after finding out that this is the 20th anniversary of the album i started playing it and i came across the article i posted from mtv.com, "20 life lessons from me against the world"...it might as well be 1 million lessons, this is easily 1 of the most relevant albums in music history, to this day this album motivates me to keep on with my life, my own music and lyrics as well that I've been working on in recent days have been heavily influenced by true artists like 2pac....the way that he pours his heart out on songs like "so many tears", "lord knows", "dear mama", and "me against the world" is something that'll always be felt and respected by the true fans and artists out there....
