either way its great news!
After 13 years of speculation and legal wrangling, the late Tupac Shakur’s dream of musically uniting the East and West Coasts has become a reality with the release of his ambitious One Nation album. The opus was originally conceived by Tupac in 1996, after he witnessed the media and fan fallout of his personal feud with former friend The Notorious B.I.G. Feeling that the issue had caused unnecessary tension between entire coasts, Tupac reached out to respected Brooklyn collective Boot Camp Clik to release a joint project dispelling any media notion of a Hip-Hop civil war. From Shakur’s California residence, the parties worked diligently on completing a full album in time for release the following year. Because of Tupac’s unsolved September 1996 murder, tracks from the project were indefinitely shelved and remained in limbo for the next 13 years. Now, label A.E.G. has acquired the rights for the 18-track LP, and will release One Nation as a digital-only album. Guests assisting Tupac and Boot Camp on the project include Snoop Dogg, Busta Rhymes, Tha Outlawz, Big Daddy Kane, Greg Nice, and the Notorious B.I.G.

yes, a classic gift to the earth is beeing publicated and realest i’m happy for 2Pac and BCC, i just wish the BCC would have control over the project, its been a long time and held back, so if anyone should drop it with the rights it should be the BCC, i belive thats what is was suposed to be. i know BCC are strong Generals and they will bounce back and recover with no phase or complants BCC will continue to do what they always been doing, that’s making good music and they are the heart and soul of hip hop, thats un changed but grown and matured to a hip hop super group BCC 4 life..
RIP 2Pac one of the greatest the world has seen, we want that Bovaz at Arms and Military Minds, Buckshot Smif n Wessun One Nation raise tha black fist!!!!! Salute BCC is taking over!!!!!!!!!
