Tupac - Shakurspeare

Postby fearless31666 » Sep 24th, '09, 06:45

Shakurspeare is the upcoming posthumously released album from the late hip hop artist Tupac Shakur. It will contain some of Shakur's first songs recorded in 1988 during the so called Born Busy Sessions. Little is known about the album except it will contain older Tupac recordings in their original form. It has been rumored to be the last album or second to last [of Pre-Interscope Material] due to the fact only 13 songs of his remain in the vault (excluding freestyles & demos). The vocals for "Shakurspeare" were originally recorded in acappella form on cassette in 1988 (when he was known as New York MC) and have since been digitally mastered and paired to contemporary beats crafted by Baltimore producer Darrin Keith Bastfield. Its cover will feature a Bastfield painting portraying Shakur as Shakespeare.

Delays
In August 2009 it was announced by Bastfield that the album would be pushed back from it's original September 2009 release date to that of 16th of June 2010 [Tupac's 39th Birthday]. While not officially confirmed, it has been rumored that this may be because of legal problems regarding copyright with the record company run by Tupac's mother, Amaru Records.

Cause the shit I hear is crazy
But your either getting lazy or you don't believe in you no more
Seems like your own opinions, not one you can form
Cant make a decision you keep questioning yourself
Second guessing and its almost like your begging for my help
