Duplik8t77:
I don't think any rapper ever dissed tupac in a song and mentioned his name directly, but 2pac mentions your name and everything and everybody wey sabi you. Lol. Pac was just so scary and untouchable in his days. The greatest

most critics say biggie was the better rapper and arguably the greatest of all time

Crazy bitch!

Duplik8t77:
biggie sef na legend. One thing about him was that he excites his listeners with flows and wordplay but tupac was on a whole other level. Tupac's songs and his ideology is far more relatable and inspiring. To me, the closest rapper to tupac is Nas not biggie

i would say DMX

How come this image is so clear from wayback?? Any explanation??

Simple. It wasn't taken in Nigeria, but in the States. They were even more developed technologically back then, than we are today.

Lordofalmajiri:
lyrically I no see wetin b.i.g sing o.

go listen to p diddy ft busta rhymes victory(biggie last song b4 he was shot)
and some track on life after death like, last day ft the lox, what is beef? Niggas bleed, my downfall& you are nobody(till somebody kills you) see some of these hiphop rappers are not ordinary!
am not equating frank white to 2pac, but biggie was a formidable force!

whippersnapper:
Don killuminati

KosiGee:
Doesn’t this kid look like Emmanuela??

Levinas:


Yes. The Tupac vs Biggie debate is an undying one. But I prefer Pac. His music and style is more relatable to me

they say biggie delivers better, flow better

whippersnapper:
lyrically biggie was the best. But what the stood for . Tupac was the streets Messiah

i made a change from a common thief to upclose with robin leach

Doyou2019:


Same here. Why Biggie's music has/had so many fans was a mystery to me as a kid, even till this day.

biggie could rap flawlessly

only God can judge him now, rest on real G

Sarsaproko:
Tupac was good but Biggie was better

Your father!

Levinas:


Biggie sha get flow and rap delivery. But Pac had lyrically depth.

pac had the message. Biggie had the lyrics

neuf:


like I said maybe you would learn something new.

example:

Lyricism is a quality that expresses deep feelings or emotions in an inspired work of art. Lyricism is when art is expressed in a beautiful or imaginative way, or when it has an expressive quality.

From that little definition, how can you now conclude that Biggie was better than a guy that wrote and produced 4 studio albums in one week or posthumously released 6 more studio albums which like you say connects well to the soul. I'm sure you saw deep feelings and emotions up there.

Y'all will learn to mumble rappers and dare disrespect 2Pac. Jeez

So to you it's about the quantity and not quality? In your definition of lyricism, you clearly wrote in a beautiful and quality way and you are comparing Tupac to a guy with multiple flows and one of the best freestylers that ever lived? Are you kidding me? Do you even listen to biggie? Do you understand bars, wordplay.. etc....You even said tupac was a better story teller than Biggie... Are you for real?

No Pac album is better than Ready to Die. Biggie's first album is right up there with Illmatic and Paid in Full for the "greatest rap album ever created..

You might need to join Nairaland rap section to learn one or two things about rap.

2nattie:


Please do not bring ethnicity into this. Tupac ( I stand to be corrected, will forever remain the greatest rap legend of all time). Do not ponder on the words of an uninformed mind

have you listened to rakim allah

Carot:
that was lloyd banks line

Oh, I heard it in one 2pacs songs & taught it was from him, thanks for the correction

neuf:


he made that comparison because if a rose grew through a concrete people would praise its resilience to succeed against all odds.
But if someone "black man" made it despite all the systematic suppression to keep him down, the same people that praise the rose resilience and not its wilted petals would instead ask why is the black man this way and not his resilience to make it against all odds.

discipline?
