Do you even understand

how many alternate versions and new 2Pac songs have leaked since back in the day?

It’s so overdone that I don’t even want to listen anymore.

 

[Tha Massive Bell]

Wow. I didn't understand how many gigs they all were. Way above my pay grade.

I still get that itch for the 2Pac fix from time to time.

 

[Preach]

For me personally, there were songs I remember wanting to hear so bad that I thought would never leak. Now we have like 2-3 different mixes of those songs (and some of them are just as great as we thought they would be). And then there's songs I didn't even know existed that are now near favorites. I had about a 10 year break from the 2Pac world but got heavy back into it a few years ago. I always liked hearing different iterations/versions of songs. I also like to spend eight hours mixing multitracks so the nuances are just interesting to me But if we look past versions and alt mixes, there's a pretty good batch of just entirely new songs period.

Post your top 10 new leaks?

 

[Tha Massive Bell]

Some people don't need OGs anymore. Sorry. I know Tupac would love some of this shit.

2Pac - Changes (A.I. Cover)

It has that Vietnam feel to it but he speaks on the Middle East, Timeless.


Here's a question, when you hear your mama's voice on the phone - is it really your mom or just a representation of what she sounds like?

PS. how do I post YouTube LINK instead of embedding?

 

[Rukas]

I listen to a LOT of the soul covers of Pac songs tbh with you lol

Post your top 10 new leaks?

I dunno if there's really 10 completely new songs worth bringing up but here's a few that I really like:

Fade Away
Ride For Me
Where U Been
Outlaw Immortal
Bury Me A G (radio version with new verse)
Road To Glory
Ambitionz Az A Fighta
Don't Fuck With A Killah

If we play a little fast and loose and include OGs we only had remixes of, or OGs we only had in poor quality, I can probably list 20-30 more songs I frequently listen to

Another one I forgot to mention:

[Da_Funk]

Not really an unreleased track but I love this remix. I definitely did not appreciate how intense this song is until I heard the remix.

@Preach do you have a copy of Pain (La Haine remix.

It is a version I downloaded in ~2004 that I have never been able to find again. I was blasted most of the time back then, but from memory it is essentially a high quality version of Pain (above the rim song??). So
anything resembling that will work

I don't have it but I am curious based on your description. Pain already is available in literal CD quality. If it's like the original Pain, then what about it did you like that was remixed? I can probably remake the remix if I know it's component parts. Unless you're talking about someone re-making a modern version of the Pain instrumental?

I dunno if you pay attention but AI tech has enabled us to now split songs into separate instrument and vocal stems. So I employ that to make sorta cool remixes that wouldn't be possible to do before. I post them up on the youtube account in my sig. I am planning to do a Pain remix at one point, not sure what the gimmick will be.

Did we end up getting the version Pac performed with Stretch at the Arsenio Hall show? I saw fan-made remakes trying to recreate the beat, but I wonder if it was ever officially mixed with it, or if the original tape with the beat leaked. I always wondered if we'll ever get it, or if the beat was made for the show, and they only just rapped live to it.

This one:

The actual song didn't leak, but I think the instrumental was released on a Live Squad mixtape or something.

Here's a remix with that instrumental that should give you a fix:

To answer your question, it does exist. There's also another remix of Pain that was intended for Fuck The World (which turned into Me Against The World). We only have a short clip of that one though:

Interpolated melody instead of straight sample.


And you didn't ask, but here's another couple of cool clips. Who Do U Luv clip of a DAT rip:

And you remember the story of how Ray Luv wrote Trapped and then threw the lyrics in the trash and Pac uncurled them and recorded the verse? It's a great story, but Ray Luv actually recorded the song:

Thank you! I didn't know that a Ray Luv version of Trapped exists.

How are we getting snippets, but not the whole songs? I take it there's someone who's got them, but isn't willing to leak the entire thing, or still is selling it for a good sum? By the sound of if, things are still the same, just with fewer players still around, and likely some rare music going away with those who disappear.

Of course, I'll always remember about Streethop. Just maybe not as regularly anymore!
