Can A Case Be Made That Rick Ross Has A Better Body Of Work Than Biggie?

[charmander]

of course he has a better body of work, biggie barely even has a body of work

 

[Michael Knight]

Port of MIA and Trilla aren't aging well

 

[Big Mel]

Port Of Miami was weak upon delivery.

Trilla was better but still half weak

The next two were good but mad short.


His mixtapes are overrated as fukk.

 

[fundz]

Anybody born pre-90 would probably consider this shock posting at its finest but really it's not that much of a stretch comparing the two anymore and I fukkin love Biggie...

 

[Big Mel]

I suppose if you think a mixtape full of Lex Luger ripoffs surrounding 5 good songs it isn't a stretch.

 

[TAYLONDO SAMSWORTHY]

just curious. im undecided myself. ive been pondering this lately.

way better catalog...

 

[Black Ball]

Of course he does, but that's not saying a whole lot. The dead can't record new albums. Except Pac of course.

 

[That Singer Guy...]

Ross' catalog is definitely over Biggie's but only because he only put out two albums. Biggie dying is the reason he can never go in my top 10. Too many rappers who have put out incredible albums since he died for me to be trying to make a case for his one classic album and alright follow up. His influence is felt but no way can I put his catalog over Ross.

Now as a lyricist, as a ghostwriter, flow wise and everything else...Biggie does all of that better than Ross.

Great well reasoned, non-biased accurate ass post right here. Pos Rep.

 

[Big Mel]

Except that Ready To Die & Life After Death absolutely obliterate all Ross' albums/Mixtapes combined in every statistical category.


and i'm being non biased.

LAD is a very good but not great album. Alot of filler & R&B fukkery on their breh. The tracks that go really go though.

Trackwise Ross has more combined heat just because of sheer amount of material he's been able to release.

 

[KTD2]

This conversation both amuses and disturbs me at the same time.
