A little vain, but a good listen when you got nothin else to do. I bought this cd right when it came out for the song regulate. And Over the years I have found that many other songs are great on here as well. Ive never seen the movie, but the music is good! Whats this about songs being deleted? omitting tupac songs from this is a blunder, but there were probably monetary reasons behind it. oh well... live by the sword, die by the sword. i think i will see the movie now. God bless internet!
September 15, 2007I can't believe they omitted Pain and Loyal To The Game by Tupac. Those songs (especially Pain) where the songs that attracted me to this album. And they didn't even make up for this by releasing them on his greatest hits album. Either they release those songs or i've got a good mind to start selling copies out of my car.
But aside from that there's some very good songs here. The standouts are Pour Out A Little Liquor, Regulate, Afro Puffs, Big Pimpin, Dogg Pound 4 Life and Gonna Give It Ta Ya
April 18, 2007 |  | Death Row's Secret Second Talent: Soundtracks |  |
The Row was on a roll in 94 with two soundtracks that were above average. The first is "Above the Rim". Pain - by Pac is just another example of how Pac could express his pain and demons as well as the pain of others. Regulate was the hit on this album. It put Warren G on the map. Other standouts are Big Pimpin, Dogg Pound for Life, Old Time's Sake, Afro Puffs, Pour Out A Little Liquor, and Blowed Away.

Death Row sure knew how to put a soundtrack together - those were the days and this one did not disappoint. Hits from beginning to end from just the right mix of artists (SWV - 2Pac - Tha Dogg Pound - Warren G just to name a few). This is one of the better soundtracks out there pick it up if you don't already have it.
September 3, 2006has to be the best soundtrack ever...this album is what got me to listen to rap music. The first time I heard "Regulate" I was hooked..I got the tape when it first came out and wore it out. If you listen to rap music and are a fan of rap from the 90's...buy this album
