  • Kendrick Lamar Names His 25 Favorite Albums (3 Pac Albums)

    2Pac, Me Against The World (1995)
    Label: Interscope
    Kendrick Lamar: "It really was just in heavy rotation. Constantly going back and forth where we was just mixing and matching songs together. It was really dark. ‘Death Around The Corner,’ ‘So Many Tears,’ you can tell what type of space he was in.”

    2Pac, All Eyez on Me (1996)
    Label: Death Row, Interscope
    Kendrick Lamar: "You know what’s crazy about these Tupac albums? These three records, Me Against The World, All Eyez On Me, and Makaveli [The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory] was played so much that you start mixing up what songs was on what album because there was so much in heavy rotation. With the older songs and the newer songs, they were played so much in the household. All I can remember is just my pops always constantly just playing that album. Just playing it, playing it playing it. All of them really were in heavy rotation. That’s all we knew in the house.”

    2Pac, Makaveli (1996)
    Label: Death Row, Interscope
    Kendrick Lamar: “The reason I like Makaveli, one of my favorites, is the aggression of it. I look back, there was so much controversy about that album that I really couldn’t understand at a young age. Him being on a cross and the 21 gun salute [‘Against All Odds].’ It was just so much aggression and I think that was ‘Pac’s greatest niche. Have that emotion, have that aggression on that track and it really felt like he wanted to go to war listening to it.

      I could sign under 1/4 of this list, but still good to see 2pac there.

      He's is not a type of rapper that amazes me though, I found his debiut album quite wack.
