Yes Makaveli is like the final boss he’s lyrically at the top of his game and could’ve made this a double album with no skips is what always gets me when I think about all the unreleased classics he had at his passing. It’s messed up because he’s was only getting better and making quality music at a rapid pace effortlessly. Man imagine Pac at 28, let alone his 40’s & 50’s on the mic

This is the dopest break down I have ever heard of Pac’s Makaveli album. Crook is right. I have noticed the new generation mostly discredit Pac’s writing ability but Pac was an outstanding lyricist and poet. Great high level hiphop content right here. Shoutout to Tray,Yac and Crook. This vid made my day.
“Money-makin' plans, pistol close at hand, swollen pockets Let me introduce the topic, then we drop it Expose snakes ‘cause they breed freely See me rise, located worldwide like the art of graffiti”-Makaveli killed that!
Trey Dee said some cold shit when he said 2 Pac said we are the strongest most beautiful people on the planet 🌍 and We need to dig deep in our selfs and find that ! 🫶🏿 the young King 🤴🏾 knew how to speak to the soul of the real Soulja’s from the streets 🤛🏿
Finally!!!! People don’t talk about this album with the proper reverence! It’s Illmatic and Makaveli, tied for greatest hip hop album of all time, for me.
I always said that. Both short but no skips and lyrically inclined. I just think Pac had the more entertaining Voice and Energy on the mic while Nas was lyrical genius with his descriptive and heavily detailed pen.
Yeah.... but Makaveli is SACRIFICIAL BLOOD IN THE PLACE OF SIN. SIMON carried the cross (with EXODUS 1831 in it dedicated to Nat Turner who was guided by God)..and 400 years (Exodus) of slavery including a woman called "Moses", Harriet Tubman, leading her ppl out of bondage (no Diddy)....and the FBI COINTELPRO seeking to "prevent the rise of a black messiah "... and if u reap what u sow what does that require?.... Add to that, Jesus came soon for the lost of his nation 70AD when the temple was destroyed as prophesied known as the Seige of Jerusalem? Well...this is 1 percent of what i got in my predestined path and I've been T.U.P.A.C - The Undisputed Pope Aint Catholic at least 6 months b4 Kendrick was claiming to be "in pole like the Pope... Makaveli's Offspring ". I pieced this in late 2012. Last thing I'd say; go google the handwritten tracklist for the Makaveli album...this is NOT my theory...this is his. The Makaveli album is GOD LEVEL .... for real.
Me Against the World is still my favorite 2PAC album, but Makaveli comes in as a strong 2nd; however, that posthumous R U STILL DOWN is hotter because those songs were made around the same time at MATW.
@@melvinhhcp3615 you can pick either one, and yes he was that to our generation. Now if you know how each fell to their demise, then are we really gonna say conspiracy theories when we ask about the roll suge played in his demise?

Eye phux with Crook, but snoop was planted, and not authentic.
When i listen to tracks like Hold Ya Head, I hear a grown man whos been through a lifetime already. Not a 25 year old whos just coming into his own. Even though theres lighter or more up beat tracks like toss it up and to live and die in la, songs like white mans world and blasphemy put it all in perspective. We are dealing with a different mindset here. Listening to Makaveli to me is equivalent to reading several books such as art of war and autobiography of malcolm x rolled into one. Grown up hip hop. Not preachy, just spitting facts. Raw and uncut. This is why I still to this day can appreciate this album and its content. Its still relevant and will continue to be. Timeless.
Facts "Life of An Outlaw" is GIVING GAME . Art of War. "Code 3 , attack formation, pull out your pistols. Keep an eye out for them devil's, cuz they're itching to get ya"

I truly appreciate this channel and what you 3 do. While most other people in the Hip Hop lane are gossiping and snitching on each other, it is refreshing to get artists give their input on the art of other artists. Thank you! ✌🏽
Makaveli dropped when I was in 10th grade. Crook is absolutely right, when this album dropped. People was saying Pac said "Suge shot me" in the beginning of the album. They even played that snippet on the radio in Detroit. This album had the rap game in a choke hold. He passed away 2 months before the album dropped. It was all kinds of theories surrounding his death. Not to mention the videos with him in it was coming out. First time hearing Hail Mary, I kept that song on repeat for days.
