Not simply because they were technically gifted but it had a lot to do with it,

I appreciate the witty wordplay, double entendres, flow, etc

That's your personal preference. People that have Jay, Nas, Pac, and Biggie as GOATs have them there because of the music far more than skill. If its a question of skill, Pharoahe Monch and a host of others eould be in GOAT convos more often.

nobody says he sucks...he's got a great sound he's just overrated in terms of ability to rap but that doesn't mean he isn't great

He's like Hulk Hogan who isn't known as a great wrestler because he focused more on crowd impact and emotion in the match vs technique
And that's just untrue. Because he had dope lyrics too,many of which are in this thread courtesy of me.

why are y'all concerned with a small minority of depressed weirdos? :why:

pac is the biggest selling rapper of all time after jay and cac. he surpassed everyone's discog including any new school rapper by the age of 25.

he is cemented in the DNA of hip hop.

I'd dead ass sacrifice all these mumble rappers and culture vultures to get all the fallen legends back

Word.

IDGAF about the millennials calling us "old" or whatever, i've felt the same about alot of these "rappers" even when i was 18. Im
not even old now so they can miss me with that shyt.

The rap game is really weird. Candy shyt keeps being accepted tho & this is the result.

ANYTHING for attention, likes & clicks - the era we live in. Literally ANYTHING.

The problem with artists today is a lot of them aren't students of the game anymore. What made the late 90s-2011 so great was they were students of the game. They studied the culture and respected it. For whatever reason there was a disconnect when we hit the 2012 and onward between the last generation and this current one.
