I don’t know how this Dmx >>> Pac convo started

[EBK String]

Actually I know that hating nikka Nore started it on Drink Champs and is another example of ridiculous NYC bias. No offense to X but I can’t listen to them wack ass dame grease and swizz casio beats with a nikka barking over them. That does not compare to albums like matw and 7 day theory which are some of the greatest albums of any genre not just hip hop.

 

[2ATMsYouSteppinOrWhat]

X could never be in same stratosphere as pac, Nas jay big or that tier of rappers

he was good dont get me wrong
but he wasnt like that

and if we’re being all the way honest
he’s the one who actually benefitted from
pac & big passing

Delusional NYC fans have always put some rappers on a pedestal. Dmx, jada for starters.

I always trip out when they do quicktime with slime and they ask dmx or pac. How are they even being compared lol. X is not in the same stratosphere as Pac.

X was a good MC, one classic album mixed with a bunch of mediocre 3 mic albums. He doesn’t belong in any conversation

DMX is one of the few NY rappers that get love in every region.... X is way more beloved than Hov down South, Midwest etc.

 

[David_TheMan]

DMX is equal at best if not slightly below Pac to me
They both had the lyrics that touched people because they were honest in their music about their flaws and vulnerable.

I can actually understand the comparisons. DMX had the drug demon and pac had the wanting to fit in and be accepted demon and both their demons killed them

Lots of people love X to this day and he had one of the best runs of all time, early on

Is he Pac? No. But to act like he is just some NYC bum, like Jadakiss level, is absurd

 

[Cladyclad]

Dmx was a better rapper peak for peak

But he was alive to have a significant drop off while Pac music was getting better before he died

Them second and third albums sold and had major singles but let's not pretend they were good albums.

Oh yeah I don't really care for anything beyond IDaHiH but it was a hell of a commercial run, he absolutely dominated the scene. Not many rappers have done it like he did it

No he wasn’t. He never did anything as lyrically complex as pac was on me against the world.

Aint a damn thing complex on that album lol

I love that album btw

 

[ItWasMeThough]

Don’t let that one mod come in here n stop caping cause Pac smashed his mom in 96

 

[Metal Face]

I'd rather listen to DMX

 

[bigde09]

I love X but he was never on Pac’s level and he only has one album that can fukk with MATW AEOM or Makaveli if we are keeping it real.
