1992 - 2Pacalypse II : Now & Forever

  • Late 91 - May. 92 : recording sessions for a project of sequel to 2Pacalypse Now, soon turned into a whole new album titled Troublesome 21, rejected, reworked and finally released as Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z..
  • Sources : handwritten tracklists ; That's The Way It Is cassette trailers ; demo tape rumor

### - WORK IN PROGRESS. This compilation does not follow any DAT/handwritten tracklist, because none of them gathers more than a hand of leftover tracks from Troublesome 21 album. It has been confirmed by Banned of Bomb1st Forum that there was an early material sequence of that album before it turned into Troublseome but the content of it is still unknown. - ###

From Mr. 2Pacalypse to Mr. Troublesome

The 2Pacalypse Now album was even not released that 2Pac already thought to his next album. The first tracklist we have from his Tales of a 90's N.I.G.G.A. notebook for a new album contains freshly recorded "Part Time Mutha" and "Souljah's Story", which entered the released album at the last minute instead of "Fade Away".


2Pac as Bishop in Juice movie

Is Tupac turning into Bishop ?

2Pac appeared for the second time in a movie but this time as of the second role in Ernest R. Dickerson's Juice movie (cf. trailer). He plays Bishop, a young black male becoming crazy, wanting to kill people... Even in the first rule of the ethic code of the thugs (cf. Thug Life Demo), Tupac does not have any illusions. The destiny of a young black male from the ghetto is to go in prison and to end up being killed... The destiny of 1 black man in 21 (cf. Strictly Dope's 1 In 21 back cover).

Unfortunately, he failed to give also a song to soundtrack. He was a unknown rapper at that time they finished the tracklist (his album was maybe just published). A pity because it would have been a wonderful Hip-Hop act to appear among his friends Naughty By Nature ("Uptown Anthem"), his idols Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, old school stars Too $hort and EPMD, R&B stars Guy members Aaron Hall & Teddy Riley, Bomb Squad's soul produced group Son of Bazerk, Latino future superstars Cypress Hill...

But he was probably to busy with his own album to put forward the good record to be in. Tupac really gave a voice to the character of the movie in the lyrics he wrote and rapped in "Troublesome (Bishop's Theme)" in late December, but when the soundtrack was already out. It will be his most important recording of this period.

Like if Souljah was speaking with Tupac... 


 

1. Oct. 1991. "New Album".

"Part Time Mother" and "Soldier Story" were noted "standby" in the last 2Pacalypse Now tracklist (cf. Tales of a 90's N.I.G.G.A.). So the idea of the second album project could have occurred even before the release of the first album the 12th of November. In fact it could be the evolution of the idea of an EP which appears in some tracklists (titled "Extra Cuts", "Straight From The Underground", "The Underground Railroad", and "Tales of a 90's N.I.G.G.A.").

"Crooked NiggaS 2" is the follow up to "Crooked Ass Nigga", it firstly appears in the "2Pacalypse Now+Tales of a 904s N.I.G.G.A." tracklist in May. "2Pac Go Ahead & Rock Dis" could presumably be an early concept for "No Part of Dis", considering the lyrics ("Piece or Peace" could . "5 Drunken Styles" is an evolution from the title "20 Drunken Styles"/"This Is the Brain of a 40 Once" with Treach which appears in 2Pacalypse Now tracklists. If the song was not recorded yet, it will finally turn into "Pass The 40" over the same topic and "5 Deadly Venoms" with the same Treach.

2. Nov. - Dec. 1991. "Post 2Pacalyspe Now".

"Fade Away" was a last minute leftover from 2Pacalypse Now. So the album is probably now released.

"Troublesome" has been just recorded or more likely is about to be (the subtitle "Bishop's Theme" will then disappear, it refers to Juice movie that was about to be published in Jan. 1992, where 2Pac plays a character who becomes crazy). Already having a follow-up to "Crooked Ass Nigga", 2Pac plans to record a follow-up to "Souljah's Story". "Backstabbas" was already appearing in 4 2Pacalypse Now tracklists. Nothing says if the song was recorded (with Big D maybe) or just the lyrics written down. 

