22 years ago today, 2Pac released his single “California Love” featuring Dr. Dre and Roger Troutman.
After being released from prison in 1995, the single was dubbed as 2Pac’s comeback. It was also his first single as a Death Row Records artist.
To this day, the song remains a classic and is a gangsta ode to the West Coast that both 2Pac and Dre loved.
