2PAC ALL EYEZ ON ME POLL

"thug passion" is the most underrated joint

always return to this one and "I Got My Mind Made Up" always slays me the most. it has multiple verses that still repeat in my head all the time, particularly Pac's, Method Man's, and Kurupt's. just quality lyricism front to back, kinda a "fuck you, East Coast, we can do this too" type of feel to it....sandwiched in the middle of some trad West Coast jamz.

Not enough love for "no more pain"

heartz of men for sure

i guess maino plays the guy that shoots him outside the studio in nyc

the movie felt way too much like a lifetime biopic rather than something complex, thoughtful or gritty. At best it was fun at times though (the soundtrack certainly helps things)

7. No More Pain 0

Srsly

Should be re-polled imo.

alleviate your clothes

heartz of men or holla at me or i ain't mad atcha or no more pain or picture me rollin' or only god can judge me or whatz ya phone #????

every beat on this is perfect and sounds like a million bucks

yeah, sonically it's stunning. thematically, lyrically, it's probably his masterwork.

just the first notes of "Ambitionz as a Ridah" are enough to get me amped.

I still love the abstract west coast vs east coast lyricism of "I Got My Mind Made Up", with a relative who's who of guests on it, the lyrics of each verse I can still recite from memory.

"Holla at Me" has a great chorus too.

i love this album so much

you're otm about "i got my mind made up" neanderthal. just stacked with one amazing verse on top of the next

the verses literally run through my head once a week, still.

especially Meth's

even Kurupt is a bit, uhh, less gangster and more lyrical than usual

play Russian roulette and have a blast

*a game of*

also like Redman's "non-believers get my dick and genital backwards"

guessin' "wonder Why they Call Ya Bitch" didn't age too well

tfw the synth turns into a heart monitor beep on “only god can judge me”

best album ever

i still laugh out loud at snoop's bit about seeing the video girl on screen in the million march

we should re-poll this, zero votes for the title track or "2 of amerikkkaz" or "life goes on" is insane to me

2 of Amerikkaz and Life Goes ON shoulda gotten votes, yeah.

my local soccer team won last night, dramatically, so I put on my hip hop playlist and was looking for the right celebratory anthem, and I kept skipping and "Ambitions as a Ridah" came on and my choice was made.

How do u want it all day

fascinating to me that ambitionz is his most streamed song on spotify. it wasnt even a single.

daz killed every song he produced on that album. skandalouz sounds like quik had a hand in it.

i love the mix of guests on this album

ambitionz is constantly referenced and interpolated, it’s embedded itself in the rap firmament

it’s still def surprising that it has so many more streams than california love

"Ambitions" forever

if im being honest with myself i dont think i have it in my top 5 on the album. prob in that 7-10 range

for me it’s “heartz of men”

same

"Only God Can Judge Me" for Rapping 4-tays verse

Or "Holla At Me"

ambitionz is constantly referenced and interpolated, it’s embedded itself in the rap firmament

it’s still def surprising that it has so many more streams than california love

first song on a sprawling double album and people have no attention span these days - idk seems reasonable to me

That doesn’t seem to be enough of a reason. Was it used in a show or as a TikTok trend or something?

I heard it on the radio yesterday.

... on a throwback jamz station but it was still a pleasant surprise.

I think a lotta people also retro learned about it after the Fabolous single with same hook came out

it’s an all time opener, that’s for sure. Although I can’t decide if it’s better than “if I die tonight”

It's a fucking incredible track, 2Pac at his best.

Ambitionz was on Grand Theft Auto 5
