What makes Pacs win even more impressive is that this is a naS board. When naS' forum got shut down for not payin the bills all those incestuous lowbrow c00ns and cacs found their way over to sohh. Then :hamster: got thrown in the bushes for the coli. This would be the equivilent of Pac losing to naS on a Outlawz message forum.

naS really lost. On a nuetral site naS doesnt get past Ra.

:umad:

Exactly,i see these Nas stans tryna take a moral victory:sas1:....only on the innanets does Nas come within 2 votes....If we get the streets involved its a landslide victory for Pac:pachaha:

Love
Nas lost this?
Disgusting?
I'll never understand this Tupac love.

Let me sum it up for ya :youngsabo:



even the general consensus would include the 3 albums he did between 1994 and 1996 as GOAT candidates - and the only reason Thug Life isn't included in that discussion is because it was critically overlooked for being released as a group album - in actuality compare Illmatic to Thug Life: Volume 1 - song for song, I'll wait :youngsabo: At this point you should be done listening to both albums, now doesn't that put it into perspective as to where these albums rank - Tupac's has an enduring sound while Illmatic sounds like it's from a time and place. Song for song, good luck with the mental gymnastics to uphold your generic status quo "GOAT album". Thug Life is classic, song for song it's essential listening and each song stands on it's own - the songs of Illmatic are more of a package deal where the project is acclaimed as a whole. Just about any song on Thug Life is essential listening and could be placed in the upcoming biopic, none of the songs would be out of place on a collection of his greatest work and the album as a whole lot aged better - once again, despite the
NY-publication-derived status quo sheep opinion you have a hard time comparing these albums favorably - even with the track listings being about the same size - song for song, I implore you to give it a go

With Tupac's catalog you're more likely to have a legitimate argument on what his greatest album is, case closed

from a personal perspective, Me Against the World . . can you name me an album with a personal theme that is better? Anything more introspective?

All Eyez on Me is as ambitious as a project can be. It is a blockbuster magnum-opus album. The album you can comfortably choose if you could only bring one album when you're sent to a deserted island

The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory from a critical perspective is the greatest thing hip-hop has to offer

All 4 of the aforementioned albums surpass anything in Nas's catalog by a significant margin - to keep it real Illmatic is arguably competitive with the Thug Life album - each of the three other albums significantly pass it in stature alone. The Illmatic is a great album but it's status comes from status quo and traditionalism that is derivedfrom bias New York publications

Tupac's work overall largely transcends the genre. His discography is the greatest thing hip-hop has to offer, it is the crowning achievement of our culture and is something that we can point to when discussing the merits of hip-hop songwriting and the respect of our art form

This takes precedence over your perceived "lyricism" . . Songwriting. To not understand this is a terrible detriment to our culture and undermines the realization of our art form as an artistic craft

And to make matters more conclusive, Nas his lived 20 years beyond Tupac and not only is there still a discussion . . but he hasn't come close to surpassing him. Quite simply, there isn't a credible argument that puts Nas over Tupac . . And he had over 20 years to create that separation
