2 Pac vs Kanye West (Poll)

[The Ruler 09]

I don't feel Kanye has any classics, 2 very good albums though and a good one.

kanye is a monosyllable rapper that is a fact and also kanye has three debateable classics which his first three albums the rest are garbage imo.

dog I don't care about syllables

That's just cus he died and people feel obliged to love them.

No it's not, people loved those tracks when he was alive. Bar Changes.

I haven't gotten through All Eyez On Me since I was 15 years old bumping Immortal Technique on the daily

 

[The Ruler 09]

Pac might not have 1 classic album unless greatest hits count

Meanwhile Kanye pretty much has 5 classics

How is this even debatable

It's obviously debatable cause the large majority think Pac....

Fair enough, he might have more than 4, I meant at least 4.

You think? I seem to find in my experiences a lot of Pac fans overlook those albums at first then go back later and further appreciate them. When you think they include songs like Keep Ya Head Up, Brenda's Got A Baby, Trapped, Part Time Mutha, Words Of Wisdom, Representin 93, I Get Around, Last Wordz, Papaz Song, 5 Deadly Venomz they are all arguably classic so they far from throwaway either. That's not mentioning Crooked nikka Too, Young Black Male, Holla If You Hear Me, The Streets Are Deathrow, Point The Finga, If My Homies Call, Something Wicked ettc. I don't know what I'd rate them but possibly 4 mics. Not quite classic but very solid to me. I still listen to both regularly. Would definitely take both over Yeezus, Heartbreak, MTDF easily, not sure about the other Kanye albums, liked the first 3 a lot.

Those albums have classic Pac tracks, but IMO they are really lacking production wise. 2Pacalypse Now sounds really dated outside of Brenda's Got a Baby. That's really me biggest gripe with those albums they didn't age well, and I can't call them 4 Mics especially with all the other albums that came out that were better at the same time. You'd really have to have a loose interpretation of classic to call 2Pacalypse Now classic, Pac has three classics his last three.

Pac can outrap Kanye true.

I don't care about technically speaking that has nothing to do with the quality of the music.

Everyone got opinions, I don't think it makes people stupid, but the Kanye fans in this thread have mostly been the stupid ones bar a few who have been reasonable.

I don't really see how any of Pac's albums can be considered classic when the majority of his songs have trash beats

It does have SOMETHING to do with the music as your rappin, not everything but plays a role.
