"they'll never take me alive / gettin' high wit my Fo-5"... too grimy for a Grammy... so, with that said... "fcuk yo awards like Eddie Murphy's Couch"... you do know that at one point MTV refused to play/air ANYTHING BLACK... award shows & TV programs went to commercial when presenting BLACKs with awards... so yeah, fcuk yo awards like Eddie's Couch.
Easily 2Pac's best song in my opinion. Very powerful, direct and straight to the point. "Maybe if they tried to understand me, What should I do, I had to feed my fu*king family, what else could I do?!".. Right there.. I like how he just comes right in and hits it hard, no chorus or hooks. This remix should be released as it really is the way the song should have been done. Just 2Pac's words, a driving beat and pure emotions. Classic.
Tupac wasnt a evil person he was a smart nigga that gave to the game he was in pain in his life going through all things he experienced R.I.P. Tupac O.G.
ive been a pac fan since since 2002 n now in college we learned about him in english class. just goes to show how great of a poet this man was. long live 2Pacs life
"above the rim" is the name of the movie. great basketball movie. it's a tragedy pac's life was cut short by senseless violence. he was a talent double threat with that budding acting career.
This is my favorite pac song and it should have been on his greatest hits album because this song is really deep and you can here the passion in voice and it really makes you think about life differently
2Pac Wasnt A Gangsta,He Was A Poet To The Urban People And A Hero To The Hood.The Man Was A Genius That Had Left Us Way To Soon.Even Thought I Wasnt Alive To See All His Song When They Were Released,I Miss Him :/
Tearz..Its really hard for me to listen to any Pac song becuz he should still be here...His gift touched the world and few people that walked the same Earth as him have ever impacted people like him..
Dont like much when people rate any kind of art- but almost tempted to agree. My favorite composition by Tupac- by far. And there is much to choose from. Masterpiece. ❤
I got to admit that this is the first track i heard a very long time ago (like 92 or summet) and this track blew me away, the power and feeling 2pac has in his voice was amazing, ever since then i have liked 2pac, 2pac said "only from within can a person truly shine", and this is why 2pac is loved by so many because he was real and raps from the heart.
I'm from Houston, home of Screwed up music. I have this song screwed, I like it a lot. This AM is the first time I heard in not screwed, both sound great. The best always seem to die young, RIP Pac.
I love God and His great love with ALL my heart. I had an experience before momma died when He and an angel and Jesus came and held me. They came to comfort me. And they showed me how much they love us. I was changed. After that I tried listening to my fav 2pac but ... i couldnt. It is about YOUR personal relationship with HIm that is important anyway
My favorite 2pac song. It reminds me when it first came out me and a friend drove from the Bay to Reno to gamble and we played the song over and over and over, I think it was the only song we listened to.
I wish this song was on a CD. I used to play this song on my way to college back in '94. This was my favorite 2pac cut. The only way you can get this song is from the tape version of the soundtrack.
the more i look into 2pac the sadder i get cuz he couldve been such a huge talent with music AND acting:/ this song is my favorite cuz it sounds like he just yells out his emotions on this, im sure hes battling other real MCs up in heaven, R.I.P tupac shakur
i love the sound of tupac's voice when he raps its like he'sstrongly forcing his words out so that his fans can pay more attention to what he's saying.
20 years on and this tune is timeless, better than any of the shit today. 2Pac understood what it was to come from the gutter, still hurts that he is no longer with us..... RIP Bruv (a white englishman)
this vid is the best 1 put together of all the pain "vids" this 1 truly captured his essence thank u very much i'm high off weed n this made me shed some tears wordup
***** It was kinda messed up, because it was available along with another bonus track on the cassette version of the soundtrack but has never been included on the CD version of the soundtrack. SMH
This video is so dope. I'm in tears right now. This is such a beautiful amazing homage/tribute to my nigga Pac. Mannn this video make it all real all over again. That shit hurt bad when 2pac died. My heart will 4eva be sad and broken that he was killed. I Love Tupac! He was a musical Icon, a genius, ahead of our time. He had to learn lessons like we all did, and he should have been given the chance to live and learn.!!!! 😭😭💔💔😭😭😭🕊️🕊️🕊️🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
tupac music will allways remind me of the crazy days rip brother and i will live this life better then everybody thought i would and there is no more pain for i have made it throught the crazy days
Pac is in a grp all by himself, just as he will be till the end of time. end of story. he was so much more than a rapper, when people understand that, then well get somewhere.. RIP Pac
This is on above the rim soundtrack this was good movie people cannot describe a rapper that had anything on Pac or Biggie They were the best rapper that ever lived there will never be any other ones better his words go to the heart cause he was the realest R.I.P Pac
14 years later n ur shit is still touchin ppl my nigga.. no1 can n never will do it better than u did.. u r dearly missed n loved my nigga.. r.i.p. homey..
heaven knows that pain only comes when you have lost someone or something,so feel my pain..PAC come back and teach these raps how to show pain...jmizzal
today is 14 yrs since the legend 2pac been shot rest in peace 2pac we STILL miss you to this day and forever more but you will live on through youre music and your everlasting legacy throughout this world
Pac should've won a Grammy for this song.
YES!!!
Bingo! Now, he'd blow away the competition.
Stupid Grammys don't define legends
"they'll never take me alive / gettin' high wit my Fo-5"... too grimy for a Grammy... so, with that said... "fcuk yo awards like Eddie Murphy's Couch"... you do know that at one point MTV refused to play/air ANYTHING BLACK... award shows & TV programs went to commercial when presenting BLACKs with awards... so yeah, fcuk yo awards like Eddie's Couch.
Real talk 🙏
Pac Should of Won A Grammy for This Song
Easily 2Pac's best song in my opinion. Very powerful, direct and straight to the point. "Maybe if they tried to understand me, What should I do, I had to feed my fu*king family, what else could I do?!".. Right there..

