2pac, new album out later this year

14 years after the death of legendary figure Tupac Shakur, new Death Row President John Payne plans to release the first full-length album of original material from the West Coast rapper since The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory.

In an interview with VIBE.com, Payne stated the album will likely be released around Christmas time. â??This is unreleased 2Pacâ?¦no remastering or remixingâ?¦The songs are from a collection of tracks that were recorded during his Death Row days around All Eyez On Me. I believe that these songs could have been 2Pacâ??s next record if he were still alive.
