Life After Death Vs. All Eyes On Me
The other night in all my highness I decided to pop in Tupac‘s “All Eyez On Me.” After running through all my favorite cuts such as “We Ain’t Hard to Find,” “Trading War Stories,” “Ambitionz As a Ridah” and of course, “All Eyez On Me.” I decided to play “Life After Death” right after.
Although I would say that Tupac all around is a WAY better artist than Biggie. I would have to say that “Life After Death” is the better album. AEOM was filled with aggression and controversy while LAD although controversial still maintained this level of elegance which I think set the standard for artists like Jay, Mase, etc. I personally view LAD as a soundtrack of a man who knows tomorrow is as unstable as trying to hold on to water. AEOM has songs that are timeless and captivating, but what it lacks and where LAD capitalized was the level of depth. There’s certain points in AEOM were I question how songs such as “Can I Get Your Number” and “One More Drink” even made the final cut. But on LAD, I can’t think of one ONE song that wasn’t completely orchestrated or didn’t serve its purpose on the album.
These are just my opinions, but technically these albums marked different periods in both their lives. When AEOM dropped, Pac was fresh out of jail and filled with rage based in his assumption that Biggie and Diddy were conspirators in his attempted assasination. Biggie centered his whole album around his final days giving LAD a better overall theme, but I would love to hear your opinion. Which album do you think was better and why? What were your favorite tracks from both albums?
Below are a handful of my of my favorite tracks from both albums.

porkchop u named the tracks wrong stupid ass its whatz ya phone
# and theres no one more drink track on the album
I’m going to have to roll with Pac. But Biggies shit is really close…maybe because Pac was a more universal MC and was exposed in more markets than Biggies was…Biggie was more of a NY MC. Pac was more of a West and East Coast MC, so at the time of these releases I gravitated towards AEOM, but in retrospect LAD is definitely gaining ground as timeless music…compared to tracks that Pac had that were definitely lacking like the Cant I Get Your Number joint.
All Eyez On Me > Life After Death
That ‘I love the dough’ track is tough to put in this debate since big got help from Jay-Z on that one….u feel me?
what a tough topic, Life after death vs All eyez on me!!!!!!! As a Biggie being my favorite MC, Life After Death having that tone that exudes death and him knowing he was gonna die, and Life After Death is more lyrical than All Eyez On Me!!!! But I have to roll with All Eyez on me because his energy and rage was like a lion in a meat factory. I never heard a song like “cant c me” that would set the whole tempo for All Eyez on me book 2. but 2pac had something no prove on all eyez on me and especially he owed suge but thats a different story. oh yea follow me
