2Pac – All Eyez On Me
Released on February 13, 1996, “All Eyez on Me” is 2Pac‘s fourth studio album and a defining moment in hip-hop history. As the first double-disc rap album, it showcased Tupac Shakur’s versatility, raw storytelling, and larger-than-life persona. This project was his first release under Death Row Records after signing with Suge Knight, following his release from prison.
“All Eyez on Me” is more than just an album—it’s a statement. Packed with 27 tracks, the album reflects 2Pac’s paranoia, success, and struggles as he embraced his role as a rap superstar while dealing with the pressures of fame and legal troubles. Songs like “California Love,” “Ambitionz Az a Ridah,” “How Do U Want It,” and the title track “All Eyez on Me” became instant classics, blending West Coast G-funk beats with Tupac’s poetic intensity.
