Big L outraps Gucci in every way possible. Meanwhile Gucci is still learning how to write a bar

L is the man but Gucci is definitely a better, more fully realized rapper.

sorry...I don't wish death on anyone so I did not wanted to get into this.....

1st of all pac was not prophetic...not even remotely close...

I heard rumours I died...Murdered in cold blood dramatized...Pictures of me in my final state, mama cried...Exactly as he wrote it, it happened...Now, you write about your final hours, and we will see if they happen just the way you say it...

2Pac was not superstitious prophet...I am not an idiot...But dude had great insight into his own life, and that's because he was always honest with himself...Part of it is also self-fulfilled prophecy of poor judgement exercised by a very young man...But the insight was there, and he had the gift of being able to express it in a way that connected with a big audience...


Pac did not do what he wanted...dude was heavily controlled by death row and treated like a slave making 10000000 songs a day...

Regardless, that production left his fans with a lot of great music...And that work ethic was the predecessor to the mixtape culture we are witnessing today...That was 2Pac's influence...

if biggie was alive 1000 black men from brooklyn would probably be on his payroll..working for undeas....

Biggie did his thing, and he could have done it better if he was signed with Death Row...Why? The environment 2Pac created was an assembly line...Whoever had the beats, was brought into the studio, and 2Pac had the leadership to direct everybody else...Biggie wasn't a shiny suit guy, he was a "dead wrong" type of rapper, that's the stuff Biggie was a genius at doing, the dark ironic and inevitably comical rap style that no else has been able to do...But Puffy pushed him in a stupid direction...

If pac was alive he would get blackballed...just like suge.....
big l died far too soon...but damn dude was a legend...

2Pac was a force...Nothing could have black balled him...Especially in this internet era...2Pac would be going platinum independently...You need to understand that I was in South Africa when 2Pac was doing his thing...The black and colored kids were mesmerised by 2Pac and Snoop...You COULDN'T go in any black or colored neighbourhood and not hear either 2Pac or Snoop...After 2Pac died, we were listening to the Makaveli Bootlegs...Troublesome 96, Smile, All out and all those songs, I heard them first in the black and colored neighborhoods..

The streets of South Africa where NOT listen to Jay Z, Nas, Biggie, Outkast, Big L and etc...It was 2Pac and Snoop...In 97, the Wu Tang Clan's influence started spreading a lot more...

Then Mase came along, but it was not a cult following...Ready To Die was NOT relevant in South Africa...In the time was there (93 to 99)...2Pac was the main man up to even 98 and 99...

After I left South Africa (99), Jay Z came through and filled the void 2Pac, Snoop and Deathrow had left...

This has been my experience...

This is not a 2Pac vs Biggie thing for me...Because I never really knew Biggie's music...I had parts of Ready To Die on cassette, and I loved it, but when I heard Life After Death...I just knew Biggie was not that dude for me...I was wanting more Ready To Die...Life After Death was TERRIBLE...It's not a bad album, but I feel the same way about it as I feel about GRODT and Finally Rich...They did give me what I wanted...

pac is a legend...and I dont wish anything bad on him....But to me...I think his career has allot similarities 2 50....well pac was far more talented..but image wise...I think 50 was a force in s-africa...well he was in europe....and now he is a nobody...why?? because he blackballed himself...

and you better believe this...in any case...in every way...you need your network....

and if youre honest..

his relationship with snoop
his relationship with dre
behind the scenes his relationship with suge
his relationship with relevant east coast rappers
etc
etc
etc

at the end of the day...his rage would have ended allot of things

ahahahahahahaha....at people naming 2Pac just to insight responses...

The reality is all you have to do is Youtube a 2Pac song and read all the comments of the millions of fans who miss his contribution...

I DON'T miss ANY rapper not named 2PAC...

Biggie, Big Pun, Big L and whoever who have never stopped hip hop from becoming the train wreck that it is today...Only 2Pac had the success, power and charisma to maintain a balance of ignorant, conscious, club, and whatever hip hop in the mainstream...

If Biggie was alive, Hip Hop was still going to end up in the laffy taffy era, because Biggie was allowing Puff to take him down that shiny suit lane, and that led to all kinds of clownish shenanigans...

Big L died irrelevant...Only niche cult following know about him...

Big Pun didn't have the reach and social power to change anything...He was just going to be another "lyricst" do it, until the beef with Fat Joe..

2Pac was so prophetic when he rapped "if it wasn't for [him] n+ggas will only be rapping for b+tches"...
:rudy: because rappers before tupac were only rapping for bytches huh?
Tupac is one of the rappers who popularized ''make music for the bytches, whatever the bytches listen to nikkas will too''
He's as responsible as anybody for the commercialization of hiphop, the demise of lyricism, rise of materialism, marketing gimmicks and much more

Eazy-E : Really though, the only rapper in the world that got away with having ghost writers and not being called out on it, if he was alive today, people would dismiss him as a has been and in the same lane as most 80's rappers are as far as relevancy

Soulja Slim: Wtf did he do that was so important in hip hop?? :rudy:

Freaky Tah: Don't think anyone's even heard of this dude or if so, don't care for him :camby:

Slim Dunkin: Who? :scusthov:

Big Hawk: Never really cared for him :heh:
Don't ever disrespect Big Hawk like that again
