Among the numerous hits from 2PAC on this generous two-CD set are Brenda's Got a Baby,Keep Your Head Up,2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted featuring Snoop Dogg, and How Do You Want It, featuring K-Ci & JoJo. Among the other standoust are I Get Around, featuring Digital Underground, and California Love featuring Dr. Dre and Dear Mama. 2PAC's GREATEST HITS leaves you with the sad feeling that one of the world's greatest performers left the planet way too early.
Album Review: Entertainment Weekly (12/11/98, p.80) - ...this career-spanning collection is truly vital for painting a complete picture of rap's symbol of martyrdom....[GREATEST HITS] depicts a fascinationg portrait of an artist unafraid to be--or unable not to be--complicated. - Rating: A-
