Still I Rise is a collaboration album by 2Pac and Outlawz. The album excludes some of the original line up of Outlawz, including Hussein Fatal, who had left the group as he had refused to sign with Death Row Records.[6] The album contains all previously unreleased, albeit remixed material. It was released on December 21, 1999 via Interscope Records.

The album features production from 2Pac's close producers Tony Pizarro, Johnny "J" and QDIII, and appearances from Big Syke and Nate Dogg. The album features mostly tracks from Shakur while he was on Death Row Records.

The album debuted at number seven on the US Billboard 200 chart, selling 408,000 in the first week.[7] The album was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).[8]
