Wow, this is very interesting. Two found papers written by 2Pac himself hit the Internet today. The information details 2Pac's planned track list for an album supposedly titled "Supreme Euthanasia." The project's title reflects Pac's reoccurring messages of death and departure as euthanasia means "painless death," or in other words, a "mercy killing."
Both papers are dated in the fall of 1995, which is about seven months after he released "Me Against the World." The papers also reveal that he wanted to drop the album in the spring of 1996. It must have been completely scrapped or put on hold because in '96 he put on "All Eyez on Me" in February and didn't start working on "The 7-Day Theory" until August. Nothing was released during the spring.
2Pac also wrote down the featured artists and producers that were suppose to appear on the project. The speculation surrounding 2Pac's interest in working with the Wu-Tang Clan is proven here as Raekwon appears on his first draft and Method Man and RZA appear on the second.
Who knows how much of "Supreme Euthanasia" was actually completed, if any at all? 2Pac was always drawing up ideas and he could have written countless other blueprints for albums just like this one. Some of the joints listed actually appear later on "All Eyez on Me" such as "Only God Can Judge Me" and "Heartz of Men." Maybe "Supreme Euthanasia" was "All Eyez on Me" in the making all along. The second draft does plan for a two disc album. All I know is that if "Supreme Euthanasia" went as displayed here, it wouldn't have been anything less than extraordinary from one of the best poets to walk the face this earth.

3 yowzers:
Seems as if he wanted to originally name it "Euthanasia" but then decided to change it to "Supreme Euthanasia" I also wonder if "When I Get Free" is the same song that appears as "When I Get Free II" on the "R U Still Down" album.
this is clearly a very early draft of what ultimately became the double album "all eyez on me"
i guess so.
