Death Row Uncut collects videos of 28 tunes that Death Row released during their heyday, including "Dre Day" and "Let Me Ride" by Dr. Dre and Snoop Doggy Dogg, "Gin and Juice," "Who Am I (What's My Name)," and "Murder Was the Case" by Snoop Doggy Dogg, "Natural Born Killers" by Dr. Dre and Ice Cube, and "To Live and Die in L.A.," "Hit 'Em Up," and "Dear Mama" by 2Pac.

Tupac - Live at the House of Blues
himself
No dia 4 de julho de 1996, Tupac Shakur subiu ao palco da House of Blues, na Sunset Strip em Los Angeles, para fazer aquela que seria sua última apresentação gravada. Diferentemente de outros DVDs de Tupac, que priorizam sua tumultuada biografia, Tupac Live At The House Of Blues é simplesmente um retrato do artista em seu ambiente natural: o palco. Neste show, o talento e a energia inegáveis de Tupac brilham em performances de sucessos como 'So Many Tears' e 'Hit'Em Up'. Além do show, este DVD inclui cinco videoclipes em versão integral. Apresentando também Snoop Dogg, Tha Dogg Pound, Nate Dogg, Outlawz e K-Ci & JoJo, Tupac Live At The House Of Blues mantém vivo o legado deste pioneiro do hip-hop para as próximas gerações.
