On Suge's podcast Collect Call, Williams revealed that he's working on a posthumous Tupac album.

"What you got going on with some of those unreleases with 'Pac, s**t, you got me excited," the music mogul, who's currently serving a 28-year sentence for manslaughter, said.

"The different people you said you're going to put on there. I don’t want to let the cat out the bag, but it's unbelievable!"

Williams agreed with Suge's assessment, adding: "She is going to mix with him [Tupac] nicely."

The album will have eight features, with "only the best of the best" included, but the comedian was otherwise tight-lipped about what's to come.

As far as Suge is concerned, though, only one produced by Eminem can claim not to have been a flop.