Just 2Pac's words, a driving beat and pure emotions. Classic.
Definitely one of the best

Wowwwwwwww
We can debate if its the best but certainly amazing 👏
I can't go one day without listening to Pac. The only person the relevant to my every day situations.
Cole and Kendrick are the rappers they are because of Pac. Happy birthday man, rest in peace.

now^
when i had above the rim on video tape i used to rewind the opening credits cause of this track haha
Me too I had it on dvd in 04 hehe did the same thing!
Me too
That's superb 👌
I miss the 90s. Care free, no social media no phones
"I couldn't help but notice your pain. My pain? It runs deep,
Share it with me" Best intro ever.
It took Pac 5 years to achieve GOAT status
ive been a pac fan since since 2002 n now in college we learned about him in english class.
just goes to show how great of a poet this man was.
long live 2Pacs life
U still alive?
rest in peace childhood i was 2 years old in 1990
"above the rim" is the name of the movie. great basketball movie. it's a tragedy pac's life was cut short by senseless violence. he was a talent double threat with that budding acting career.
IM STILL LISTEN THIS IN 2012 THIS IS HOME!
One of the best songs.
Best song pac ever made .
this song goes deeper than just the music, it sends shivers down my spine, so much emotion attacthed to this track.......
R.I.P My child hood
This is my favorite pac song and it should have been on his greatest hits album because this song is really deep and you can here the passion in voice and it really makes you think about life differently
2Pac Wasnt A Gangsta,He Was A Poet To The Urban People And A Hero To The Hood.The Man Was A Genius That Had Left Us Way To Soon.Even Thought I Wasnt Alive To See All His Song When They Were Released,I Miss Him :/
Even though Stretch did Pac dirty, He did kick realness on this track. and thats something rappers nowadays are lacking. But Pac forever the G.O.A.T.!
he killed this song.
One of my favorite songs of all time
Tearz..Its really hard for me to listen to any Pac song becuz he should still be here...His gift touched the world and few people that walked the same Earth as him have ever impacted people like him..
one of the few true rappers you'll never die
God is so beautiful. He healed my handicapped brother of a terminal brain tumor. AND He came and held me before mommm died. I saw an angel too.
I'm few of the many kids who like this type of music
Jigga Raye Keep it that way bruh! Real recognize real! Don't go to the darkside (Drake, Lil Wayne, Meek Mill and all that junk)
+Mexculine1 yeah I would never listen to those shity artist they don't know real rap music
+Jigga Raye I feel you bro this some real shit
+Jigga Raye Gotta keep it real you know !
real understand real
When I was fell to sad on myself. was try to listen to that wonderful song!!! Thank you PAC !!

no one will truly understand tupacs brilliance until youve had a truly difficult time in your life. god bless.

One of my favorite TuPac tunes. Above the Rim was sick. Back when rap could be hard and still put a message across. And to jhendrix516... damn right.
Even though youre gone
your music still feeds our minds.
RIP TUPAC.
tupac put so much energy into this song you can hear it on his 2nd verse hes losing his breath tryin to push out every word. RIP TUPAC we miss ya
