I can't call someone being murdered in cold blood being a great thing....just saying

Great times to be a Nas fan though. 3 great albums within a year. That's not to mention that verse he dropped on Face's The Fix. He also had a lot of commercial spots that year from remixes with Brandy, J. Lo, Alicia Keys, Jagged Edge, Jaheim, and Boyz II Men to touring with Usher. Then there was that whole thing about him signing with Murder Inc., him performing on MTV, and appearing on the 8Mile Soundtrack.

from a music perspective it was the best of any rapper. Matter fact Pac dropped 70% of his entire catelouge in that year and it included hella classics

70%??

most of his albums came out from 1991-1995......only thing he released in 1996 was All Eyez on Me and 7 Day Theory (posthumously)

70% may have been too high but the music that was on UTOT, Better Dayz, Still I Rise, and some of Loyal to the Game was recorded in 1996. Then you still got AEOM 7Day and other unreleased sht
