All About U (feat. Nate Dogg, YGD Tha Top Dawg)

2Pac's 'All About U' is a song that delves into the rapper's experiences with women in the context of fame and the hip-hop lifestyle. The track features a chorus by Nate Dogg and verses from other artists, including YGD Tha Top Dawg, Hussein Fatal, and Yaki Kadafi, each contributing their own perspective to the theme. The song's lyrics are a candid reflection on the superficial relationships that often accompany celebrity status, where genuine connections are rare, and opportunism is rampant.

The recurring line 'Every other city we go, every other video, no matter where I go, I see the same ho' suggests a sense of disillusionment with the repetitive and insincere nature of interactions with women in different cities. This line implies that despite the fame and the changing locations, the experiences with these women remain the same, highlighting a lack of depth and authenticity in these encounters. The artists express a cynical view of these relationships, suggesting that these women are more interested in their fame and wealth than in them as individuals.

The song also touches on the artists' internal conflict between their desire for real connections and the lifestyle they lead, which often brings them into contact with people who are attracted to their celebrity status rather than who they are as people. The lyrics 'You probably crooked as the last trick' and 'Fresh out of jail, life's hell for a black celebrity' reflect 2Pac's personal struggles and the challenges of maintaining personal integrity in the face of fame. The song serves as a commentary on the superficial aspects of the music industry and the transient nature of relationships within it.
