Customer Reviews for 2Pacalypse Now
Best Album
Rating:
I just don't think Tupac ever had such an important album as this. Gansta lyrics might have sold the most records ... but this was who this man truly was ... this was knowledge of self. If you can't appreciate this album then you need to pick up the books and listen to some Farrahkan before you listen to anymore records.

Best Debut from the Best Rapper!!
Rating:
This Album is a classic! It's old school, what more do u need? "Trapped" is not just a song, it's a story on how Police treated 2Pac And others in his neighborhood. The Whole album is a story, it isn't just music. I Highly recommend buying this album. it's worth the money!!
Editorial Reviews for 2Pacalypse Now Audio Cd
Amazon.com essential recording
All the elements that made this rap star great are already in place on this authoritative debut, released when he was not even yet of drinking age. "Young Black Male" and "Trapped" exemplify his more overtly political style, later abandoned when he signed up with the Death Row label; "Crooked Ass Nigga" is the kind of violent gangsta-rap tune that made 2Pac a bogeyman to the genre's foes. On "I Don't Give a Fuck," Shakur keeps his humor up while conveying the oppressive reaction a young black male encounters while performing the most mundane of tasks: buying some chips. "Brenda's Got a Baby" is a cautionary tale that shows Shakur at his poetic best: evocative and sympathetic, never condescending. The energetic production by 2Pac's Digital Underground pals is fully focused on unleashing his strengths rather than simply rehashing the successful DU sound. --Gregg Turkington
