2Pac having everyone scared to respond has to be the...

Rapping in code was one of the distinct features of East Coast emcees back then though breh

I remember when I first started getting into South and West Coast music

One of the first things that threw me off was how I was able to follow along exactly to what they were saying and get it on first listen (outside of 40 Water)

I was accustomed to listening closely and rewinding lines/verses/songs to catch those little nuggets

I say all that to say that IMO the difference in approach was more so due to a stylistic difference and not who was more gangsta with their shyt

I feel you but you gotta look at the timeline and ask yourself why that approach wasn't as effective with the audience at that time where the west coast was dominant.



@ this bullshyt.

If you gon diss him, diss him. But Pac comes out and says their name and he's just paranoid and mad at the entire east coast rap scene.

......who the fukk is this clown????.....

I see why his rep is what it is.

I rarely pay attention to that shyt but every now and then it lets you know who you dealing with.

[@OffHalsted]

A lot of them nikkas y'all named took shots at him while he was in prison
Mobb Deep
Chino XL
There was a reason he had so much hostility towards a lot of New York personalities

nikka went the hardest I would've shot chino after that mama line

 

[R=G]

He destroyed Nas, Biggie, Junior Mafia, Puffy, Dabrat, Chino XL, Mobb Deep, Lil Kim...it was a onslaught. Dont get mad and try to revise history.

Pac even said it wasn't about New York because he ran with New York niccas..if u was down with bad boys and the niccas taking money from them then it was you and making fun of him when he was lock up and then it was you too..all them roaches should died from his 44

Pac was originally from NY

 

[NormanConnors]

Chino xL and Jeru were a few eastcoast cats that had no problem calling out names

 

[Eastside Get The Money]

Pac went at all heavyweights while having to fight Dre at the same time. I mean, in two years dissing Big, Mobb, Nas, Fugees, Puff, Jay, he was going after heads

Pac talked trash and died. It's like playing cards and leaving the room while you have the upper hand.
