    Elton John didn't really "do" a song with Tupac together but was more added in to the song. "Ghetto Gospel" was released on another Tupac remix type CD over a year ago.

    I couldn't disagree any more. Tupac's hypocrisy is part of his legacy. The struggle of a man with his roots and his circumstances can bring about many different faces. The message was from the heart, the actions were the same as the rest of us; different depending on time, mood, influences...

    As far as not releasing his music any longer, I can come at you from two points: one, despite the fact that you are obviously not a fan, millions of people worldwide are. Two, every posthumous release (there have been 8 official releases and 23 unoffical) has gone at least platinum. Doesn't take much more logic then that.

    As far as this track in particular:

    Ghetto Gospel was originally recorded in late 1991 as a solo track, intended for release on his 1993 album 'Strictly...,' but didn't make the cut. It was released posthumously on 'Loyal to the Game.' It was actually Eminem's idea to include Elton John on the track. Eminem was the executive producer for both Loyal to the Game and the upcoming release.
