[@LapronMusic]

The song "Temptations" by 2Pac is, in my opinion, one of the top 5 best 2Pac songs ever. Easy Mo Bee is simply a genius when it comes to beats and production. The song combines hip-hop, R&B, and soul all in one. It truly shows how talented these individuals were and how much they wanted to help people and provide them with music to enjoy...

[@aproducernamed2]

I agree

[@lawrencecarter1939]

I also agree, it has this dope melodic depth to it.

Temptations to me is the Greatest track Mo Bee has EVER Done.

[@wtj83tw]

One of my FAVORITE beat & 2pac song OF ALL TIME! As a producer myself, He is so underrated as a producer more less a human being. Much love!

[@aproducernamed2]

My favorite 2pac song. The beautiful feeling I get from it everytime I hear that song takes me back to the 6th grade. when that album first came out everyone was bumping Temptations and So many tears. Mo Bee killed that track.

First time they played that song on the radio on seattle in a friday night and it was raining- man we were all like what the hell is this? It was amazing. The way the beat just flowed and the way Tupac was spitting the truth. That song is pain, love, & beauty all in one. Its a PERFECT song.

[@MrTommy0326]

A bunch of memories from 1995 when I always played this song. One of my favorite rap songs ever.

[@RodneyD]

as a producer myself going back to the late 1980's... I can to relate to happy accidents where certain samples happen to be in the correct key by luck. But "Temptations" was by far my favorite record on "Me Against The World." I've studied that beat thoroughly. Everything Mo said... I already knew exactly what he done. Pure Genius

[@whateva.man.1993]

Redman - “Watch Yo Nuggets” ft. Erick Sermon was the sample

[@ShaunInce123]

Yeah, the Computer Love sample tends to be overlooked sometimes. You can actually hear the lyrics of Computer Love in that 2Pac song, they just added a filter to it to retrieve the bassline for the song. It's easier to pick up on if you listen to the instrumental versions of Temptations.

Say what y'all want about 2pac, the gatekeepers, Temptations is a masterpiece, me against the world the whole album was genius. The guy has a channel on KZbin had a red 87 malibu with Ds and a system knocking pictures of the wall and all he played was me against the world, sound was amazing. Can you get away at the beginning was earth shattering. That's the way I remember it. Really appreciate it. Temptations go haaay
