“Blunt Time” is most likely a recorded 2Pac song, produced by Dr. Dre and most likely featuring Method Man, The Lady of Rage and Roger Troutman. Chances are high, it has the same beat and the same Roger Troutman’s vocals from RBX’s version of the song from the Aftermath compilation. 2Pac most likely recorded his vocals on November 2, 1995 during the same session when he recorded his vocals for “California Love” (and perhaps “Can’t C Me” and “Got My Mind Made Up” as well”).
Probably engineered by Dre’s regular – Keston E. Wright (would be cool to ask him).
According to J-Flexx, he wrote the original song and it was his song with somebody (can’t make out the name) then Dre wanted it and after that RBX wanted it. J-Flexx never heard the 2Pac version.
“Blunt Time” is of the same nature as the songs above – it must’ve been a song, recorded by Rage, Method Man, and Roger Troutman, perhaps even during the same session where Dre recorded Cali Love, since they’re both on the same reel and contain vocals by Roger Troutman. Perhaps same session as “Got My Mind Made Up”, because of Rage and Meth.
So it could be that when Dre offered “California Love” to Tupac, “Blunt Time” came with it. It appeared on 3 known handwritten tracklists and is seen in the exhibit on the “California Love”/”Blunt Time” master reel and a “California Love” session cassette dated 11-2-95, which looks very similar to the cassette Rage posted in her Instagram.
It was scribbled out and removed on a All Eyez on Me DAT according to documents, as well as scribbled out on a handwritten All Eyez on Me tracklist. It later appeared on a mid-December 95 Outlawz tracklist and never reappeared since. Perhaps, Dre wanted the song back, why else would this song so mysteriously disappear from all media.
Rage posted a pic of the “Blunt Time” session tape in her Instagram around 9 years ago. It is rumored that the song has been floating around since then.
