So it basically all comes back to f*** Puff Daddy?

you nailed it

Pac was an extension of Chuck D whereas Biggie was an extension of Kool G Rap. That's how I feel. They occupied different lanes and served different purposes.

Thread is a nice change talking about the history of hip hop along with the Scarface acknowledgement. I don’t think Face gets enough recognition not only on just this site but in general

And it's really just a rap archetype, those three so happen to be the biggest names as they all bring their own unique spin to it (ie Drake being an r&b/pop version of it)

It doesn't end with any one rapper and we'll continue to see it, trust me there will be a tiktok era gen z artist who fits this archetype, just as Drake was a millennial version of it

other way around, easily

hell nah

biggies flow rhyme schemes and mic presence is unmatched and + he was way more versatile

pac is one dimensional as s***

Pac was one dimensional ?

He can drop gang anthems
To an ode to his mother
To a black power anthem

biggie sings

Sorry man but this a bad take

that’s cool biggie has the better discography tho

idrc tbh y’all pretend to listen to pac

No it's not my g.

MATW / AEOM / 7DT > RTD / LAD

Biggie was def the better rhymer bar for bar than 2pac was and that’s fact my g.

2pac never had a flow like biggie did on notorious thugs ‘nahmean?

All eyez on me has way too much filler to be up there my g

Biggie don't even f***ing sing what're you f***ing talking about? You're giving him props for his singing and then acting like we don't listen to this s***? F*** outta here

You can say Biggie's better than Pac. That's a fair opinion. But for someone to say Pac was one dimensional shows that they don't know the f*** they're talking about

Life After Death both had the same amount of filler. Just a couple songs.

are you f***ing slow?

this is how i know you niggas be pump faking on this hip hop s*** lol, do your research and come back to me when you’re ready to accept Biggie was better than PAC in every single facet, from rapping, from flow, from rhyme scheme, from versatility, from cadence, versatility and discography dumbass

Biggie had more flows than Pac, that’s a fact my g.

Great post and insight OP. This site is in dire need of more content like this

lol
