My username is MAKAVELI25 (as in 2Pac was my favorite rapper) and this is still a stupid thread



Nas (lyrically) is in a league above Pac

Nas is more lyical than Pac.

Pac was more versatile with his songs though, dude has a classic in pretty much every subject matter

Conscious classic - Changes, Keep your head up

Diss classics - Hit Em Up, Against all odds

Female classics - How do you want it

Club classics - Cali love

And so on and so on :jawalrus:

My murderous lyrics equipped with spirits of the Thugs before me
Pay off the block evade the cops cause I know they comin for me
I been hesitant to reappear, been away for years
Now I'm back my adversaries been reduced to tears
Question my methods to switch up speeds, sure as some bytches bleed
nikkaz'll feel the fire of my mother's corrupted seed
Blast me but they didn't finish, (buck buck buck buck buck)
didn't diminish my powers
so now I'm back to be a motherfukkin menace, they cowards
That's why they tried to set me up
Had bytch-ass nikkaz on my team, so indeed, they wet me up
But I'm back reincarnated, incarcerated
At the time I contemplate the way that God made it
Lace em with lyrics that's legendary, musical mercenary
For money, I'll have these motherfukkers buried (I been)
gettin much mail in jail, nikkaz tellin me to kill it
Knowin when I get out, they gon' feel it
Witness the realest, a whoridah when I put the shyt inside ya
the cry from all your people when they find ya
Just remind ya, my history'll prove I been it
Revenge on them nikkaz that played me,
and all the cowards that was down widdit
Now it's yo' nikka right beside ya
Hopin you listenin, catch you payin attention
to my ambitions as a ridah




That verse and the way he spit that shyt always had me :damn::wow:


That boy was kicking his feet on that one

2pac is my favorite rapper (with Nas a close second), but their styles are completely different. Pac wasn't the type to wow you with his actual rhyme schemes or some clever metaphors, but his vocabulary was just as good as anyone, and his subject matter and relatability made him who he was.

Pac is closer to Chuck D, Ice Cube & Scarface, none of those emcees are lyrical, either.

When people say lyrical, we are talking Rakim, Canibus, Krs-One, Ras Kass.

But lyricism is only one category, so its not the end all be all.

I don't agree with that.

Yea Rakim has some dope lyrics, but how is he more lyrical than Cube or Scarface. They both had super deep, well thought out lyrics. Rakim might have had a better rhyme scheme, but that's about it.

Canibus is a lyricist only because he says a lot of complex words that really don't mean shyt. I think he's the only one in a different league than all the other rappers we mentioned.

KRS, Chuck D, Ra, Cube, Pac, Nas, Big they're just different styles, but all great lyricists.
