it goes to show that this site only cares about artists’ aesthetics and numbers versus the actual substance and content of their music

only on here you’d have a dude genuinely put Thug over Tupac in terms of influence, i guess probably because Thug turns him on or some s***

It’s because this site’s criteria for an artist’s influence is how many (often interchangeable) artists banally mimic them

And I like thug too but god

The artist: “I am inspired by 2pac”

Dumbass on here: “no they aren’t “

yeah that’s why people constantly keep trying to prop up Carti as massively influential because they can directly hear his clones Carti birthed a fairly niche scene and it doesn’t even really extend beyond that

other artists like Drake, Kanye, Wayne, Pac etc. their influence is way more universal and all encompassing, and it extends beyond just sound

Prove you wrong about what? The artist themselves say they’re inspiring by Pac, you don’t know more than the artist
Kanye:

How 2Pac inspired the college dropout: https://hiphopdx.com/news/id.68257/title.kanye-west-2pac-college-dropout-influence

Jay Z:

Entirely ripped from a Pac song

Lil Wayne: https://www.mtv.com/news/2pjizj/lil-wayne-unplugged-tupac

Kendrick Lamar: too many examples but heres

50 Cent: He calls the album a whole new sound for him, and describes it as “more soulful” and “more mature” than his past work. For inspiration, he says he’s listening to a mix he made of some of his favorite artists’ best songs, including 2Pac and the Notorious B.I.G. “I listen to those records to create expectations,” says 50, who turns 35 in July. “It creates a level to me, within myself, of how good the record has to be before I’m ready to launch it.”

Eminem:

I could really go on

Man Pac a legend no doubt and basically the face of hiphop but yall niggas trying to act like he's this universally influential figure on the level of Wayne, Kanye, and Drake is laughable The only thing Pac really influenced niggas to do is buss shots at the cops

The fact that you bringing up a guy who died at 25, the fact that he's in this conversation, the fact that he's got Jada's kid writing letters to him, I think that speaks to his level of impact.
