2Pac - When Thugz Cry OG Appreciation

[RukahsLA]

Happy early 45th birthday to the GOAT Tupac Amaru Shakur..

Beat, hook, flow.. Amazing.. I will neva understand why Pac cut off this legendary track from Makaveli album..




This hook my fav Pac hook of all time..

"Battlescars and closed caskets to multiply
Mothafukkaz die, don't ask why
When thugz cry, we don't shed tears we sheed blood
Do you still wanna be a thug?
When thugz cry.."

And Nas diss on outro..

"Hey Nas, remember that shyt you said?
I don't know what that nikka said, some shyt how about when
Somebody saying thugs till whenever, whenever, whenever
nikka you better really go to a record store go check out some of your albums you been putting out
We be doing this thug shyt for a while now
I know you been listening cause you been biting me and shyt
So uh, recognize and realize, BEFORE YOUR ASS GET ROLLED ON"

one of his best unreleased songs.

Used to have this shyt on tape, 64kbps quality..Classic shyt, the passion at the start of the 3rd verse "busting motherfukkas with uppercuts I leave em with dentures/ cuz in my criminal mind, nobody violates the Don, I write your name on a piece of paper now your family's gone"

I agree. It was definitely the biggest omissions. The alternative recording before the Makaveli sessions might be my favorite version of the track though.



His delivery is more powerful, especially on the thrid verse.
