awkward eye Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I'll be honest I didn't listen to Tupac until a few years ago...I was always a Biggie fan and I sided with him in the whole east vs west beef thing back in the 90's. And if you asked me who was better I would give you a biased ignorant answer and say Biggie. After listening to Pac over the last few years though, I'd definitely give him the nod over Big. He's just a better rapper in my opinion, I missed out when he was doing his thing and had to play catch up...In a way that was kind of cool, because all that music I missed out on was new to me and I had a lot to choose from. This is my shit right here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bo_deg_as Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 nope, im saying 2pac was passionate about saving his people. while biggie was passionate about selling crack to his people. lyrically, biggie was dope. but overall pac was better.....including songs that meant something (dear mama, changes, keep ya head up, etc.), poetry, compassion for his community etc. turth! biggie was sick with it too. but yall hating on 2pac that man was sick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maskface Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 standard BIG lyrics Slaughter, electrical tape around your daughter Old school new school need to learn though I burn baby burn like Disco Inferno Burn slow like blunts with ya-yo Peel more skins than Idaho potato Niggaz know, the lyrics molestin is takin place Fuckin with B.I.G. it ain't safe standard pac lyrics drinking hennesy in the cemetary with my enemies high off weed, stunted my vocabulary ..but for real they were two totally different styles. Lyrical technique BIG comes out on top, came with multis etc etc, pacs style was simpler but with feeling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaCosaNostraa Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 tupac - drunk freestyle : and tupac - so many tears i hate how everyone always compares 'pac and big but i do think pac had more soul... and if you read about his views and morals a lot of his music carries more meaning. and like someone else said, for every "shoot em up" song, he has a "brenda's got a baby" and "dear mama" etc. even if you dont like dude, you gotta respect his work ethic. he put out more music in a shorter period of time than almost any other artist (excluding lil wayne whos name shouldnt even be put in the same sentence as pac's)...a lot of it did sound similar, but what do you expect?

TheoHuxtable.. Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Pac's stuff was more deeper, darker, and more meaningful. Biggie was a great lyricist/linguist with great wordplay, and rapped about parties and silly shit. Not saying one was better than the other, just different.

CALIgula Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 ^co-signed 110% like i said before, you can't really compare the two...its relative to where youre from. i remember watching a video on youtube a long time ago, where a bunch of west coast rappers (including snoop and pac) were on stage in l.a. rockin the mic and the crowd was hyped...then pac let biggie rock the mic, and the style didnt really go with the vibe of the people and the venue, even though biggie was kickin some ill shit. imma try to go find that video.

CALIgula Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 and heres that video.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wiytiBDOflw after he kicked his verse, nobody was really cheering...cause nobody was brought up on that type of style so it was hard for them to feel it....like i said..its relative to where youre from.

SwampFightOner Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 If I wanted rap with a "meaning" I'd listen to Immortal Technique's corny ass But whatever, clearly we'll never agree on this...East Coast fo' life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheoHuxtable.. Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I think it's just coastal bias on your part. I bet if Tupac repped the East and had the exact same style I'd bet you'd say he's dope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're some Jersey dudes who are keeping that east coast flava poppin' . It's some west coast dudes, southern dudes.. It's the epitome of what I represent. I got Big Syke from Thug Life ... We just did the video for 'Amerikka's Most Wanted' which is the classic dis video. We got 'Piggy' and 'Buffy'... I started reading some 'pac interview and he was saying some other ass shit that i've never heard of We're about to start Death Row East with Eric B and all the OG nigguhs out there. We got Big Daddy Kane.. Christopher Williams..we're trying to get Bobby Brown. We're trying to get the East coast Death Row to be like the West Coast Death Row and make it major. We're not doing that until we get this business settled.. Even while we're doing this we're trying to get Wu-Tang.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
