All Eyez On Me vs. The Don Killuminati

7 Day Theory has always been better... and what do you know, of all magazines Complex brings up a pseudo-debate.

I'll read it but I already think I know why they think its better. AEOM was a big fuck u to a lot of people and systems. So I take it for what its worth when certain people pick Don Kill over AEOM. I only take true Pac fans opinion of the matter to heart for the most part. But its one of his most loved and revered albums.

Oh and as far as the vote I think AE's is a tad better. But I have no problem with someone liking Don Kill more. You can't go wrong either way.

Don Killuminati

Wasn't 7 Day Theory a big fuck you to a lot of people, too?

It was, but its not as much as a big fuck u from a west coast point of view. 7 Day was Pac getting back to his east coast roots on some trks. So its more accepted by that crowd. AEOM was a big party that celebrated west coast victory and said fuck u to the haters of that sound. Its a perfect album in the sense of it captures this exact frame of mind at that time. Same with MATW and 7 Day. 7 Day was about to be Pac's transition back to his roots. We were about to hear some legendary music from that man.

I like both but i listen to The Don more often because of it's darker tone and it was just different. i felt Pac on all of those songs. The only song on the album I didn't like was "To Live in Die in L.A."

I didnt get what you meant at first but I think this hits it right on the head. My Vote goes to All Eyez and I would even put MATW above Don Kill but all three are in a close race. Strictly 4 follows right behind them for me.

All Eyes just had the right formula that was needed for that time. I mean just look at the guest on the fucking album. Pac reached out to almost every rapper on the west coast it seems. And still fucked with some east coast cats. It had party, chill, real, and hardcore music spread out on two disc. I remember that album just being my anthem for months.

Don Kill was an eerie experience. I always full a ominous feeling playing that one. Something about that album is supernatural.

MATW is still his best though. He really laid his soul and thoughts out. You can feel the stress he was feeling at the time.
