Recorded primarily at \u003cstrong\u003eCan-Am Studios in Tarzana, California\u003c\/strong\u003e and mastered at \u003cstrong\u003eBernie Grundman Mastering in Hollywood\u003c\/strong\u003e, the album was made at extraordinary speed during the height of 2Pac's commercial and creative peak — following his release from Clinton Correctional Facility in October 1995 on bail arranged by Death Row CEO Suge Knight, with 2Pac contractually obligated to deliver three albums to the label. Far from producing a diminished or hasty record, the sessions yielded a double album of 27 tracks across nearly two hours of music — the \u003cstrong\u003efirst double album ever released as a solo hip-hop full-length for mass consumption\u003c\/strong\u003e — that became one of the fastest-selling hip-hop records in history. In its first week of release it sold \u003cstrong\u003e566,000 copies in the United States\u003c\/strong\u003e, debuting at \u003cstrong\u003enumber one on the US Billboard 200\u003c\/strong\u003e and the Top R\u0026amp;B\/Hip-Hop Albums chart, eventually being certified \u003cstrong\u003eDiamond (10× Platinum) by the RIAA\u003c\/strong\u003e — making it one of only a handful of rap albums in history to achieve that certification — and selling over \u003cstrong\u003eseven million copies in the United States alone\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album was produced across its 27 tracks by a roster of West Coast producers including \u003cstrong\u003eDJ Quik\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eJohnny \"J\"\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eDr. Dre\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eDJ Bobcat\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eDat Nigga Daz\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eDJ Pooh\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eDeVante Swing\u003c\/strong\u003e, alongside production by 2Pac himself — a breadth of production talent that gives the double album its range without sacrificing its coherence.

Released on 14 March 1995 via Interscope Records, it arrived at one of the most turbulent moments of his life: he was awaiting sentencing on a sexual assault conviction, had survived a shooting in New York in which he was hit five times, and was facing the full weight of the media and the legal system. He recorded the album in a matter of weeks and released it while incarcerated at Rikers Island — becoming the first artist to have a number one album while in prison.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album debuted at \u003cstrong\u003enumber one on the US Billboard 200\u003c\/strong\u003e and went on to achieve \u003cstrong\u003etriple Platinum certification\u003c\/strong\u003e — a commercial achievement that belied the intimacy and vulnerability of its content.