Unfortunately, "Looking 4 Me In The Whirlwind" will not be recorded, but the idea of the song will reappear in late Strugglin'/Point The Finga tracklist (cf. Fragile).

 
 

3. Dec. 91 - Jan. 92. "2Pacalypse II : Revenge of the Rebel".

"Troublesome" has probably been recorded now. "Soulja II" may already be recorded even if it has not its final title, it has the right producer credit (but it could also be an early concept for "When I Get Free"). 

This draft also incorporates the outtakes from 2Pacalypse Now "Phade Away" and "Revenge of the Lunatic" (this one supposedly with a new mix with a first appearance of DJ Daryl of Richie Rich's group 415). 

"Papa's Song" is firstly appearing here but will disappear after that until advanced Troublesome tracklists... The track is said to have been recorded circa October 91, so maybe 2Pac tend to give the track to the Kidz since he included it again in Troublesome.

 
 

4. Feb. 1992. "Troublesome : 2Pacalypse II"

"Uplift The Race" was an alternate title for "Panther Power" in early tracklists of 2Pacalypse Now (cf. Tales of a 90's N.I.G.G.A.), but very probably for a new version (was the remix with a female chorus the only attempt ?). "Death Row at 18" was an anticipated concept, before "16 on Death Row" got recorded in April. "Oaktown's Anthem" could be an anticipated concept for "Gaffled Like That".

5. March 1992. "2Pacalypse II : Troublesome"

The "DJ D" credit could indicate that these tracks have been recorded or about to be... "Nothing But Love", "16 on Death Row" and "Still Don't Give A Fuck" (another follow up) entered the tracklist for long. But "Backstabbas" will dropped after that... as well as "Revenge of a Lunatic" (which was supposed to have a DJ Daryl beat) and "Souljah II" (Maybe 2Pac returned to "Souljah II" instead of "Revenge" because of "Revenge of a Lunatic").

"Mo' Niggas" is probably an early concept for "Throw Them Thangs" (with Spice 1 or The Gov's backing voices, and many "mothafuckin" and "niggas" words).

"My Suicide Note" and "About The Fame" (early concept for "Don't Call Me Bitch" ?) are probably just concept titles.

 
  
 

6. March 1992. Untitled.

Almost the same songs than the previous tracklist. "Backstabbas", "Souljah II" and "Revenge of a Lunatic" have disappeared.

7. Circa April 1992. "Troublesome"

"Throw Them Thangs", "Po Nigga Blues" and "Keep Ya Head Up" are new DJ Daryl sessions recorded circa March - April 1992. "When I Get Free" is the first Lay Law produced song (maybe here just lyrics written) recorded as a replacement for "Revenge of a Souljah". "5 Deadly Styles" concept returned with new planned guests (only Havoc - probably from South Central Cartel - will be replaced by Majesty).

8. May 1992. "Preview unmixed 2Pac Troublesome"

"Don't Call Me Bitch", "I Wonder If Heaven Got A Ghetto", "Strictly 4 My Niggas" and "Trapped 92"  have been recorded. It now clearly looks like the Troublesome 21 album (see that page for the next tracklists of the album).

Another side project lead by 2Pac was the Thoro Headz album that could have included "Flex" (but maybe just a 2 tracks single then, probably more advanced in late 93 with "Runnin' From The Police" and "Introduced 2 The Game"). Known unleaked song could be "Wanna G" with a long intro by 2Pac.


 
with Allen Hugues
who directed the Video for "If My Homie Calls"

Tupac Shakur and Allen Hughes in 92

Allen Hughes and his brother Albert directed two music video of Tupac's first album : "Brenda's Got A Baby" and "If My Homies Call". That's why they gave him a role in their movie Menace II Society. It is said 2Pac wasn't happy with the character of Sharif, a young man who became Muslim and sermonizes his friends but nobody never listen to him... Tupac pretended the character was not logical or weak - what is possible -, Allen Hughes said Tupac wanted a bigger role with more scree exposure, a strong role of gangster, not a character everybody is making fun of... In fact, it could have been a great role for him, to embody such a positive character. In the released movie, Sharif is a bit too in the background. It would have been a real performance if Tupac would have succeed in giving him relief. The movie somewhere beyond the legend lacks of some great side moments. The father of Sharif, with his speech about "if Allah can make my son a bigger man...", has more importance than his son.