All facts. Movies dropping in 97 albums keep dropping... like damn is the brother dead or not ? It was to real. Crazy times from 96 to 00 it was a wild time.
@OnlyUknow2 exactly, right after he passed away. I Ain't Mad At Cha video came a few days later. A month after that, Toss It Up video dropped. After that, 2 Live And Die in LA video came out. Pac was the hardest working man in the rap game
Imagine if he was sitting there giving his input... we missed out on so much. If he would've been born 20 years later when social media existed maybe we would've gotten more from him.
This was dope ! My favorite album in the world ! I got chills hearing these statements about this album and certain songs ! No other album gets to me in my heart like Makaveli does ! How I feel about the songs you guys spoke of , is exactly how I feel ! A dope panel of 3 artists who I respect! 🫡 thank y’all for this video ! It’s deep !
I can rave about this album all day... it's my favorite, nothing else comes close! Pac was at his APEX. The rapping pockets he was in, the lyricism, the passion, vulnerability, the rugged style draped throughout it!?! It's a masterclass from an MC I can debate no rapper has reached on a solo project. What bothers me the most is how better Pac was getting. Usually rappers peak with their first body of work but this man kept leveling up. Listen to the last songs Pac recorded his voice completely changed and the lyrical prowess was different. '97 would've been a scary year. Rest in Power to the GOAT
This album was so raw that you could hear PACs undeniably greatest lyrical talent to the maximum effect. You can feel his energy vibing on each tracks. Blasphemy song which is track #5 was originally “Blast 4 me”. He was so biblical on this track talking about relevant figures like Malcom X and other issues going on over seas. Too bad the song “when thugs cry” didn’t make cut in this album. But overall this would be Makaveli the Don master piece.🔥💯🫡
Listen to white man world in these days of times, I feel what PAC was talking about now. Then it flew over my head, now I see he picture that was painted. Hold ya head was like I could go to prison, if I do I’m hold my head so you hold ya head.
No skips on this album. The only energy I can equate to this album, is when I read the autobiography of Malcolm X. I passion and conviction, in the face of oppression and ignorance, were palpable!
@@mobmoneytelevision Hip Hop wasn't mainstream in the UK like it is now, so it was hard to keep up with the music + news of the artists. Pac died at that time so I didn't know what was going on
My favorite 2Pac song is Who do you believe in.. Because it applies to what really goes on in every hood or urban cities even today... Plus his faith in God was strong.. (I see mothers in black cryin', brothers in packs dyin' Plus everybody's high, too doped up to ask why Watchin' our own downfall, witness the end It's like we don't believe in God cause we livin' in sin I asked my homie on the block why he strapped, he laughed Pointed his pistol as the cop car passed and blast It's just another murder, nobody mourns no more My tear drops gettin' bigger but can't figure what I'm cryin' for Is it the miniature caskets, little babies Victims of a stray, from drug dealers gone crazy Maybe it's just the drugs, visions of how the block was Crack came and it was strange how it rocked us Perhaps the underlyin' fact stay high explain genocide It's when we ride on our own kind What is it we all fear, reflections in the mirror We can't escape fate, the end is gettin' nearer) #Classic #Goat 🙏🏾 My favorite on this album is To live and die in LA, and white man'z world 💪🏾
As usual, great content! Remember ' Pac said on " The Show" Soundtrack, "My Block," he named several places/blocks he resided and/or hustled or frequented.
Man!!! I wish I could've been a part of this episode I'm an ultra Pac Advocate and I would've given a crazy point of view of his bar's but I agree with y'all
My favorite Pac album right here I was 6 years old when it came out back in the days and fell in love with it. My Dad used to bump it alot in 1996, 97! A Westcoast Hip-Hop/Gangsta Rap/Hip-Hop classic 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙌🏾
I rarely heard folks speak on this, but as I listened to you all. And you mentioned go listen to Makeveli Bomb first. I was able to put words on how my love for 2pac and his message is deep as blood. After all these years the trauma of losing him 💔 it hard to go listen to listen to his music and not getting lit because he is the real one. The love pain and anger is so raw that the hurt would take me out of my centered peace. So I haven't been able to go and heal by listening without missing that hommie and being stress at why we couldnt protect our Black Jesus.
