New Tupac Album Released, Still No Plans for Tour

Elvis does it, why not the genuine black? Even though the rapper known as 2PAC was gunned down in 1996, his music is still making money for Death Row Records. So much so that they've released another remixed version of the dead man's songs in Death Row Presents 2Pac Nu-Mixx Klazzics.

"Seeing and hearing 2PAC again brings back fond memories," notes Death Row Records founder and CEO Suge Knight, who is also the album's executive producer. "The fact that there's new video footage augmenting the recording is a great bonus, both for me and PAC's many fans.". Indeed it would. Seven years without a twitch of life and Shakur still rakes in the big money for Death Row.

If the more literate of the world weren't already in a state of catatonic reverb over the loose state of spelling applied to the album title and songs then the commercial push is going to set them into a recursive hurl. Marketed as "brand new," the 10 rehashed tunes remixed by Tha Row Hitters include 2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted, Life Goes On, How Do You Want It and Hit 'Em Up.

There is no telling just how much mileage 2Pac's posthumous career can last.

On that note...

Articles and all that more wordy stuff

Where in Kentucky - Mammoth Cave National Park: Monstrously, and seemingly neverending, sitting under the home ground of Colonel Sanders, the world's largest cave system. Yucatan comes nowhere close. Not even Cocklebiddy poses a threat. No comparison. Small holes looking up at a big fat long one. Sadly, with possible age and lack of food, no minotaurs to be found within the lime walls.
Homebrew Diary - Wheatbeer of misery: If what can turn a foul mood around becomes the harbinger of the foul mood, what happens next? Turn it into a learning experience. And when that learning curve makes a late break over the plate, you'd better start to swing away.
Homebrew Diary - Blackrock IPA + Hops: It doesn't take a big man to admit that he drinks. It takes a big man to get wasted and perform impromptu sermons naked from a balcony; raving upon the ravages of the insanity of stata bylaws and noisy offspring in adjoining arpartments...
