That's because Biggie died. You know dead rappers get better promotion
Plus Bone just became a clusterfukk of unorganized chaos once Eazy died
Pac was a real one for not gettin' mad at Bone for workin' wit Biggie

To be honest with y'all. Comparing bone to big is like comparing designer to future. But I was a pretty big bone fan so I can't hate. But y'all still ain't answer my question

What he's saying is that Bone Thugs stole Biggie's style and ran with it
No?
Okay, what he's saying is that Bigge has been around a lot longer but hasn't gotten a #1 record and Bone THugs did with their first record
no?
What he's saying is that he has a double digit IQ

More than likely, designer is a gimmick. He'll be gone as fast as he came (but I'm rooting for him). I think future will be felt for a longer period of time.

No one was waaaay bigger than Biggie at that point, or Pac.

there were plenty of rappers as big or bigger than Pac & BIG in that 94-96/97 period. Pac didn't become the multi platinum we know today until AEOM, Biggie didn't blow up super crazy until after his death. Wu-Tang as a whole but specifically Method Man were on the same level, Bone Thugs were bigger, Snoop of course was the biggest solo rapper on earth in that time frame, Coolio, Cypress Hill were probably on that level or near it just because of the weed head crossover appeal. people look back now & assume Pac & BIG must have been the only ones on top but there were lots of acts that were on that same level or even bigger at the time

People forget that rap wasn't as mainstream in the 90s as it is now. With people who's favorite genre was hip hop pac and biggie we're as big as anybody. The grunge heads would've known of them due their beef but if you asked them to recite the chorus to their favorite rap song they woulda busted out crossroads, baby got back, gangstas paradise, or fantastic voyage.

I also thought too short was sneak dissing big at the end of the song.