The first time I heard “Hail Mary” left me sitting there speechless.. I couldn’t get past that song the first few hours I had the CD .. I couldn’t stop replaying it ..
What's unique about this album is it's like a true snapshot into an artists heart. Controversy and all. The production, sonically there's nothing that sounds like it to this day. A true piece of art and should be studied more. Salute to Dee, Yac, and Crook for this one 🫡
He got too many. Under Pressure last verse, Pain last verse, Street fame first & last verses. I can keep going is crazy 😆. He has the best delivery ever.
@@ronniehorton79692nd verse on me against the world , opening on so many tears ANY VERSE on ambitionz as a ridah , last verse on death around the corner , how long will they mourn me , first verse on dear mama man so many
I really enjoyed this conversation from ppl who really knew the King in my opinion Pac is the best to ever do it, it's funny how these bias rapper's claim Pac wasn't that good lyrically 😂😂 he was a beast and you knew that because the top mc's he dissed back then no one had a reply for him...
Well that’s what makes music so special. When u can get into someone’s feelings and emotions and make them feel like he’s speaking to just you. That’s why he’s the GOAT
I don't what others say about PAC! Being from Texas Pac was an incredible lyricist and an individual an emotional rollercoaster. Salute to Pac and Rest In Paradise.
Man I love y’all all three of y’all man been a fan of all you guys your music and everything and crooks you cutie we’re breaking it down on them. They need a new part in the Bible just for us. Oh man I touched my heart bro, but it took you to dissect that you are a true soldier and you are a connoisseur of hip-hop. Truly appreciate you and salute to you all.🫡🙏🏽🔥
I stopped this to go and listen to the Makaveli album, then came back to hear the rest your masterful breakdown. I really appreciate this and absolutely agree with everything y'all said. Looking forward to part 2. Salute! 💪🏽💯👑
For me pac was like my pops big homey he taught me the rules to the game and how to navigate the streets it’s always emotional regarding pac long live the king

How I feel about the songs you guys spoke of , is exactly how I feel ! A dope panel of 3 artists who I respect! 🫡 thank y’all for this video ! It’s deep !
Hold ya head
Krazy
Life of an outlaw
White manz world
I can rave about this album all day... it's my favorite, nothing else comes close! Pac was at his APEX. The rapping pockets he was in, the lyricism, the passion, vulnerability, the rugged style draped throughout it!?! It's a masterclass from an MC I can debate no rapper has reached on a solo project. What bothers me the most is how better Pac was getting. Usually rappers peak with their first body of work but this man kept leveling up. Listen to the last songs Pac recorded his voice completely changed and the lyrical prowess was different. '97 would've been a scary year. Rest in Power to the GOAT
Pac using the church bells in Hail Mary was genius. Gives you goosebumps
That somg still gives me the willies to this day
This album was so raw that you could hear PACs undeniably greatest lyrical talent to the maximum effect. You can feel his energy vibing on each tracks. Blasphemy song which is track #5 was originally “Blast 4 me”. He was so biblical on this track talking about relevant figures like Malcom X and other issues going on over seas. Too bad the song “when thugs cry” didn’t make cut in this album. But overall this would be Makaveli the Don master piece.🔥💯🫡
Facts crook, I done shed so many tears fulla that liqour. specially that Lord knows and hold ya head
Loved this content, keep it coming 💯👍🏽y'all got my subscription
I was 6 when pac died. heard Makaveli at 13 but to young to understand/appreciate it at that time. It’s easily now my fav album it aged like fine wine
Listen to white man world in these days of times, I feel what PAC was talking about now. Then it flew over my head, now I see he picture that was painted. Hold ya head was like I could go to prison, if I do I’m hold my head so you hold ya head.
