Ok, if you do not like rap, fine, this thread isnt for you. But if you can appreciate this music to any extent, I'm interested in your opinion.



Biggie only put out two albums. Most of his lyrics were vain and about bragging. Although he was skilled with creating these lyrics, the content wasn't very deep or especially poetic.



2Pac on the other end was a political and poetic force. Meaning behind most of his lyrics in addition the superior production of his music. All Eyez on Me, easily his greatest album. All this and I'm ignoring his post-death releases because he was not alive to supervise the production.

This debate will fail just like a FWD vs. RWD one. You like what you like, and even if someone could give you factual evidence that Biggie was better, your mind is clearly made up that Pac was better, as you give no examples whatsoever of Biggies rap for comparison. That being said, I prefer BIG. Opinion man. We all have one....

 

2pac had some good stuff, but also had a lot of garbage music that was just thrown out there. I pictured him in the studio just spewing out track after track. Then after he had enough for an album he released it. Didn't matter if it was quality stuff or not.



+1 for Biggie!
