BIG has better flow, catchier songs, cooler voice

2Pac has a lot more """"meaningful""""" type songs

Tricky

Trip Hop > Hip Hop

Your comparison doesn't make sense

I agree but in the sense that you've made a pretty clear argument that Biggie was obviously better

biggie

2pac is overrated as fuck, he never put out an album that was more than a 7, don't get me wrong he has some classics, a lot of potential and he was an icon for a lot of amazing artists, but he never was able to make an album as good as his contemporaries.
Biggie in the other hand was able to put out a much cohesive and overall better material.

Both are terrible

hopsin

big

Never heard "Life After Death"

It's funny seeing people pick Biggie over 2pac yet will shit on the 2000's bling era Biggie pretty much perfected in the 90's.
At least 2pac has meaningful Songs that aren't being fat and being hardcore.

It appears to be both of them.

Tricky is a cunt

Biggie, no question. Only song I liked from 2pac was California Love.

The bottom line

why do people like 2pac for "meaning" and "storytelling" again when Nas exists?

motherfuck my ENEMIES
im drinking HENNESY
my momma raised me to be a THUG
ghetto life nigga im dealin DRUGS
KATO

Tupac is the most overrated rapper of all time

Because Nas has nicely worded verses and no other strong points whatsoever.

Big L

...

Me Against The World is a 10/10 and better than Ready To Die

Big Pun

He isn't better than Biggie just because he's fatter than Biggie.

wrong

Kill yourself

wrong

Biggie by far.

I like the hardcore shit on Ready to Die a lot more than the glam stuff on Life After Death.

wrong.

Me Against The World is alright, only got its semi cult status because of 2pac name on it. Ready To Die was already a classic when it came out, top 4 90's rap together with Illmatic, Low End Theory and Black on Both Sides.

Biggie changed the rap game, 2pac only released a few good albums.

Proof or didn't happen

Literally a meme, LODPAD is good but not some sort of holy grail

André 3000

Why not both

Nas

Mac Dre

idk mac miller or something

2pac is actually really fuckin boring lol

fucking this

BIGGIE > 2PAC!

famous dex is better than both

lil pump

2Pac's albums were all 8s or 9s (except All Eyez on Me). Both of Biggie's albums were 9s however.
That album had too much filler to be better than Ready to Die

Dead nigger vs dead nigger?
I pick... dead nigger. On the left. East coast was better than west coast.

pic related > ready to die. you fags will listen to whatever east coast critics tell you.

>Age 10: 2pac is best
>Age 15: Biggie is best
>Age 20+: 2pac was the best all the time

2Pac
+Has good ideas behind his music
+Has plenty of really great songs
+Violent has a killer dancehall beat
-At times meh production, songwriting and performance.

Notorious BIG
+Great rapper, performer, and has great producers behind him
+Gangsta rap done right
+/-Typical of gangsta rap most of his lyrics are b-movie tier. Love it or hate it.

My consensus? Biggie is the better rapper and has more consistent song-writing. 2Pac is great at times too but his more "conscious" ideas are let down by a lesser rapper and an inconsistent attitude. Perhaps to good effect, but it can be odd to hear the guy who did Brenda's Got A Baby also do a song called Definition of A Thug Nigga and get himself into beef.

...

pac was more consistent. all the albums he completed in his lifetime are solid, while life after death is 50% garbage

"it can be odd to hear the guy who did Brenda's Got A Baby also do a song called Definition of A Thug Nigga and get himself into beef."
That's what is hard for me to like about him, Biggie feels way more authentic - talking about his texts and his personality.

Biggie was a studio gangster.

Me Against the World has no filler, All Eyez On Me has plenty.

>Biggie was a studio gangster.
kinda. he did at one point live in the projects, but only because his mom kicked him out of the house for being an idiot and dropping out of school

>lil pump

kek

BIG all the way

So was Dre and I still like both.

THEY BOTH SUCK ASS

Reminder that Ice Cube did the whole conscious gangsta rap thing way better than Tupac ever did.

Before i learnt english i thought Biggie was x100 better, now i prefer 2pac. I guess that tell you something

join the next century

Mobb Deep is better than both of them so who cares?
