It achieved double platinum status, and has sold 3,800,000 copies worldwide as of 2019. The album served as one of Shakur's most positively reviewed albums, with many calling it the magnum opus of his career, and is considered one of the greatest and most influential hip hop albums of all time. This made Shakur the first artist to have an album debut at number one on the Billboard 200 while serving time in prison. Me Against the World, released while Shakur was serving a jail sentence for sexual assault, made an immediate impact on the charts, debuting at number one on the Billboard 200.

It was his impending prison sentence, troubles with the police and Shakur being poor which many believe might have contributed to Shakur's artistic re-emergence on record. The album was composed of un-used tracks from the ' Thug Life era', and from other studio sessions from early-to-mid 1994. Me Against the World is the third studio album by American rapper Tupac Shakur, released in 1995 on Interscope Records.
