loe and behold i creep into this thread and see one of the least intelligent posts of the 06.
here we go...

I truely and honestly doubt that Alanis did a collab with Pac.
she didn't. she has confirmed that she didn't work with him several times.
EriMakaveli said:
Frankly, she is white; what is she doin in Pac's area in Cali ( i doubt if the song were real it would be pre-deathrow), what is she doin near deathrow?
gee, what's she doing in hollywood? your statement doesn't make their meeting up implausable, but rather it makes you look uninformed and a believer of stereotypes. pac was rubbing shoulders with the celebs of his day, actors and musicians alike. do you really have such a distorted view of the man that you think he'd have just stayed in a one bedroom apartment with his boys because he's "keeping it real?" come on, man.

Where would pac find time, between trying to finish unfinished tracks and making new ones at an extreamly fast rate, find the time to hook up such a collab, or was Alanis just in the neibourhood at the right time?
the collaboration was meant to be on the gridlock'd soundtrack, which pac was to be the executive producer and had a lot of creative vision for. he had wanted it initially to be a single cd that blended the death row roster with alternative and unlikely collaborators, and later expressed an interest in making it a double cd that merged the alternative/rock world with gfunk. there are several interviews and gridlock'd press releases to substantiate this.
where would pac find the time to draw up plans of opening a restaurant with alanis? alas, that took place too.
EriMakaveli said:
Also, unless Pac didn't ACTUALLY record the track with her, how would Pac have the patience to wait for her to make up a verse?????
that's just stupid. alanis is a highly intelligent person who likely wouldn't have dumbed herself down with pot, requiring 2pac to ghost-write her lyrics, unlike some other people we all know.
the thoroughness of your idiocy astounds me.

the track where she just talks was cut from Still i rise. reminise was the title.
completely untrue. that tracklist was fan made and fooled a lot of pipedreamers.
fyi, madonna was offscreen watching pac in the mtv special in which he was interviewed by tabitha soren (and used as the bulk of the resurrection narrative audio), so that dates when they were kicking it.
