Tf u mean? Realistically, one of the big reasons as to why people call artists like pac the GOAT is due to the actual time period in and of itself. The music inspired people OF THAT SPECIFIC PERIOD. Yes, some people can enjoy past music and say they like it, but a majority of pac fans, ie the old heads love the dude for all the impact that he made, the souls he touched back in the day. There's probably songs/artists out there, 100s of years ago that was important to the political climate, the social climate of that era, yet I KNOW you ain't about to say that that person(s) is the GOAT.

Primarily, I'm a metalhead, and I have a strong appreciation for hip-hop. DMX came out with his huge singles when I was a kid and when I heard those, that's what I wanted to hear from hip-hop. I've listened to a bunch of artists across the eras, Eric B/Rakim, Pac, Kanye, Kendrick, J-Cole, and I like them all in their own right and they are great, but nothing hits that hard like DMX. His gritty voice triggers my affinity with harsh vocals from metal and his aggressive delivery just hits the right buttons most other hip-hop artists don't for me. It just comes down to taste.

[@eduardmanecuta5350]

@@allaboutthemurzic We don't know that. We assume that based on his skills at the time. Maybe he would have evolved if he was still alive, or maybe he would have not. He said he master all their style. And if you see "Me against the world" rhyme scheme he could clearly do multidilabic rhymes. He could also do fast flows like in Bomb first. But I think the events around his life and his death also push him to sort of a hip hop myth status. If NaS died after Illmatic he would have been considered the GOAT. Yet he lived and dropped also albums that people where disappointed in. But after a time he bounce back with King diseases albums. My point is we don't know for sure the evolution of an artist. Look at Kendrick, Eminem, Kanye or other artist.

Ot doesn't matter if someone is too young to remember Tupac. Look at how damn popular The Beatles, Queen and Bob Marley are with younger people today. Even playing guitar and bass trying to learn their songs. The kids are more than capable than doing research and saying who's the greatest. Plus Tupac never lived long enough to lose his edge or become soft.

[@JD-ny3vz]

You actually can prove good art from bad art depending on what the genre or style is and what's been established as the standard for that style. What you can't prove wrong is what someone's preference or favorite is. So if in boom bap hip hop for example complex lyrics, large vocab, storytelling, and elite flows are the standard if you don't have those skills you are objectively below the standard of this sub genre. Now someone can still like you for whatever reason. But you get what I'm saying.

[@m_niwiarowski19]

i dont agree with this, the whole point of art is to be creative, a artist should be able to use his creativity to expand a genre not stay limited because of standards.

[@JD-ny3vz]

@@m_niwiarowski19 Yea I see what your saying but I still disagree because literally in every genre or style of art there becomes a standard of what makes it said genre or style. It's why we have categories in the first place. An artist can elevate their genre or style or create a new style, genre, or sub genre. The point is not to keep an artist in box. For example boom bap hip hop has certain standards hip hop heads, the founders and the artists themselves establish which is complex lyricism, elite flows, large vocab, coherency things like that, on top of rapping on those boom bap beats. If I come out as a rapper and I wanna go down that boom bap lane but my skillset is not up to par I don't have elite lyrical ability, etc. I'm objectively bad because I cannot meet the standards the people within this field have set forth. Now you can still like my music and think it sounds fire but that does not mean that I am objectively a good rapper. Another example one of my best friends doesn't like Lupe Fiasco's music at all but acknowledges that Lupe is one of the greatest rappers ever.

You can be that young and ACTUALLY love an artist that were doing their thing before ones birth. The posers just make it seem like music lovers like me don’t exist. My favorite song ever is a horse with no name by America that released in 1971 because great music stands the test of time. Pac’s music just touches me more than any one else’s.

Im 31 and Pac was my first experience with Hip-Hop via my much older brother. His passing was how the concept of death was explained to me, because I was that young. But it stuck with me. While he isn't my personal GOAT from a technical standpoint, there's something to be said how nearly 30 years later, his music is still felt. He's in my top 10, and I still love listening to him. Still, I second the overall message of individuality of this video. If music speaks to you, it speaks to you. If it doesn't, that's cool too. On the flipside though, I disagree wholeheartedly with the notion that "you can't like someones music if they weren't alive when you started listening". Maybe there's a 21 year old girl experiencing abuse, and is motivated by "Keep Ya Head Up" by Pac. And thus, he becomes her favorite. Maybe that's the only experience she needs. We can't invalidate that because it doesn't fit our personal criteria. Bottom line, gatekeeping sucks.

Its Prince or Bob Marley.. both artist way before my time BUT THEIR MUSIC IS TIMELESS AS FUCK... thats the point my guy when the music is timeless and you genuinely love it it dont matter how old an artist is. so if a 25 year old loves 2Pac music genuinely then thats great we cant just say that their lying because hes too young.

Biggie brought word play and lyricism of course and dude had swag but I personally think Lil Wayne is up there with them because I’m from Louisiana and so is he. We absolutely love him because he doesn’t mumble rap, he has lyricism, wordplay and he had Jay z questioning himself after Wayne freestyled on his beat 😂. He obliterates other artists beats.

