I'm sure most of the 2Pac fans out there have heard the new album Loyal to the Game. It is all over the Internet and it will be released in retail version shortly.

We at 2Pac Online want to ask all 2Pac fans to NOT purchase this new album.

This has gone too far. We have been representing 2Pac online ever since before he passed away and have always supported his new releases. We have been through 8 years of posthumous releases and have watched what they have been doing. We have been loyal through all of the lyric editing, remixing, unmastered releases, off beat production. We accepted it because it was still worth it hearing another 2Pac album with new material.

Furthermore, we now have chopping of 2Pac's lyrics like we have never seen before. Ghetto Gospel, for example, is missing over 60% of its lyrics! And to top that off, we have vocals added by cutting and pasting 2Pac's voice. We have him saying things like: "G-Unit", "Hey Em Turn that Shit Up!"

Do you think any other legend on 2Pac's level would have his/her work degraded like this?

We need Amaru to respect 2Pac's legacy. To release tracks the way they were recorded. To hire producers that 2Pac would have worked with. To have guest appearances by people 2Pac would have worked with.

So please do not purchase this trash. Download it (you can find links to it) and burn it if you really must. But do not donate to or support the Shady/Amaru collaboration in anyway. Instead support 2Pac this year by purchasing one of his unmolested albums like 2PacalypseNow, Strictly 4 My NIGGAZ, Me Against the World, THUG LIFE, All Eyez On Me, Makaveli, or R U Still Down?

What else can you do? Give AMARU Records a call at (404)508-9511 and let them know what you think about their latest release and how they are affecting 2Pac's legacy. Please be professional when you call
