I saw the thread where 50 said Pac not a all time great, so i was curious to see could 50 possibly hold his on against Pac?

Pac was a far better artist than 50 and 50s my guy, I like and respect and ID with 50 Cent more but yeah, facts are facts. 50 is just all money, girls and violence like 95% of the time…whereas you can make entire albums of just Pac’s socially conscious stuff…his tough stuff…his reflective stuff…his empowering stuff, etc… That’s why 50 ain’t even near him on my list personally.

I think Pac probably rapped better too…even at 50s peak he wasn’t ever a spitter like that, it was mostly his charisma/brashness and all that that carried son…and he’s a great song writer (hooks and melodies and all that songy stuff people like to underrate).

Pac by far. And I like 50.

Pac was just too much of an impactful and talented poet and lyricist to be compared to 50. Plus, Pac was also a better technical rapper and had a much stronger mic presence. Discography wise, Pac has a 3-Peat while 50 only has one album deemed a true classic even though you'll find some people who retroactively praise the Massacre.

In a nutshell, the criticisms that the Booth give Pac apply more to to 50 when they claim that Pac was all about rapping about the thug life. 50 largely rapped about the streets and how hard we has while also touching on other derivative topics like clubs, selling drugs, being a "thug with a heart", and his material possessions.

Granted, 50 has a lot deep songs too(more than people give him credit for) but many of them are just surface level whereas Pac has whole songs breaking down society, socially conscious topics, his state of mind, his relationships with with friends/family, his life, etc. on a much deeper level.

It's just apples and oranges. 50 is legendary as an icon and a mixtape king while Pac is far closer to GOAT status and having lyrics and songs that will be studied "until the end of time."(Intentional Pun.)

This is like comparing the 90’s Bulls to a fukking minor league baseball team

If its not Outkast, NOBODY and I repeat NOBODY, is touching Pac. Not Kendrick. Not Drake. Not Cole.

NOBODY.

You okay?

The weird, random comparisons are leading to believe you're having a stroke.
