Dope thread. I've never heard about Nas' reaction to Big winning before this.
fr s*** is crazy to think about. You just dropped maybe the greatest rap album ever and a year later some fat dude is taking over your city and beating you out for awards crazy
Yall are underestimating the impact of Ready To DIe, before Biggie came into the scene the West Coast was bodying NY nationwide, Ready To Die single handedly put the East Coast back in the map while also delivering lyrically.
The west was really taking over
imagine Big Poppa and Juicy never dropped

Then Pac might’ve never got signed to Death Row. He was still locked up during this time
Need more booing at award shows. Might actually watch them
Would make them a lot more interesting for sure
Didnt expect nas to be this shook over an award show makes sense he lost the plot following this
then again dude was 19
Fr "he was never the same after that" how would Nas' career been moving forward if they would've given him those awards?
s***s crazy
i never said anything in my post about this? literally just shouting out the year??? lmfao what’s ur deal
Ready To Die was and is better than Illmatic tbh
I tend to agree tbh but its a great debate.
Then Pac might’ve never got signed to Death Row. He was still locked up during this time
Pac with Ruthless
Show also shows you how big Snoop was during his prime years. He opened the show, as a Westcoast rapper. And won artist of the year lol
