RadioOnFire.com - I can't deny I was a little skeptical about the concept behind this street album. How many times have we seen or heard a rapper claim to be the reincarnation of the late great Tupac Shakur? These doubts were soon erased as #NuPAC - I mean Troy Ave has delivered a very solid project.
One of the tracks, "I Ain't Mad Atcha," was released ahead of the album, and on the track, Troy Ave sends shots at Casanova, Taxstone, and Hovain.
Troy rips the songs like a man with a chip on his shoulder. Many tunes center around the New York based rapper suggesting that people changed up on him after his highly publicized arrest. On the catchy "Jail House I'm Home" he says "Thought I was moving smart - now I'm gonna move smarter!"
As expected, there are many Tupac samples, references and remakes but don't get it confused, #NuPac proves Troy Ave is his own man. If you can get pass his controversy, you will be treated to Troy Ave's New York swag and bravado answering social media gossip and real life drama the way it should be done - in the studio!