So the brother Hughes were also about to receive a song from Tupac and his friends Wicked & The Mouse ("Niggers In The Pen", cf. Thug Life Demo Tape). It would have been a very great promotion for their album.


DETAILED TRACKLIST

(Special thanks to Dominator & Filla of Bomb1st Forum for sample credits)

01. Revenge of the Soulja (aka Soldier Like Me) / Big D The Impossible & Stretch

  • 1991/11 (?). Remixed and combined with a verse from "Judgement Day" as "Soldier Like Me" in Loyal To The Game (2004, Amaru).  
  • Story. 2Pac is rapping here with the Souljah's altered voice, the alter ego he created in "Soulja's Story" in 2Pacalyspe Now. So this song is a follow up to the story of his violent avatar. He will record two other versions of that second part : "When I Get Free" for Troublesome 21, finally leftover, and "Souljah's Revenge" which was released in Striclty 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z.. The song is said to appear in an early tape of 2Pacalypse II with "Changes", "Papa'z Song", "Crooked Nigga Too"... Considering the lyrics very rude against the police, it could have been written and recorded not long after "Crooked Nigga Too" (late Oct. 91), around the time of "Troublesome" (circa November).
  • Samples: 
    • Isaac Hayes - "Joy" (bassline)
    • The Lord’s Prayer : Matthew 6:9-13 ; 
    • 2Pac – "Soulja’s Story" (vocals interpolation : "all you wanted to be a soulja")
02. Fade Away feat. Wicked J & Cooley Ranks (chorus) / Big D The Impossible (?), DJ Fuze (?)
  • 1991/06 (~). 
  • Story. Wicked J is not Mopreme aka The Wycked but Julian Brooks from The Mod Squad (also featured in "Static (Original)" and in Funky Aztecs "Don Quixote", cf. Chicano Blues). Cooley Ranks is featured in Raw Fusion's "Ah Nah Go Drip" and could be the same person than Coolie Ranx who has the song "New York Hot" in the compilation Modern Girl : Shi is Mine (1988) and later sang for the ska groups Toasters and Pilfers. Both were 2Pac labelmates at T.N.T. recordings. The beat of that song is really close to Raw Fusion's "Do My Thing" (cf. Live From The Styleetron). so it could be a reason for the track for being taken off from the album (probably at the very last moment, circa Sept. - October 91). The song then re-appears in 2Pacalypse II early tracklists.
  • Samples :
03. No Part of Dis / Darrin Harris
  • 1991/09-10 (~). 
  • Story. 2Pac talks about the Flavor Unit - Treach's posse - in the beginning (like he did at the end of "Funky Freestyles" and in "Black Starry Night"). The production comes from an engineer/producer who was working with Richie Rich's group 415 alongside with DJ Daryl who will produce many songs for 2Pac in early 1992. The song is a part of an untitled tape leaked with incomplete versions of "Tears of a Clown", "Scared Straight 91" and "That's Just The Way It Is", the latter one having been recorded in late 91. Strangely, none of them appear in any tracklist of 2Pacalypse II except if we consider that "2Pac Go 'head & Rock Dis" and "Piece or Peace" were anticipated concept titles for "No Part of Dis" (2Pac plays with "want peace / get a part" of "Dis" ; and interpolates "2Pac go hit rock bitches")... It is said it could feature a 3rd verse by Money B, or maybe just a speaking outro.
  • Samples : 
04. That's The Way It Is (Changes) feat. Poppi (chorus) / Big D The Impossible
  • 1991/12/25. Remixed in Greatest Hits (1998, Death Row) with a new hook and a slowed voice (to make Pac sound older).  
  • Story. 2Pac says 1992 in the song but it is known to have been recorded around the Christmas day, like "Troublesome" and maybe the reference track version of "Ghetto Gospel". Poppi was already a singing voice on "Part Time Mutha" in 2Pacalyspe Now and will also sing in "Papa's Song".
  • Samples: 
05. N.I.G.G.A. feat. Mouse Man & Mocedes (aka Mopreme) / Big D The Impossible
  • 1991/11-12 (?). Awfully remixed on Loyal To The Game (2004, Amaru) as "N.I.G.G.A. [Never Ignorant Getting Goals Accomplished] feat. Jadakiss".
