A classic song, have loved it for ages, will love it for ages to come, as will many. However, has anybody noticed the distinct lack of rapping in it? When they do rap it's awesome, when 'Pac comes in it is just plain awesome but they both only have 1 verse. I just put it on and looked at the times right;

It's a 6 minute 27 second song.

Dre: 0:44 - 1:25

= 41 seconds

Tupac: 2:18 - 3:00

= 42 seconds

Rapping = 83 seconds = 1 minute 23 seconds

1 minute 23 seconds out of a 6 minute 27 song?!! So we sit and listen to the chorus for over 5 minutes, I wonder why they made it like this. Still a great song but sometimes gets a little annoying when i'm not in a 'chill out' mood and actually listen to the music, words, etc rather than daze off, think, or exercising etc.

Do you just go about complaining about every little thing. You hear a good song and you complin they don't rap enough in it. Someones jokes in your thread and you get all upset about it.

To me it's one of the worst songs on the entire CD and have no idea besides that Dres is on it why they made it the first single......Anyway to each is own. I skip over it everytime I'm listening to All Eyez On Me.

I like the original video version better . They put the remix on the album .

Definetly not the best song on the album though

That was the begining of "Extended Hooks" playa...That hook was basically two hooks it you look at it..That hook is what made the song..Forget Pac or Dre's verse on there...Brillant song if you ask me..
Cash Money has a jam (I can't think of it now) that had an extended hooked and it too made the song..
