All tracks have been digitally remastered. This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. Makaveli is the artist otherwise known as 2Pac, and this album arrives in stores two months after 2Pac was murdered in Las Vegas. Many 2Pac fans believe his lyrics regularly foreshadowed his tragic death, and there is plenty here to keep those conversations going. But the lyrics on THE DON KILLUMINATI: THE 7 DAY THEORY also represent life. The rapper's haunting voice carries songs like "Krazy" and "White Man'z World," on which Makaveli appears almost as a spirit, providing guidance for living in the same world that 2Pac lost his life in. Not surprisingly, the production is top-quality, upholding the standard of earlier 2Pac records. He remains controversial as ever, and with THE DON KILLUMINATI, he may have got in the last word in a hip-hop war that, he proclaims, had nothing to do with the East or the West.
Editorial Reviews ...The tracks are fat with funky menace (the upfront bass in `Life of an Outlaw' smells of Bootsy Collins-meets-Robbie Shakespeare), and the choral-vocal effect in many of the raps has a street-corner, pass-the-bottle charge... Rolling Stone (12/26/1996)
5 out of 5 - ...one of the most important [albums] of the year....perfectly captures the dark tensions arising from the centre of the vicious heat that is the City of Angels... Muzik (01/01/1997)