  • Story. Mopreme says "92" but like often he could be anticipating the publishing of his project. 2Pac13.com gave the date 1992/08 like other songs from the trio, but it is also mistakenly written produced by Truman Jefferson like other songs from that time... The point is that Mopreme Shakur here has his first nickname - used also when he was rapping in two songs of Tony! Toni! Toné! album The Revival (1990, Wing) - not yet The Wycked (funny to notice that Mopreme appeared on an official record before Tupac). The song appears in many early 2Pacalypse Now tracklists but the two guests are never credited... Big D is said to be the original producer of the song according to the Loyal To The Game booklet. Could it exist another solo version, maybe produced by Pee Wee, like it appears in early tracklists ? Probably the song was given to Mocedes solo project titled I'm Too Big 4 This Small Shit. Mouse Man was Pac's first rap partner with the East Side Crew in 1985-1987 (cf. The Early Years). Unfortunately, he never appeared in any official records.
  • Samples : 
06. Tearz Of A Clown (Shock G Remix) / Big D The Impossible REMIXED by Shock G
  • 1990/12 (~) - 1991/12 (~) (new mix). 
  • Story. Very important track in the process of 2Pacalypse Now. Leaked in the sampler tape with incomplete "That's the Way it Is (Changes)", "No Part of Dis" and "Scared Straight", this new mix was presumably made circa late 91 for the project of a follow-up to 2Pacalypse Now.
  • Samples : 
07. Backstabbaz (?) / Crooked Nigga Too (First Version) (?) / Big D (?), Stretch (?) - SNIPPET
  • 1991/01 (?) - 1991/10 (?) - 1992-02 (?). 
  • Story. This snippet was leaked by Banned of Bomb1st. It is probably the speaking intro of a song. The beat is not really sounding like DJ Daryl, more likely a New York thing. The topic is about traitors speaking behind, so it could be "Neva Surrenda", "Backstabbas" or why not an alternate early version of "Crooked Nigga Too", before 2Pac being arrested and beaten up by the police... All appearing in the process of 2Pacalypse Now (cf. Tales of a 90's N.I.G.G.A.). Or eventually the legendary "Crooked Cop Killer" or the mysterious "Crooked Wit A Crown". We have a handwritten lyrics for the song Backstabbaz specifically noted for 2Pacalypse II, but the beat is not sounding like a DJ Daryl thing, so maybe more likely a Big D or a N.Y. Stretch's kind of thing.
08. Ghetto Gospel (reference for The Kidz) / Big D The Impossible
  • 1991/12 (~). Awfully remixed in Loyal To The Game featuring Elton John (2004, Amaru).
  • Story. This first version is said to be a reference track recorded for the Kidz album. 2Pac re-recorded another version with Jesse The Kid for A Very Special Christmas 2 but it was leftover from the final product for an unknown reason.
  • Samples : 
09. Don't U Trust Me feat. Roniece (?) & Poppi (chorus) / Big D The Impossible
  • 1991/11-12 (~). 
  • Story. The chorus was before credited to Dave Hollister and Roniece like in "Brenda's Got A Baby" and in Deb-E's Drop The Grease. But the voice clearly sounds like Poppi from "Part Time Mutha", "Papa'z Song" and "Changes", three songs recorded between September to December 1991 with Big D. The woman's voice could also not be Roniece... There is another unfinished take with only Poppi at the chorus. In common versions, Poppi's soulful voice is mostly covered by the Roniece(?)'s one, what is often not really appreciated. But the Poppi's version sounds incomplete. It has been said that the song could be a reference track with alternate title "Sista'z Song" for Mista aka Yonnie Stokes (cf. Dayz of a Criminal / 2Pacalypse Now / Honor Among Thugz), for the The Kidz/Tha G'z album (what would explain the fact the song is not really finished). But the point of view of the lyrics seems to be masculine.
  • Samples : 
10. Gotta Make A Change (Interlude) / Big D The Impossible  
  • 1991/12/25. 
  • Story. Big D would have confirmed this interlude was made the same day than "Changes".
11. Black Starry Night (Against All Odds) (Intro) / DJ Daryl
  • 1992/01-04 (~). Remixed in R U Still Down (1997, Amaru). 
  • Story. 2Pac announces the featuring of Above the Law, The Underground Railroad and Treach.
  • Samples :
12. Let Them Thangs Go feat. Spice 1 (?) & The Govenor (?) (speaking) / DJ Daryl
  • 1992/03 (~). Fairly remixed in R U Still Down (1997, Amaru). 
  • Story. DJ Daryl is a member of Richie Rich's group 415. "Mo' Niggaz" ("Mo-therfucking Niggaz" or "More Niggaz") was an early title for the song. Between the two verses, it could be Spice 1 speaking. We can hear an excerpt of "Talk like sex" from Kool G Rap's Wanted Dead or Alive album (1990, Cold Chillin').
  • Samples : 
13. Gaffled Like That feat. The Govenor & Richie Rich / DJ Daryl
