I see a case for Strickly for my niggaz..that's a great album and I love it to death.

2paclyase now, Me against the world, all eyes on me and 7 day theory are great albums.

those other two are his closest but still not there.

Pac was rap's James Brown in terms of how he worked, which led to lots of great songs but not a single fully realized great album.

He was listening to Public Enemy, Ice Cube, Paris & a little Too Short then going straight to the studio to make knockoff versions of their shit. Should we really be giving him props for that?

it was like 2-4 years probably from first actually listening to 2Pac CDs that I came around to the more popular, Death Row stuff (Makaveli is now my favorite Pac album).

I've still only listened to the double disc MAYBE a hand full of times.

SFMN was great. I got it when it came out and was blown away.

Unfortunately, he went on to be "2PAC" and....

yeah.

that's my personal fav Pac album, maybe cuz its short at 10 songs but I played that front to back a lot when it dropped

I thought both 2pacalypse and Strictly start off great but do have a lot of filler. That bass in Violent tho I always loved bumping loud, vibrating the whole apartment

...really connected with me. I probably consider them both easily his best work. "Strictly" might even be classic to me. I think post-1993, 'Pac kinda went up his own ass and believing his own hype, and his music suffered for it. These two are both great though.

2pacalpyse is a really great album. Strictly was uneven album.

Oh yeah, the Thug Life album was excellent, that's an underrated album.

Me Against The World is great but Strictly was one of my favorite releases of 93. I bumped every song on there and every collaboration fit. It was his best job of mixing his East meets West coast styles. Holla If You Hear Me Is still my all time favorite Pac song.
