The 100 Best 2Pac Songs. It is a strange misfortune.

The 100 Best 2Pac Songs

Despite their many successes, legends like Jay-Z, Snoop Dogg, and Nas are now cursed with the unhappy fate of growing older, less interested, and ever more mortal. But death preserves. The Notorious B.I.G., Big L, and Aaliyah will always be in their prime. Nobody benefits from this gone-too-soon bonus more than Tupac Amaru Shakur. By September 1996, 2Pac was at the center of a violent explosion of creativity and media-saturated drama. Turns out this flameout was great for his brand. 15 years later, Tupac's image as king rebel poet and unrelenting voice against injustice remains untouched by the ravages of time and commerce.

Makaveli remains because he is still here. Pac struck mythic chords in large part because he was all in. Makaveli remains because he is still here. Wayne, Jay, 50, and T.I. all borrowed and reconfigured the blueprint Pac authored. Written by Rob Marriott @Tafari. Hip Hop Colombia. Video Promocional A.K.A.

The 50 Best Rap Album Titles Ever

For rap albums, all too often the answer is: not much. LP titles sometimes seem like a total afterthought in the hip-hop world. We can't help but wonder if our favorite MCs frequently just throw together random words simply because they sound cool. And what about the recent rash of part twos, threes and even fours—couldn't they think of something new? Or worse: all those inane, often unexplained acronyms.

It doesn't have to be that way. Some rappers actually take the time to give their projects names that perfectly represent the music within. That made it just a little bit easier to sift through all the wackness to bring you The 50 Best Rap Album Titles Ever, presented here without further introduction.

The 100 Greatest Hip-Hop Beats of All Time

The reason "beats" comes first? Production. It's arguably the most important element of hip-hop. It's the cornerstone of every song, the foundation lyrics are built upon. They dictate the time-signature, the tempo, the tone of the lyrics. One of the biggest challenges in writing a list of the best beats of all time? It can be broken down even further: Is the bigger, more-popular song the better beat? Those factors and more were considered by Complex over a drawn-out process involving constant debate, strategically-deployed rhetoric, diplomacy, and fist-throwing that went all the way to the top. Ultimately, though, every production on this list is irrefutably essential to the advancement of the genre we hold so dear.
