We need to admit that they should have their own category when it comes to GOAT discussion. The two sacrifices of hip hop beef.

At the end of the day, they both died in their mid 20s. We need to accept that yes, they were great while they were here, but their full potential/possible decline will never be seen so they're out of GOAT discussion but in their own lane as hip hop legends.
Couldn't disagree more, they're both in the GOAT discussion.

PAC had a 4 album run of THUG LIFE, Me against the world, all eyez on me & makavelli
Big dropped a great record in ready to die & a classic LAD.

Both are often imitated but will never be duplicated...

Imo pac has already been surpassed. Time and time again. nikka was a fake, pseudo intellectual. wannabe profit. Period. And his songs honestly didn't go that hard. Plenty of rappers that i would put above pac.

I don't think they'll ever be another rapper as good as BIG. Imo that nikka was fake too. But the way he was able to mix the street lyrics with the commercial beats/production was fire. And if you listen to dudes first two albums they're basically hit, after hit, after hit, after hit. I can listen to both of those albums back to back and not skip a song or interlude. I've been bumping his shyt since 2001 and i'm still not tired of it. Still never hear a song and think "aww this shyts super corny why did i ever bump it". His work is timeless.

Put shyt into perspective.

These dudes were killed in their prime and so therefore we couldn't watch them fall off.

It'd be like if Jay-Z retired for good after TBA or Eminem after TES.

Or Mos Def after... Black on Both Sides :mjlol:

Tupac's catalog has enough depth to prove itself and the whole "Tupac and Big" thing has kind of carried one of these men who has a catalog that doesn't carry it's own weight when it comes to the top 10 discussion, yet he's been marketed into the position