14. 16 on Death Row feat. Cool Russell (chorus) / DJ Daryl
15. Don't Call Me Bitch (Long Mix) feat. Shock G (backing) / Lay Low
  • 1992/05 (~). 
  • Story. Sounds like a Digital Underground mix but it is probably the Lay Law plain demo. It could also be an alternate version aimed for the single/radio version (2Pac already had the t-shirts - cf. MTV interview for "Ghetto Gospel" recording - ; I absolutely want one !), or a new mix made after Troublesome 21 album being shelved (but fact that the song totally disappeared after that led to think that it could have been rejected by Interscope).
  • Samples : 
13. Break 'Em Off Somethin' feat. Dub-C (aka WC), Money B & Deb-E / Big D The Impossible
  • 1991/10-12 (?) or 1992 (?). Released in a promo cassette single (the 7th of July, 1992) for Deb-E forthcoming solo project (never released).  
  • Story. The song was recorded for Deb-E, in order to replace "Funky Freestyles" (included in Deb-E's Drop The Grease EP promo, also unreleased), over a slightly renewed instrumental, consecutively to 2Pac re-using his lyrics from "Funky Freestyles" in "Tha Lunatic" (c. July - Aug. 91), and after the chorus from "Drop The Grease" was re-used in "Brenda's Got A Baby" circa September-October (cf. Tales of a 90's N.I.G.GA.). Considering the verse of Money B "Wicked, wicked, in a Oak Town fashion", that song could also be the evolution of the concept "Oaktown Niggas" which appears in some tracklists in early 92. Dub-C/WC from Low Profile (with DJ Aladdin) / The Maad Circle (with Coolio and Sir Jinx), future Ice Cube's partner in Westside Connection, here replaces Del the Funky Homosapien. WC had recently published his second album Ain't A Damn Thang Changed (the 17th of Sept. 91).
  • Samples : 
16. Trapped '92 (Shock G Remix) / Shock G (?) - SNIPPET / AmarOG1 REMAKE
  • 1992/04 (~). 
  • Story. New recorded vocals with different music. This remix is totally different from the "Trapped (Remix)" which appeared in a Tales of a 90's N.I.G.G.A. tracklist circa April-May of 1991 and was probably just a new mix of the song what became the retail one with Shock G at the chorus.
  • Samples :  
17. Po' Nigga Blues / DJ Daryl
  • 1992/03 (~). Remixed in Loyal To The Game (2004). 
  • Story. It is often mistakenly said to be a reference track for The Govenor. But it appears in some early tracklists of 2Pacalypse II / Troublesome. More probably after the released of his 2nd album 2Pac gave the unused song to his friend who finally used it with the same music in his album Floss Mode in 1995. Later between '95 and '97 (?), Shock G was asked to remix the song (what is known as "Cause I Had To" feat. Numskull at the backing hook) maybe for the Pre-Death Row compilation album then titled R U Still Down / When I Get Free (1992-1996 Lost Tracks), or later for R U Still Down (Remember Me ?) in 1997.
  • Samples : 
18. When I Get Free (Souljah's Outro) / Lay Law
  • 1992/04 (~). Slightly remixed in R U Still Down (1997) as "When I Get Free I".
  • Story. The song was included in most of Troublesome 21 tracklists. An advanced mix of the song would exist with added samples - maybe the reason for being finally dropped from the album. The Bob Marley's sample seems to have just been slowed a bit. 2Pac is rapping with Souljah's voice, it is a sequel to "Soulja's Story" from 2Pacalyspe Now. 2Pac firstly recorded "Revenge of a Souljah" then "When I Get Free" and finally released "Souljah's Revenge" (closer to the first one) in Striclty 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z.. The Souljah voice, as a evil mind gangster avatar of Tupac will be very used in his Thug Life Original Concept projects (cf. Thug Life Original album & Mr Middle Finger, Honor Among Thugz / Exodus). 2Pac will give a final episode to his avatar in his late "Ballad of a Dead Souljah" (cf. All New Heat / Black Gold ; Lil' Homies), but with his normal voice like if he and his avatar finally fused. 2Pac will re-use that title for a whole new song in 1994 (cf. Stay True).
  • Samples : 
19. Pass The Mic (Freestyle at Jamaica House) feat. Richie Rich / Black Watch
  • 1992 (?). 
  • Story. Richie Rich & 2Pac kicking a freestyle in the backstage of a concert. You can hear "Genius of Love" by Tom Tom Club playing in the back (later in 95 sampled by Dave Jam Hall for Mariah Carey's "Fantasy").
  • Samples :
BONUS TRACKS
 