Other than that his lyrics were pretty basic, he had the same boring flow on most tracks, and the same type of production, his delivery was mediocre at best. He doesn’t even compare to other 90s rappers like Snoop, Eazy, Dre let alone any modern rapper

[@asole100]

Being the better rapper has always been about who has the better lyrics not if you like their song better than the other. This was a bad take.

Rupac fans are all from the alphabet community 😂

[@jeremiahwilliams2021]

Tell me you only heard Tupac radio singles...

[@binfrozen]

I’m a Kanye fan and he my 2nd favorite rapper of all time but Eminem is my goat. Although no rapper dead or alive has a better discography & catalogue than Kanye.

[@perryperryprince3242]

I don't think there is a consensus goat in any genre. There are few fields and disciplines that have a clear cut goat.

That's why it was recorded in the first place fool, so people can hear it later!

[@rockjourneys7877]

Music is subjective. I agree with that. But if somebody thinks Lil Pump is better than 2pac he would 100% be wrong. I know you were just making an example but I had to get that off my chest.

[@Turba_1234]

Kendrick and Tupac are SUPER overrated

[@BagoesRamanda]

someone who doesn't know about music criticizes a skilled music maker, which is very funny.

2Pac is the goat and I’m only 15 and I only listen to 2Pac cause his voice is just powerful and the energy he had on the songs he mad and the music he made like Brenda’s Got A Baby and Unconditional Love I cried a lot at those songs and a lot of other heart felt 2Pac songs cause I find a lot of unreleased tracks on KZbin and started bumping them now and 2Pac made me to become a better young black male like to give people respect that they deserve

[@LilRello607]

Wayne is the goat or Jay Z Or eminem those are the only 3 candidates personally Jay from impact, lyricism, and longevity Wayne and Em literally best At Rapping But my favorite rapper ever Lil Durk But i feel like Future makes better music than Wayne (My "Goat") and Durk i like to just go with a mt rushmore Wayne Future Durk but at the same time idk who id give the forth head to probably myself

[@Scotty_Russell_Music]

I liked Ice T, NWA Cube, Dre, Snoop, Da lench Mob, Public Enemy etc. 2pacs posturing and attitude towards music was like a sports player or a jail bully or a gang banger wanting corners. See if you can find that cringe video of him lecturing his producers about how they need to "not spend all night looking for the right hi hat, we gotta get this done, whatever a n**** says first or last on the track that's the title, this is a product we gotta get out". Really awful attitude towards art and it showed in the banal nature of his generic raps and tracks.

[@timmy841212]

Yeah he liked to rush through his songs. That’s why most of his songs felt same-y.

[@KingRushProductions]

You are wrong it's over 20 reasons why you can prove someone wrong when it comes to rap music or art or anything. I can really tell that you around 25 or younger because anyone older than will say other wise. So nothing you saying is real! Bye boy lol Pac is and will always be the GOAT!!

What are the objective ways you can prove one rapper is better than another

[@josephshoulders3542]

Did you even watch the video

[@KingRushProductions]

@@josephshoulders3542 yeah I watched the whole entire video and like I said just what I said in the comments they still stand. People call Pac the Goat for there own reasons.

[@stephencox8723]

Nah fam, hysterical spiritual lyrics Ike the holy quaran. there’s no other mc that was also a poet the way pac was. he also has the best delivery ever seen in hip hop. You can’t get it anywhere else. Also, his unreleased og tracks run deep so he has an insane catalogue. homeboy was just that good.

[@m_niwiarowski19]

Kendrick Lamar has better lyrics and impact on the world then Pac in my opinion. Pac is good, but Kendrick is better

[@stephencox8723]

@@m_niwiarowski19 2pac is at the end of Kendrick’s most critically acclaimed album having a faux conversation. anything Kendrick does is a reflection of Tupac because of how much Tupac has influenced Kendrick. what your saying doesn’t really make much sense.

[@antiarezzo7630]

​@@stephencox8723thats like saying Michel jorden isnt the goat because he took his style of play from the guy at the gym

[@stephencox8723]

@@antiarezzo7630 no it’s like saying Kobe Bryant can’t be the goat because he got all his moves from Michael. and people say that often.

[@antiarezzo7630]

@@stephencox8723 but if Kobe had 40ppg he would be better than Jordan. Kobe not better than MJ not because he took his moves. MJ is just genetically better.bigger hands, more explosive, better endurance etc. If it was the other way around and MJ took kobes play style from Kobe.MJ would still be better

[@fobbyP]

Nobody in hip hop since his death has made an impact on hip hop as much as Tupac. Idc what you say. Who else is the goat? Bum ass Jay-Z? Nas? Biggie? Kendrick Lamar? Nobody in hip hop history has the combination of lyricism and passion that Tupac did. Numbers don’t mean shit. Tupac has been dead since I was 2 years old and his name still lives on. His name will live on just like MJ

Yessir this not yo opinion bro this is facts😂😂

Age isn’t really a factor tbh it’s all about what you grew up listening to I’m 29 years old & I definitely think pac is the Goat 🐐 his words had power unlike any other before or after him. & there indeed is a difference between somebody’s favorite rapper & who they think the goat is that’s a wild take to have
