Comments: "Did you hear about the rose that grew from a crack in the concrete? Proving nature's law is wrong it learned to walk with out having feet. Funny it seems, but by keeping it's dreams, it learned to breathe fresh air. Long live the rose that grew from concrete when no one else even cared. " - Tupac Amaru Shakur
This is an album of Tupac's poetry as interpreted by rappers, actors & Afeni's friends. It's based on the book of the same name that is made up of poetry that was mostly written when he was around 19 before he was famous. It's a pretty good album. I don't think this is how Pac would have done it. Some of it is very "rootsy", some Rap, some R&B type shit & just straight poetry reading. Some of them are very good, some are very bad. I can't stand 4 or 8. The best one's are 1, 3, 7, 9, 12 & 13. - D
