Eminem To produce "new" 2Pac CD.

[Guest BacknBlackHoez]

Thursday, November 4, 2004

As we have reported for quite some time now, Eminem has been said to be producing 12 tracks for Tupac's latest album, Loyal To The Game. Red Spyda, Raphael Saadiq and Scott Storch are all also set to do tracks, with Johnny J possibly lending his talents also.

The album will feature guest appearances from 50 Cent, Lloyd Banks, Young Buck, Obie Trice, Sleepy Brown, Nate Dogg, Ron Isley, Outlawz and Eminem. Many fans are expressing dislike over the fact that half of these artists did not know Tupac and are being put on his songs, while Tupac's friends such as Napoleon, Fatal, Treach and others are being removed.

Afeni Shakur and Eminem will serve as the executive producers of this album.

Loyal To The Game hits stores on December 14th.

To borrow (read: steal) an SNL joke from earlier this season:

"I can't wait to hear that," said no one.

Honestly, stop siphoning whatever's left of Tupac's legacy. He contributed a lot to rap, but it's time to put him to rest, no pun intended.

I wouldn't let Eminem near a 2Pac song/verse/chorus/anything again, after the horrible song that was Dying To Live

[Cactus Drags]

I like how you assume you know what 2Pac would/wouldn't want.

i said "i highly doubt" i never said "he definatly would never"

I think this album will suck and Pac is one of my favorites. I think Nate Dogg is the only one who should be on the album since Pac and Him were friends, but I'm pist cause Nate is replacing Tech-N9ne on the song "Thugs Get Lone Too". I guess we're just gonna have to wait and see.

Tech's workin on his next album right now "Everready: the Church:

[Lord Nibbler]

You know what the fuck I think is pathetic and gay?

When niggaz speculate what the fuck Pac would say

You don't know shit about a dead man's perspective

And talking shit will get your neck bone disconnected

- Immortal Technique

I do see your point, though. It's obvious why G Unit and Obie Trice are on the album, but I'm not against hearing new artists on Pac tracks.

"If you went platinum, it aint got shit to do wit luck/

Just means a million people stupid as fuck/"

Immortal Technique does own.

I also would like some of the newer guys to stay the hell off Pac tracks because they never knew him. It's all a way to make money now, releasing some of this crap.

Would Pac have known or collaborated with them if he was still alive? Maybe. Who knows.

Elton John's on the album. He brought the song in when he was on Chris Moyles show this morning. It was quite good.

[tristy]

Elton John & 2Pac?

Amazing.

That pisses me off. Eminem should not beable to touch anything Tupac. Eminem doesnt desirve to produce a Tupac song or even rap in a Tupac song. The only people who are announce to appear on this cd who desirve to appear on it are Sleepy Brown, Nate Dogg, Ron Isley, Outlawz.

[SlickNick187]

OMG! G-Unit is replacing Treach on Loyal to the Game and they're leaving Kadafi off As Soon as I get Home. They shouldn't be fucking around with the original songs. BTW, Immortal Technique kicks ass.
