Mean, who appear as members of Dramacydal (a group that would later be merged into Outlawz). Me Against the World features the debut appearances of Yaki Kadafi, Kastro and E.D.I. The album's production features a G-funk sound that is more prevalent than in his previous albums. While entrusting production with previous collaborators Shock G and Stretch, Shakur also collaborated with a number of new producers, including Johnny "J", Mike Mosley, Moe Z.M.D., and East Coast producers Easy Mo Bee and Tony Pizarro. The musical production on the album was considered by several music critics to be the best on any of Shakur's albums up to that point in his career. In November, Shakur and two members of his entourage were charged with sexually assaulting a female fan, for which they were found guilty and sentenced to 4.5 years in jail. Later, in October 1993, Shakur was charged with shooting two off-duty police officers in Atlanta, though the charges would eventually be dismissed. In the summer of 1993, Shakur was charged for assaulting director Allen Hughes of the Hughes Brothers while filming Menace II Society and was later sentenced to fifteen days in jail.
2PAC ME AGAINST THE WORLD SERIES
However, the 22-year-old artist had a series of incidents and charges of breaking the law following his breakthrough. In 1993, Tupac Shakur was a success in the hip hop scene, with two gold-certified singles that reached the Top Twenty on the pop charts (" I Get Around", " Keep Ya Head Up"), and a platinum-selling sophomore album that would just peak inside the top twenty-five of the Billboard 200 ( Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z.). It achieved double platinum status, and has sold 3,800,000 copies worldwide as of 2019. The album served as one of Shakur's most positively reviewed albums, with many calling it the magnum opus of his career, and is considered one of the greatest and most influential hip hop albums of all time. This made Shakur the first artist to have an album debut at number one on the Billboard 200 while serving time in prison. Me Against the World, released while Shakur was serving a jail sentence for sexual assault, made an immediate impact on the charts, debuting at number one on the Billboard 200. It was his impending prison sentence, troubles with the police and Shakur being poor which many believe might have contributed to Shakur's artistic re-emergence on record. The album was composed of un-used tracks from the " Thug Life era", and from other studio sessions from early-to-mid 1994. Me Against the World is the third studio album by American rapper Tupac Shakur, released in 1995 on Interscope Records.