. Walkin' Down The Streets of New York (Freestyle) / -
  • 1991/03-04 (~). Taken from a video of 2Pac in New York for Juice movie (shot in March-April 1991).

. Sweet Black Pussy (Freestyle) / -

  • 1991/03-04 (~).. Taken from a video of 2Pac in New York for Juice movie (shot in March-April 1991).
. Underground Niggaz (Freestyle) / -
  • 1991 (?).
. If My Homie Calls (Turbo R&B Mix) / Big D The Impossible REMIXED by Greg Beasley
  • 1992 (?) (new vocals, new mix). Maybe aimed for a b-side of the eponymous single but 2Pac has there some alternate vocals (saying "it's 92" in the beginning of his 3rd verse). It is possible that the "Turbo Street Mix" was intended for a Greg Beasley Metro Mix compilation and the 2Pac and him made this version for 2Pac.
  • Samples : 

. Holla If Ya Hear Me (First Take) feat. Live Squad / Live Squad

  • 1992/07 (~). Unfinished and shorter mix mix and alternate Majesty's vocals take.
  • Samples : 

. Don't U Trust Me (Male Take) feat. Dave Hollister / Big D The Impossible

  • 1992/01 (~). It is a demo version without the Roniece chorus. Some people could find this version better than the complete one because the full chorus is not sounding very good. But there is something missing in this demo. Maybe it is just this version which was the reference track for A Sista named Mysta's song for The Kidz album.
  • Samples : 

TUPAC AS FEATURED ARTIST :

. Call It What U Want feat. Above The Law & Money B / Above The Law

  • 1991/07-12. Single from Above The Law's Black Mafia Life (1993, Ruthless). The video of the song appeared on the 2nd of february 1992. 2Pac shot out to them in his interlude "Black Starry Night" in 1992, and will plan to invite them to record for One Nation, it will only be close partner Kokane who will record "Fame" with him in August of 96 (cf. One Nation, Volume Two).
. Salsa Con Soulfood feat. Funky Aztecs, TMD & Money B / Accrraaa J. Pavel
  • 1991-1992. Published in Funky Aztecs Chicano Blues (1992, TNT). The Funky Aztecs (Pee-Wee of The Underground Railroad is a member of the group) was signed in the same label 2Pac recorded his two first albums with. When they recorded their second album Day of the Dead (1995), Pee Wee wanted to have 2Pac in it but he was then in prison, so he allowed them to re-use his verse for "Slippin' into Darkness".
