Nearly seven years after his death, Tupac Shakur continues to be one of America's most successful recording artists, as his stockpile of unreleased material slowly finds its way to official release. Better Dayz, Pac's fifth consecutive posthumous release, gathers tracks from his legendary sessions as his alter ego Makaveli. And believe it or not, this double disc contains some of the hottest material of the slain rapper's career. Disc 1 includes plenty of songs fueled by anger and beefs, such as "When We Ride on Our Enemies," which targets Mobb Deep and unlikely foes the Fugees, and the Notorious B.I.G.bashing "F*** 'em All." All that bile is tempered by more reflective cuts such as "Mama's Just a Little Girl" and a gorgeous acoustic version of the track "Thugz Mansion," featuring his onetime nemesis Nas. The acoustic guitars continue to ring on Disc 2 with "My Block" and "Never Gonna Call U Bitch Again," featuring R&B crooner Tyrese. Most of the tracks on Disc 2 feature some form of live instrumentation, in stark contrast to hardcore-flavored cuts such as "Military Minds" and the Outlawz-assisted "Catchin Feeling," which would have sounded a lot more raw back in the old-school Death Row days. Thug cats may be taken aback by some of Better Dayz's rap-lite tracks, but fans will revel in this otherwise exceptional release Ron Hart, Barnes & Noble

December 23, 2003: Better Dayz is another album by 2pac featuring 2 cds of unreleased songs. Most of the songs on this cd are average, with only 4 or 5 songs that are REALLY good. There are heaps of tracks here though including a couple of remixes. The second disc is defiantly the best with the first being filled with mostly boring tracks. I'm the biggest 2pac fan and I was a bit disapointed with this album. It's not bad, its just not great. For 2pac fans.
