1996年9月13号的午夜枪响夺走了2Pac(本名Tupac Amaru Shakur)的生命,帮派饶舌乐东西岸乐派的恩怨疑云浮出檯面,但是,2Pac的传奇唱作并未因此成为绝响,反而绽放无远弗届的影响力。发迹於饶舌乐团Digital Underground的2Pac,’92年以处女作『2Pacalypse Now』崭露头角,接著以Top 4白金大碟『Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z.』大放光芒,’93、’94年间却成了进出监狱的常客,’95年空降排行冠军的鉅作『Me Against The World』掀起帮派饶舌巨浪,’96年的『All Eyez On Me』缔创排行榜史上首张空降冠军的hip-hop双CD作品,全美狂销800万张;就在化名Makaveli完成专辑『Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory』录音没多久,年仅25的帮派饶舌奇才竟成枪下亡魂,此张大碟跟’97年的生前遗作『R U Still Down? (Remember Me)』纷纷写下全美400万张的销售;’98年匯整的精选辑依然开出900万张销售红盘,截至2002年,2Pac专辑的全球累积销售已经突破5000万张。"I Get Around"、"Keep Ya Head Up"、"Dear Mama"、"How Do U Want It/California Love"、"Do For Love"都是2Pac的畅销经典单曲,2002年秋季,Toni Braxton与Jay-Z不约而同取样2Pac单曲"Me & My Girlfriend",显见2Pac作品的魔力。

2002年压轴出土的大碟【Better Dayz】是继2001年冠军专辑『Until The End Of Time』后,第2张搜录2 Pac于95年岁末到96年9月过世前,化名为Makaveli时期的双CD遗作;此张最新出土大碟力邀当今横跨节奏蓝调、hip-hop、饶舌乐界的佼佼者--Nas、Trick Daddy、Mya、Tyrese、Ronald 'Mr. Biggs' Isley、DJ Quik、The Outlawz客座配唱20首2Pac遗作,由Ja Rule幕后制作7 Aurelius操刀的首支单曲"Thugz Mansion"率先向饶舌榜Top 10叩关。

Better Dayz is the fourth posthumous studio album by late American rapper Tupac Shakur, the fourth to be released without the artist's creative and is the last so far to be a double-album.

It was released on November 26, 2002, debuting at number 5 on the Billboard 200. This album consists of a collection of previously unreleased material by way of remixed songs from Tupac's "Makaveli" period while signed to Death Row Records, and was produced by Johnny "J", Jazze Pha, Frank Nitty, and E.D.I. of Outlawz. Tracks include "My Block (remix)," "When We Ride on Our Enemies," "Catchin' Feelins" and "Never Call U Bitch Again". It also includes "Military Minds" which features Boot Camp Clik members Buckshot and Smif-n-Wessun (credited as Cocoa Brovaz) which was supposed to be part of a collaborative album between Shakur and BCC titled One Nation but was never officially released due to Shakur's death.

It features 23 unreleased recordings including remixes from the period of 1994-1996, with appearances by Nas, Outlawz, Mýa, Jazze Pha, Ron Isley, and Tyrese, among others. The hit single, "Thugz Mansion," comes in two versions: the Nas acoustic version, on which the music video is based, and a hip hop version featuring Anthony Hamilton. On January 31, 2003, it was certified 2x Platinum in the U.S. The album was also certified 3x Platinum in Canada May 2003. The track "Ghetto Star" has appeared on the soundtrack to the video game 25 To Life.

Better Dayz sold 366,000 copies in its first week on the charts. It has sold 1,765,597 copies in the United States as of 2011.
