Albums Tupac was planning on:

'Me Against the World II'
'Thug Life: Volume II'
'One Nation' - East Coast/West Coast compilation - utilizing established artist who hadn't hit the mainstream this would've kept Tupac hot in the streets. Great move

Tupac's first album wasn't popular back in 1991. His singles from 2pacalypse Trapped and Brenda got a baby is what most people are familiar with. This the real Tupac with political opinion before he created THUG LIFE persona that many of his fans glorified. The album is far from a classic because the production are outdated, there wasn't any impactful moment this album created and the album never stood out compare to 90s classic debuts that made noise nationwide and were impactful like the Chronic, Doggystyle, and Ready to Die.

Honestly, up until Me Against The World...Pac's career consisted of mediocre albums with classic singles

There was going to be a 'Thug Life: Volume 2" it was being planned with Big Syke and the steps had already been taken to get the greenlight from Big Syke's record label.

2pacalypse Now = :mindblown::why::deadrose::comeon::rudy:

Me Against The World, AEOM = :win::krs::myman::wow::gladbron:

nikka hadnt found his swag yet on this album he basically Ice Cube son and a weak version at that.. Death Row was the best/worst thing that happened to that man

edit: stans handing out 1 stars I see but so far everybody basically agree with me

Death Row wasn't the best thing to happen to him cause Me Against The World was before Jail and Deathrow.

I think the difference between his albums was that he got more introspective and he got more personal with each album.

2pacalypse Now = Black Panther Rap, Slightly Preachy
Strictly 4 My nikkaz = Street Rap (Not too many personal experiences)
Me Against The World = Street Rap (personal Experience), Introspective Thoughts
AEOM = Street Rap (More Real Life Personal than previous album), Very Introspective
ect...

With the media coverage and him being more personal/introspective people were more drawn to him.

on a side note, this album gave birth to the hip hop police and hardly anybody knows.
