1. The Intro of 2Pac: Duets starts out real nice. Introduce the dj's. Dj Cinema and Dj Drama. 2Pac start talking about his early life in New York then to Cali.

2. New York State Of Mind - 2Pac feat. Nas and Jay-Z( Cinema Remix ). 2pac verse here is nice as well as Nas, but it would've been better if they didnt recycle Jay-Z's verse from Biggie's " What You Want ". 8/10

3.Juice - 2Pac feat. Big L and Big Pun( Cinema Remix ). Beat is hot... " Whatever You Want ", lovely. Tupac starts it out real nice. Clips of Juice in here, obviously. Big L's verse is nice and so is Big Pun's. 9/10

4.Interlude - Pac just speaks on father figures here.

5. Nothin' Like The Ol' Skool - 2pac feat. Slick Rick, Rakim & Big Daddy Kane (Cinema remix) Lovely track, leaves you with a feeling damn. Everyone heres spits a nice verse. 9/10

6. What You Do To Me - 2pac feat. The Notorious B.I.G., Fabolous & Mary J. Blige (Cinema remix) Pac starts it off nice then the hook comes in Biggie spits his " Nasty Girl " verse on here. Fab concludes it nicely. The hook lovely all tied down perfectly with the " Anything " beat from 112. 8/10

7. Interlude - Shock G (Speaks On Biggie Vs. Pac) Dude kicks some deep knowledge here.

8. Life Of A Bastard - 2pac feat. Saigon & Treach (Cinema remix) The verses, the beat, and the hook on this one is ridiculous. 10/10. 'Nuff said.

9. I Never Change - 2pac feat. Jadakiss, The Game & Cam'ron (Cinema remix) Another hot knock. Shit is lovely. From the beat, Pac hits it up lovely and Kiss just makes it even better. Cam and Game's verse are recycled, but its still good. 10/10

11. If I Don't Make It Back - 2pac feat. Joe Budden, Jae Millz & Jaheim (Cinema remix) " Nasty Girl " beat Jaheim sings a recylced hook, Buddens and Jae Millz verses are aight, Pac's too. Everybody on the same level for this one. 8/10

12. Interlude - 2pac (Speaks On Bush) You gotta go with Pac on this one, real talk. Like father like son both Bushs fucked up.

13. The Answer - 2pac feat. Beanie Sigel & Cassidy (Cinema remix) The beat is nice especially the sample. Pac's verse is nice. Beanie's is okay, his wordplay could've been better. Cassidy spits a quick verse though. 8/10

14. Dear Mama Part II - 2pac (Cinema remix) Pac kills it here. Its real heartfelt, Pac raps bout him being in jail, while talking to his mama. The beat and hook is Eminem's " When I'm Gone ". 9/10

15. Interlude - 2pac (Speaks On What His Mother Taught Him)

16. Thatz Me - 2pac feat. Young Buck, Tony Gammz & Young Jeezy (Cinema remix) Tony Gammz verse is nice, Buck kills the hook Pac is nice as well, but Jeezy is....Jeezy. 8/10

18. I Can Only Be Me - 2pac feat. Kanye West & Ginuwine (Cinema remix) " Same ' Ol G Beat " Pac still delivers and Kanye spits his verse from Rhymefest " Brand New ". Nice track its not wow but its ncie. 8/10

19 - Games We Play - 2pac feat. Trey Songz & Dr. Dre (Cinema remix) Pac and Dre's verse are descent. Trey sings the hook nothing really fancy. 7/10

20. Black Cotton - 2pac feat. Juvenile & T.I. (Cinema remix) The beat is nice on this one. Real Nice. Pac is hot on this one even Juvenile and T.I. part is a recycled verse from " Bad Habits ". 10/10

21. Interlude - 2pac (Mack Mode)

22. Pretty Brown - 2pac feat. Scarface & Paul Wall (Cinema remix) DJ Cinema is nice at blending especially how Scarface sounds on Juve's " Rodeo ". He's descent on this his flow is better than normal, Pac's verse is nice kinda like " Keep Ya Head Up " and Paul Wall verse from " Girl " concludes it. 8/10

23. Comin' On Strong - 2pac feat. Andre 3000, Snoop Dogg & Ron Isley (Cinema remix ) Summer With Miami beat kills it. Everyones nice. 10/10

Overall 2Pac: Duets is way better than Biggies Duets. It couldn't be anything commercial unfortunately but its hot. Definetely gotta cop it if u dont got it. Real talk its a 9/10
