Glasses Malone & Charlamagne Debate - Who was the bigger star, while alive. 2pac or Snoop?

[NormanConnors]

And Snoop didn't have the controversy from the murder charges? Null point..Me against the world debuted at #1 and went on to go multiplatinum selling 3 mil copies , one of the only few rap albums to do so that year when going platinum was still a big deal.

Snoop was already top draw before his charges came into play, if anything that delayed his follow up. Instead it ended up dropping with Dre gone and Deathrow becoming

nikka said mediocre

well, when Charlemagne was naming Pac songs and Envy said "they werent bigger than G Thang or Gin and Juice" you have to remember that Envy was a young DJ and was under Clue at the time who was spinning these records so his perspective is more qualified than Charlemagne's recollection. California Love and How Do You Want it were different records....but you cant compare Dear Mama to G Thang, Gin and Juice, or Whats My Name because those were CLUB bangers. nobody was playing Dear Mama in the club much less dancing to it.

I knew this was gonna get the 2pac cult's panties in a bunch....I been telling the late to the party Pac fans basically the same thing since my marine corps days in the 90s....2pac was not the biggest star in rap until after MATW and signing to DR and then being gunned down at his peak...that is what it is

 

[SleezyBigSlim]

Snoop 2nd album The Doggfather was garbage and AEOM had already dropped before that bullshyt came out. This is what solidified Pac as the bigger star. I'm 1996 Pac became a bigger star then Snoop and outsold Snoop new album by far.

 

[PHamm]

Snoop was the bigger rapper in 93/94 but lets not kid ourselves no one was checking for Snoop in 95 and when Pac joined Death Row Pac was by far the bigger star.
Now if we're talkin globally in 2019 that shyt ain't even close and anyone that says otherwise never left his state
Pac is the closest thing to Bob Marley in terms of popularity

Lol at no one was checking for snoop in 95 yall just make up random shyt

Lol at no one was checking for snoop on 95 yall just make up random shyt

Pac in 95-96 >>>>>> Snoop in 95-96.

 

[Cadillac]

Isn't it a known fact Snoops time was 93-94 arguably 95.

And Pac 95-96

 

[PHamm]

Pac in 95-96 >>>>>> Snoop in 95-96.

Pac in 95-96 >>>>>> Snoop in 95-96.

Cali love video dropped late 95. Aeom came out feb 96. Pac was in jail most of 95.

How old are you ?

Who the fukk would argue the fact that Snoop was bigger than Pac at one point. But the same amount of time Snoop was bigger than Pac while he was alive. Pac was bigger than Snoop. Snoop had 93 and 94 on lock. Pac had 95 and ESPECIALLY 96. By the time Pac died. He was the biggest rapper in the country. Not AFTER. BY THE TIME.

Pac was in jail most of 95. But Pac went number 1 and knocked Bruce Springstein out his slot WHILE HE WAS LOCKED UP. Pac was IN JAIL and STILL went multiplat with MATW. This is BEFORE Death Row. Snoop was barely even doing shyt in 95. Pac was bigger in 95-96 and beyond. This is a FACT. So my question is. How the fukk old are u?

 

[@OffHalsted]

ain't nobody shytting on him
yall nikkaz are just being fukking delusional

i mean : are yall really comparing these 2






pac joint was cool, fun, chill

snoop joint was game changing

Both charted & sold the same ... Both have the same effect party wise..

 

[chiefdogg]

a lot of yall in here arguing against the wrong points and obviously didnt watch the video or didnt comprehend it. yall keep saying Pac was bigger in 96. go back and listen to the clip. Glasses said that at no point was Pac bigger than Snoop in 93, 94, or 95. (you can obviously throw in 92). Charlemagne said Pac was bigger once Pac got to Death Row. He cited AEOM and Glasses said "because of Snoop". even Envy said Snoop was the biggest rap star of all time. Glasses said Pac wasnt as big as B.I.G...but thats all you nikkas hear....not catching the rest of the context....BEFORE AOEM.

Pac first single was California Love and that came out at the end of 95 right? that was his first Death Row single right? that was his most successful single right?

so if anything, the only argument here should be who was bigger in 95? because that is the only year that Glasses said Snoop was bigger that would even be debatable. before that was Snoop, after that was Pac. He didnt say Snoop was bigger than Pac in 96 and said that for the 9 months (and posthumously) Pac was bigger.

Facts... Send this to the rafters.

 

[@OffHalsted]

Snoop was bigger but he was supposed to be bigger

nikka had Dr Dre on his teamDre was 1 the biggest rappers at the time..

Snoop had the Dre stimulus package

Gin and Juice inspired mf's to drink that shyt. We really wasnt drinking that shyt back then. If it wasnt Thunderbird and Kool Aid, MD2020, Boone's Farms, Cisco, then we was on that brown, like Crown or Hen Rock. I actually hated Gin, still not that fond of it today and prefer Vodka even for my Martini's. Also, when we was drinking Gin, it was Seagrams or bottom shelf. That song put more mf's up on Tanq.

 

[FeloniousMonk]

its no hate at all
i swear i NEVER EVER EVER heard nikkaz bumping ‘Dear Moma’ in dem streets

See breh. This is why you get called out on your 'deflecting'.

We go from Pac doesnt have any songs in top the 100 of all time over Snoop.

I give receipts..

Now you bring up.. "bu bu bu but cats not bumping it in the streets."




Yeah...you're hating breh, you just dont realize it, as most haters dont.

The world doesnt evolve around what your streets listen to.

It is what it is, my breh.
