i refuse to conform
You know they got me trapped in this prison of seclusion
Happiness, living on tha streets is a delusion
Even a smooth criminal one day must get caught
Shot up or shot down with tha bullet that he bought
Nine millimeter kickin' thinking about what tha streets do
to me
Cause they never talk peace in tha black community
All we know is violence, do tha job in silence

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

That's your opinion but I disagree. That;s subjective, but can't deny surely that Pac has superior lyrics, content, message etc?

Is hip hop just a euphemism for a new religion
the soul music for the slaves that the youth is missing
this is more than just my road to redemption
Malcolm West had the whole nation standing at attention
as long as I'm in Polo's smilin they think they got me
but they would try to crack me if they ever see a black me
I thought I chose a field where they couldn't sack me
if a nikka aint shootin a jump shot running a track meet
but this pimp is, at the top of mount Olympus
ready for the World's game, this is my Olympics
we make 'em say ho cause the game is so pimpish
choke a southpark writer with a fishstick
I insisted to get up offa this dikk
and these drugs, nikkas cant resist it
remind me of when they tried to have Ali enlisted
if I ever one of the greatest nikka, I must have missed it!

look rhyme king i can bold shyt too

2pac had one of the best beat selections ever from thuglife-makavel
there is simply nothing that kanye ever did better than 2pac, besides making beats, and i think he only made a handful of them anyway.
the comparison is just delusional
how about putting up kanye against lord finesse or godfather don? he still can't hang:lolbron:
his diickriders may have just surpassed nas band of stans via this topic

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.

Cool, I guess that's just an opinion or preference based thing. Cause I can still bump them so many years later. I can understand where your coming from though as I know a lot of Pac fans and true say some prefer his later work, I know quite a few that fukked with the first one though, think they liked the political vibe. I wouldn't say either of those two are classics, my 4 Pac classics I'd say are MATW, AEOM, Thug Life, and 7 Day Theory.

I actually agree with Pac having great production, I have always felt this. I love Pac's beats, absolutely love them, how can anyone not like Picture Me Rollin? lol.

um no

pac's production >>>>>>>> ye's production

I agree with those overall too. Even though Kanye has some exceptional beats, I think Devil In A Dress for instance is an amazing beat, i love that shyt. Kanye to me is a first rate producer, but Pac had some great beats too, I rate Johnny J and them highly.
