My name's Jake Bourey, and I've dedicated a significant portion of my life to music and deciphering the science behind its beauty. As you can guess from my blog's title, I'm especially passionate about hip-hop. I post and review the best songs hip-hop has to offer, old and new. Most are in the “underground” genre, considering that’s where the vast majority of hip-hop's true art resides these days.
Tupac recorded 67 tracks in 11 months during the making of his 1995 classic All Eyez On Me.
Just like Tupac last year, Eazy-E and Ol’ Dirty Bastard are also gearing up for their first performances as holograms, and it’s all going down in just a few months at the annual “Rock the Bells” hip hop festival.

How do you feel about this?
“My mama always used to tell me: ‘If you can’t find somethin’ to live for, you best find somethin’ to die for.”
Tupac - Thugz Mansion
This song is a classic of classics. Tupac represented more than just hip-hop…he was a goddamn one man movement. This is in my top 3 favorite songs by Tupac, and is one of the reasons Tupac is OBVIOUSLY better than Biggie. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a “big” fan, but he just doesn’t stack up lyrically, or on really any other aspect accept for that Biggie had a more powerful flow. I believe he actually possessed the most hard hitting flow ever.
“A place to spend my quiet nights, time to unwind. So much pressure in this life of mine, I cry at times.”

“Fake hair, fake nails, fake eyes too. That’s why you’re bound to fuck with fake guys too.”
If you could hang out for a day with any deceased hip-hop artist, who would it be?
