Big to me was superior to Pac when it came to the music. Not saying you @stomachlines but I think people blur his his larger than life persona, the trouble he got into & how he lived/died with the music. If we keep it about just the music I believe Big was the superior emcee in just about every category.

yeah, no, i think you right. all of that definitely plays apart in his legacy
and you already know big is my number #1 favorite mc of all time, any era. bar none, hands down
i'm just speakin' from a seemingly universal perspective when makin' this thread
but in terms of straight up mcin'? biggie all day

I disagree, Big was obviously the superior rapper but like you said, if we keep it about the music pac had a much more creative and artistic level to his craft.

Biggie had alot of witty lyrics but he couldn't create songs like pac could.

True, people in real life usually put Pac at #1 an Big is usually #2 on people list. only on the internet do you see people hating on Big and Pac like that, in real life people seem to respect both as far as Jay goes people in real life don't rank him that high from my experience.

Have to respectfully disagree bro. Pac was creative & had artistic songs but Big told stories/movies fam. He was the Alfred Hitchcock or if you wanna make it nowadays he was the Christopher Nolan of rap. And not just stories but detailed stories that placed you in the scene he created. I don't believe Tupac could do that on his best day

But Big couldn't give you







And that's just a few examples.


I agree that Big was superficially better, but Pac's music had more weight behind it

Yes he could bro & we saw his evolution as an artist from RTD to LAD. His subject matter was changing as he could older & lived life more.
