Lets be real. The only reason why Biggie is in anybodys top 5 is because Pac shytted on him.

I'm listening to Mobb Deep The Infamous right now
Is it as good as Thug Life?

Not my first time listening to it but I decided to listen to it today since it's the last day of my Apple Music trial. It's not on Illmatic level - I noticed on "Trife Life" Prodigy rhymed enemies with Hennessy . . .
I would only compare Thug Life: Volume 1 to an album with around an equal amount of tracks. I have Illmatic over Thug Life: Volume 1 and both of them over Ready to Die - I would also rate The Infamous over Ready to Die . . because let's face it, Ready to Die is about the same thing with a few singles from Puffy. Outside of those singles, Prodigy's rapping is exceptionally better than Biggie's. If it weren't for Puffy and and Biggie was in a position to release an album on his own accord you would've heard a bunch of "Machine Gun Funk" and "Gimme the Loot" and the highest he could aspire to would be a "Shook Ones" . . face it, although being a classic hip-hop track that doesn't have the crossover appeal that "Big Poppa" does and thus his album wouldn't of sold the way it did with Puffy's vision intract
And in that regard . . .it isn't no Me Against the World

I don't know about that.
we have the luxury to be 20 years from there death to see how there music has grown and which rapper's music has stood the test of time.
u cant even compare the 2 at this point anymore, Pac wins by knockout... i never hear no one talk about biggie outside of the coli, even in the coli he is rarely mentioned.
Pac is like Bob Marley... Biggie is just a new york rapper.

breh - no diss
but thats has to be straight
big knew puff way before pac & puff signed big & cmack to uptown records - how da hell could pac sign big to a label that neverless pop'd off
as far as big not liking puff - what proof do u have
u keep saying puff knew - when every body says otherwise
why would puff put himself and his money maker number 1 artist in jeopardy if he knew shyt was gonna go down
shyt makes no sense l, puff too smart for that
whats your beef with lil shawn ???
Bruh what happend i thought u was a BIG fan that shyt was common knowledge...Despite being signed to Puff Big was never happy cause he wasnt feelin the direction Puff was goin
I been hearin that shyt since way back..Big always thought that Puff was corny...and not very talented.
Him and Stretch were also part of the extended Thug Life family.
The nikka that got Pac shot at Quads himself even said that Puff knew...Puff was always a sneaky muthafukka... dude even told Big not to hang around Pac cause he felt that he was a bad influence.
Lol hilarious
Man i got into it with Lil Shawn a few times lol but that shyt is in the past...he's a fukkin cokehead so i wouldnt take anythin he says as gospel

LAD didn't outsell All Eyez on Me by any measurable standard. It was just certified first. Certifications are a paid process. You should thank the Bad Boy administration office for that
Facts All Eyez on Me was certified 9x Platinum in 1998 and Life After Death was certified Diamond in 2000
Now they are both certified Diamond.
Once again you're grasping at straws . . and you have no life
