Greatest Hits is a double disc greatest hits album for rapper 2Pac, released by Death Row Records in 1998. The album's nonchronological sequence highlights 2Pac's music; the 21 popular hits, some slightly re-edited for legal reasons, are accompanied by four previously unreleased songs: "God Bless the Dead" (Dedicated to a "Biggie Smalls", thought by many to be about Notorious B.I.G.), "Unconditional Love", "Troublesome '96", and "Changes" which has since become one of Shakur's best known songs.