Greatest hip hop album ever 🎯
Best album along with all eyez on me !
No skips on this album. The only energy I can equate to this album, is when I read the autobiography of Malcolm X. I passion and conviction, in the face of oppression and ignorance, were palpable!
The only one I used to skip was "Just Like Daddy."
I was 10 years old when I got this album for Christmas in 96❤
Wow. 10 years old, listening to this
@@TwoH.Q u grown fast in Compton my whole family was playing pac all eyez on me made me love rap I was 9 when that came out💯
My aunt worked at a newspaper where they would review albums so she gave me Makaveli. I was 15. I didn't know Pac + Makaveli were the same person lol
@@Topsey2000 lol I remember when he died the Compton swapmeet had all the unreleased music it was crazy back then
@@mobmoneytelevision Hip Hop wasn't mainstream in the UK like it is now, so it was hard to keep up with the music + news of the artists. Pac died at that time so I didn't know what was going on
love the breakdown of his rhyme schemes - no one has the schemes AND the passion that he had
Crook was in his bag. Pac had incredible technical ability. Those examples he give were only glimpses
🎯 Verse 3 of the song "me against the world"... Oooof
My favorite 2Pac song is Who do you believe in.. Because it applies to what really goes on in every hood or urban cities even today... Plus his faith in God was strong.. (I see mothers in black cryin', brothers in packs dyin'
Plus everybody's high, too doped up to ask why
Watchin' our own downfall, witness the end
It's like we don't believe in God cause we livin' in sin
I asked my homie on the block why he strapped, he laughed
Pointed his pistol as the cop car passed and blast
It's just another murder, nobody mourns no more
My tear drops gettin' bigger but can't figure what I'm cryin' for
Is it the miniature caskets, little babies
Victims of a stray, from drug dealers gone crazy
Maybe it's just the drugs, visions of how the block was
Crack came and it was strange how it rocked us
Perhaps the underlyin' fact stay high explain genocide
It's when we ride on our own kind
What is it we all fear, reflections in the mirror
We can't escape fate, the end is gettin' nearer) #Classic #Goat 🙏🏾 My favorite on this album is To live and die in LA, and white man'z world 💪🏾
As usual, great content! Remember ' Pac said on " The Show" Soundtrack, "My Block," he named several places/blocks he resided and/or hustled or frequented.
Tray & Crook???? Oh yeah, Im here for it. SUBSCRIBED immediately. East Coast (DC) LOVE......RIP PAC
Man!!! I wish I could've been a part of this episode I'm an ultra Pac Advocate and I would've given a crazy point of view of his bar's but I agree with y'all
Thank you for holding the goat down long love TUPAC
Had to subscribe to you all for braking down the goat's lyrics in detailed unlike none.
Crook breaking down bars got me hype over here listening I'm rapping word for word 🔥🔥🔥
My favorite Pac album right here I was 6 years old when it came out back in the days and fell in love with it. My Dad used to bump it alot in 1996, 97! A Westcoast Hip-Hop/Gangsta Rap/Hip-Hop classic 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙌🏾
A MILLION THINGS GO THROUGH MY MINNNNNNNND/ YOU AIN'T GOTTA BE IN JAIL TO BE DOING TIMMMME R.I.P Badass R.I.P. Tupac.
The way bomb first went into Hail Mary was cinematic
2pac was more than a rapper with a message. He was a versatile artist. That could do it all🎉
Go on and break down some Crooked I music
Salute to the comments section and peace to the Hosts and the Hostess 🙏👊👍
.........
LBC ya 💯💯💯
First and only album I've never pressed skip, and I listen to a range of artists and genres. Woo!!! This album is greatest album of all time 💯
I rarely heard folks speak on this, but as I listened to you all. And you mentioned go listen to Makeveli Bomb first. I was able to put words on how my love for 2pac and his message is deep as blood. After all these years the trauma of losing him 💔 it hard to go listen to listen to his music and not getting lit because he is the real one. The love pain and anger is so raw that the hurt would take me out of my centered peace. So I haven't been able to go and heal by listening without missing that hommie and being stress at why we couldnt protect our Black Jesus.
