Jadakiss

Tyga resurrects Tupac Shakur on his new single 'Hit Em Up,' which also features Jadakiss. Produced by in-demand beatmaker DJ Mustard, the piano-driven tune is an original and not a remix of 'Pac's heated diss song of the same name.

The late 1990s were a strange time for hip-hop. Fans may still have been swooning from the almost obligatory success of early albums like Biggie's 'Ready to Die,' but a surge in pop music was changing the momentum for many rap artists.
