youtube tupac me against the world album

Me Against the World won best rap album at the 1996 Soul Train Music Awards. The album served as one of Shakur's most positively reviewed albums, with many calling it the magnum opus of his career, and is considered one of the greatest and most influential hip hop albums of all-time. This made Shakur the first artist to have an album debut at number one on Billboard 200 while serving time in prison. Me Against the World, released while Shakur was imprisoned, made an immediate impact on the charts, debuting at number one on the Billboard 200. It was his impending prison sentence, troubles with the police and Shakur being poor, which many believe might have contributed to Shakur's artistic reemergence on record, as his material is believed by Steve Huey of Allmusic to have become markedly more 'confessional', 'reflective', and 'soul-baring'. It was released Maon the Interscope Records label.

The project was Tupac’s most positively reviewed album and has been called the magnum opus of his career.Me Against the World is the fourth studio album by American hip hop artist Tupac Shakur. In the year after its release, the album received the Soul Train Music Award for Best Rap Album.

Along with being #1 in the US, the album also ranked #23 in Germany and #20 in Sweden. Debuting at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart, the album has been certified double platinum selling over 3.5 million copies in the United States alone. The realism of this album brought a ridiculous amount of commercial success.

Much less high energy than the tracks from his previous album Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z…, this album showed genuine reflection on his life and career path as an artist along with shining light on some of his personal struggles with paranoia and self-loathing. The subject matter and tone of this project were a lot more serious and introspective than anything he had previously released. This album was nothing like the music that gave him his “thug life” gangster image and street credentials.
