilly disagree with your points. I'd love to hear all the OG's.
Unfortunately 2pac died, otherwise things may be different. But I think that this single isn't all that bad. I'm fed up with the constant moaning. Most of these songs would never have been heard anyway, if he'd have lived.
I accept we all have different opinions. But I prefer to look at the positives and not the negatives. Afeni or 2pac don't owe me anything, and it's my choice as to whether I support him or not. As it is everyones. His message is still essentially there during this track. And Afeni's message is evident in the video. Things may have got a bit twisted but 2pac is still trying to change attitudes with his music. And the outcome will hopefully be positive. Even if the only positive is that 100 kids a year get a good experience at the school.
My mum likes it !!! To be fair though i think its not a bad track and
agree with pittsey that half these tracks wouldnt have seen the light of day had he still been with us . Is it anymore commercial or in my opinion bad as changes ?? The song will peak then fall quickly like all his uk releases so no nead to worry .
