What was Pac's lyrical masterpiece then? One verse will suffice. All these people claiming Pac was some insane lyricist clearly weren't around in the 90s. When he was considered AVERAGE.
never met a person that thought pac was average. i was born in 79' and lived through the 90's. pac been great lyrically. and i've already posted a song i thought could match it. And i'm not saying those nas songs were wack. He talked like pac couldnt spit like that and i responded.

7dt & AEOM are the albums hailed as classics by prominent hiphop publications when they still had some credibility, the latter being undeniably filled with a lot of filter. MATW is a questionable one.

Pac proudly proclaimed he was sloppy with making music & years down the line the drunk studio sessions making 3 songs a night show. You're in stan territory if you don't say this dude has a shyt load of mediocre music in his catalog..

sytle and delivery happens behind the mic...... :what:

2pac used to be my favorite rapper until i got into Nas' discography

this is based on opinions since nikkaz here are saying "Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z" is a classic album

-Illmatic is arguable the greatest album ever. I own every 2pac album and i do not recommend any of his albums over Illmatic
-Nas is more versatile and more blessed with his pen written skills. You can say Nas can never touch 2pac with "emotional tracks" Pac to me never had Nas' mindset in behind some of the shyt when he shows his feelings. For instance Doo rags, 3rd verse on One Love, Heaven, My Way, and Purple all deep shyt by Nas which had different meanings behind each one. Pac usually just do his Enemies and Hennessy raps like usual..
-Nas is not as redundent overall. I guess that just because Nas is a better lyricist in general.
-If IWW wasn't a classic then i dont see why the hell The 7 Day Theory is one. The production sure isn't better in The Don Killuminati than it was in It Was Written. 2pac couldn't even resist how amazing Nas even when he's at war against him by biting the "I gave you Power" concept.

Hold up...........Is this nikka trying to say MATW is a "maybe" classic??? That's without a doubt his best album and a certified classic. Almost all of his songs were flawless;

If I Die 2Nite
Me Against the World (song)

So Many Tears
Temptations
Dear Mama
Old School
Heavy in the Game


That's 7/14 songs that are either certified classic songs or extremely well done...

*EDIT*

Tupac also made 5 albums while alive (I know 7DT was made after his death but it had his artistic vision) and he made 3 classics/5..............I would say that his discography is far from mediocre.

illmatic is the most overrated album ever. fukk them magazines for crowning that average ass album. nas can rap,been a fan since 94',but he cant touch pac on any style of song. he's had years to prove himself and hasnt done it.

Illmatic is a classic but a lot of people are crowning that shyt like its the best album ever made and it's far from that. People were not even talking that shyt in the 90's.