Damn, I miss Tupac!
"Just like daddy"
"To Live And Die in La"
"White Man'z World"
"Krazy"
"Hold ya Head"
Thanks for setting the record straight!!!!!!!!
The first time I heard “Hail Mary” left me sitting there speechless.. I couldn’t get past that song the first few hours I had the CD .. I couldn’t stop replaying it ..
I put this album in and it was so fire that it melted my stereo system 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👑👑👑👑👑 long live KING PAC
What's unique about this album is it's like a true snapshot into an artists heart. Controversy and all. The production, sonically there's nothing that sounds like it to this day. A true piece of art and should be studied more. Salute to Dee, Yac, and Crook for this one 🫡
Life of an outlaw best makaveli song on the album!
I love all y’all for this show. Tupac is my all time favorite. I haven’t heard a breakdown like this, ever. PAC’s lyrics run threw my mind daily
Greatest album of all time by the greatest rapper of all time
The greatest album of all time imo. RIP GOAT. Album was so prophetic.
The energy of that album is crazy 🔥
White man's world & Hold ya Head talk about a thug tear 😢😂😂❤👑🐐
Pac actually had some of the best, more than just Hail Mary, openings to verses in hip hop history.
Hell yeah! On this album especially.
He got too many. Under Pressure last verse, Pain last verse, Street fame first & last verses. I can keep going is crazy 😆. He has the best delivery ever.
@@ronniehorton79692nd verse on me against the world , opening on so many tears ANY VERSE on ambitionz as a ridah , last verse on death around the corner , how long will they mourn me , first verse on dear mama man so many
This is my favorite Pac album. And my top 3 favorite hip hop album of all time.
I really enjoyed this conversation from ppl who really knew the King in my opinion Pac is the best to ever do it, it's funny how these bias rapper's claim Pac wasn't that good lyrically 😂😂 he was a beast and you knew that because the top mc's he dissed back then no one had a reply for him...
Good point 👍🏾
Well that’s what makes music so special. When u can get into someone’s feelings and emotions and make them feel like he’s speaking to just you. That’s why he’s the GOAT
Yes he did
I love y’all for breaking down the prophet’s words Makavelli Da Don forever ❤️💯
I don't what others say about PAC! Being from Texas Pac was an incredible lyricist and an individual an emotional rollercoaster. Salute to Pac and Rest In Paradise.
Part 2 please ....new subscriber! I consume anything Pac related
Man I love y’all all three of y’all man been a fan of all you guys your music and everything and crooks you cutie we’re breaking it down on them. They need a new part in the Bible just for us. Oh man I touched my heart bro, but it took you to dissect that you are a true soldier and you are a connoisseur of hip-hop. Truly appreciate you and salute to you all.🫡🙏🏽🔥
That Album is a Masterpiece
That intro beat so ill

I stopped this to go and listen to the Makaveli album, then came back to hear the rest your masterful breakdown. I really appreciate this and absolutely agree with everything y'all said. Looking forward to part 2. Salute! 💪🏽💯👑
For me pac was like my pops big homey he taught me the rules to the game and how to navigate the streets it’s always emotional regarding pac long live the king
Preach Crook!!! And Pac was only 25 spitting bars like that...
Have you ever seen a crackhead?? THATS eternal fire!
That’s one of the heaviest things I’ve ever heard anyone say. I caught that immediately!
Hold Ya Head might be the most powerful rap song i've ever heard.I don't even know how to describe it.That song is a spiritual experience.
🫡
I appreciate the three of you making these videos and hearing your thoughts introspective on some of the classics like the Don Makaveli #SeaTown
Love this episode..should have been longer..I can literally listen to 2pac stories ALL DAY LONG
Pac was the Truth Pac was Poe and was Taught and Raised Right He Was Gifted student he went to a high school like Fame wit jada in Baltimore the most Influential 1 or 2 Most Famous Rappers of All Snoop is the other
Although me against the world is my favorite album of all time, white manz world is my favorite pac song 💯💯💯💯
