Me Against the World was really to show people that this is an art to me. Regarding the album, 2Pac said the following: The album was supported by the singles “So Many Tears,” “Temptations,” the title track, and the Grammy nominated hit “Dear Mama,” the dedication to his mother, Afeni Shakur.
The album was also featured on multiple all-time lists, such as The Source’s 100 Best Rap Albums of All-Time and Complex’s 90 Best Albums of the ‘90s. It was nominated for a Grammy in the Best Rap Album category, an award it won at the 1996 Soul Train Awards. The album debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200, making him the first artist to have a #1 album while incarcerated. Many critics feel this album was arguably his best due to the introspection he displays throughout the album. This album was created in 1994, the year he was shot outside Quad Recording Studios in New York City (as discussed on the intro) and sent to prison.
Me Against the World is 2Pac’s third studio album, released on Mathrough Interscope Records.
