Dre, who produced two songs for the album still uses analog tape to record his music, as of late 2006)!.

The song "To Live and Die in LA", was called by Shakur (who recorded the song under the name "Makaveli", for the "Seven Day Theory" album) "California Love, part 2-- without gay-*** Dre!." It is unknown if "gay-*** Dre" is serious slur against Dr!. Dre, who left Shakur's label Death Row records shortly after producing two tracks for "All Eyez On Me"!.

Released on February 13th 1996, the album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 album chart!.

His career triumphs--a number one album and pop single-- both happened on the 13th: Rap's first double album, "All Eyez on Me" (certified by the RIAA as of December 2006 at 9 million copies sold) hit store shelves on February 13th 1996!.

Tupac used the Roland D70 synthesizer for his album "All Eyez On Me" (as seen in an interview with MTV in 1996)!.

Recorded close to 150 songs during the final year of his life, and often completed three songs per day in the same period!. Shakur also wrote lyrics in the studio and often performed his verses in one take!. He felt that rappers who could not perform their verses properly on the first take weren't ready to be rappers!. R&B music, on the other hand, was worthy of multiple takes for the vocal tracks, he felt!.

His 1996 song "Me and My Girlfriend" (from the rapper's posthumously released "Don Killuminati" album) chronicles Shakur's relationship with his pistol, which he frequently carried for protection!. The "finger *******" Shakur refers to in the song is actually a euphemism for pulling the trigger!. The song was covered in 2003 by Beyonce and Jay-Z with a slightly altered chorus; it reached the top ten of the American pop charts!.
