Why?

He only put out 1 album on Death Row while alive, correct?

Answer is Eminem on Aftermath.
Dre gave Em legitimacy and Em breathed life into a struggling label.
Together they build an empire.


More interested in why Pac is the answer people are going with
for the original question though.

I mean, Dre while a producer... put out a RAP album that went at
least 5x PLAT on Death Row.
