The Best Of 2Pac - Part 2: Life is a compilation of work by the American rapper Tupac Shakur, released posthumously in 2007. It serves as the counterpart to Part 1: Thug and gathers the more reflective and hopeful side of his repertoire. The selection features well-known tracks such as Dear Mama, Keep Ya Head Up, Changes and Do For Love, in which 2Pac foregrounds social themes, family and personal reflection. One of the most influential artists in hip-hop history, Tupac left behind a substantial body of work that has been widely reissued since his death in 1996. This compilation surveys that more melodic, socially conscious part of his music.
