  • Kanye and its not even close

    Pac impact on Ye is not to be understated.

    Ya'll talking musically? I'm thinking in terms of forward thinking. Pac was ahead of his time and if he had more time there's no way of knowing what he would have done to impact the culture.

    But Ye for me. Ain't noone posting their contracts online in this era.

  • pacs influence is more overarching but music-wise kanye might be more influential

    probably pac for the reasons mentioned here

    but i don't think that Ye's poor image will really tarnish his influence. He will definitely not be remembered as an icon like Pac but his influence will remain.

    Most of the people who picked pac probably couldn’t name more than 5 pac song and just falling in line with what they think is conventionally acceptable

    It’s Kanye. 2pac is a legend but I swear his influence is overstated.

  • No Tupac = No Ye

    Just a simple chain reaction of events tbh

    I’m not trying to take away from pacs greatness i just feel that a lot of the people picking pac are doing so because they feel like that’s who they are “supposed” to be picking. Majority of people between 18-35 could name way more Kanye songs than pac songs

  • ye been around for 46 years, pac only 26

    let that sizzle then come back to me

    That’s true plus it’s originally Kanye’s site. But I feel like 2Pac has a lot of iconic songs that most rap fans should be able to name.

    there would be no Wayne or Kanye in their current form without 2Pac. I don’t know if Kanye has influenced people in that wide of a range; the artists he influenced are typically of a certain type. That’s also leaving out the Boosies, 50s, Ems etc that Pac influenced

    Pac spoke to every Nigga

    Instinctually you wanna give it to Ye but people don’t get how rap was pretty much remade in PAC’s image and he has no direct predecessor stylistically or aesthetically

    Tribe, Pac, Outkast, Pharrell are all in Kanye’s DNA IMO

    You don't consider Scarface or to a lesser extent Ice Cube to be a predecessor?

  • "Impact" is a nothing buzzword that none of you can define

  • Pac changed American pop culture forever

  • I still say Ye sonically and Pac lyrically, globally, and culturally.
