The World, but from BK
It was a unique time when this album came out.
- People didn't want to believe 2pac died.
- The "I Ain't Mad At Cha" video around the time of his death.
- "Suge Shot Me"
- Creepy "Hail Mary" video.
- 2Pac dissing everyone.
- I remember on the news seeing people wait online in front of record stores for this release.

Looking back...it was quite the experience.

It was a surreal and truly bitter experience for me, personally.

It was like a surprise drop for me. I don't remember seeing ads for it in The Source, Vibe or Rap Pages but I visited the record store weekly for new albums. Obviously an instant cop. Was blown away when I first heard Hail Mary.
I think his intent was to go underground without any promo.
