Overview
Late Night is an unreleased recording by 2Pac, widely known among collectors by the unofficial title Til My Dyin' Day. Produced and co-written by Stretch, the song was recorded during the final period of collaboration between 2Pac and Live Squad and remains one of the least documented recordings from that era.
The recording is notable for 2Pac's audible shout of "Live Squad in this motherfucker", directly acknowledging Stretch and the group during the session. Although only 2Pac performs on the circulating version, the production and writing credits confirm Stretch's creative involvement behind the scenes.
Despite never receiving an official release, Late Night has become a highly regarded recording among collectors and represents one of Stretch's final known collaborations with 2Pac before their professional relationship came to an end.
Recording History
Recorded during 1994, Late Night was written by 2Pac and Stretch, with Stretch also producing the track. Although collectors commonly refer to the recording as Til My Dyin' Day, surviving documentation identifies the official title as Late Night.
The circulating recording opens with 2Pac proclaiming "Live Squad in this motherfucker", acknowledging Stretch and the group before delivering the song's only vocal performance. No known versions featuring additional verses by Live Squad members have surfaced, suggesting Stretch's contribution was primarily through writing and production.
For many years the recording circulated almost exclusively under the collector title Til My Dyin' Day, leading to confusion regarding its identity. The confirmation of the original title, Late Night, helps place the recording within Stretch's body of work and provides a more accurate historical record of the collaboration between 2Pac and Live Squad.
