i'm not gonna try to do this, cuz there's just too many to choose from, but BR, in my opinion, if you're trying to introduce him to a new audience, don't put 2 versions of the same song. I would just go with whichever one you think is better and then use the other slot for another song. just my piece.

 

[Kadafi Son]

1. Check Out Time
2. The Good Die Young
3. Mama's Just A Little Girl
4. They Don't Give A Fuck About Us
5. Lasonesleft
6. Too Late Playa
7. It Ain't Easy
8. Krazy
9. Ratha Be Ya N.I.G.G.A.
10. Letter 2 The President
11. Reincarnation
12. Thug Luv
13. Souljah's Story
14. Letter 2 My Unborn
15. Never Be Peace OG

This was real complicated to do. Whenever I did make 2pac cds for aquaintances(?) I made them about 3 or 4 Cds. There's no way in the world you can make 1 cd of 2pac. Even when I made copies of Pac albums for somebody, I included extra songs to it.

 

[Euphanasia]

i'd make it:

Side A
If I Die 2nite
Trapped
Me Against The World (w/ Dramacydal)
Bury Me a G (w/ Thug Life)
Life's So Hard [Original]
Pain (w/ Stretch)
Hold On Be Strong

Side B
Against All Odds
Life's So Hard [Remix]
Scandelous (w/ Nate Dogg)
When We Ride (w/ Outlawz)
First 2 Bomb (w/ Outlawz)
Made Niggas (w/ Outlawz)
Hail Mary (w/ Outlawz)
Who Do U Believe In (w/ Kadafi, Big Pimpin)

If I was introducing Tupac to a new audience, I wouldn't pick songs like "Against All Odds" because more than likely, it won't be understood because the person is unfamiliar with the background.

I would choose songs like

Unconditional Love
Keep Ya Head Up
So Many Tears
Staring Through My Rearview
Life Goes On
Only God Can Judge Me
Brenda's Got A Baby

Pain
Only Fear of Death
Wonder if Heaven Got A Ghetto
Letter to the President
Made Niggas
Dear Mama
Lord Knows

 

[Kong]

"Holla If Ya Hear Me" would be necessary.

 

[The.Menace]

i'm not gonna try to do this, cuz there's just too many to choose from, but BR, in my opinion, if you're trying to introduce him to a new audience, don't put 2 versions of the same song.

I agree.

 

[Bender]

1. Letter To The President
2. Still I Rise OG
3. Secretz Of War OG
4. Baby Don't Cry (Keep Ya Head Up II) OG
5. As The World Turns OG
6. Black Jesuz OG
7. Homeboyz OG
8. Hell 4 A Hustler OG
9. High Speed
10. The Good Die Young OG
11. Killuminati OG
12. Teardrops And Closed Caskets
13. Tattoo Tears OG
14. U Can Be Touched OG
15. U Can Be Touched OG (Napo Version)

Why not just give them a copy of Still I Rise instead?

Are you talking about you want to make a Tupac CD for someone who's never really heard of Pac b4? I really didn't like your list but to each his own. Hate to be cliche but you really have to go with some of the obvious like Keep Your Head Up and Changes, etc. The reason, you want the popular songs so you get them hooked. Then later on they'll understand the deeper songs some of you guys mentioned on your playlist.

- Keep Your Head up
- Dear Mama
- Changes
- Life Goes On
- Ambitions of a Ridah
- Thug Mansion
- Who Do U Believe In
- Letter to my Unborn
- Until the end of Time
- Smile with Scarface
- One Day at a Time OG
- Never had a Friend like me
- Made Niggaz
- Staring at the world through my Rearview
- Unconditional Love
