He was brash before it was cool . He was outspoken . He loved the limelight not so much the materialistic things but the fact he was loved . Just a hard period in time cause time moved so slow back then .He was only blown up for 2 yrs max and signed to death row for under a year but it felt so long. And no he wasn’t a dancer he had a strong work ethic and Shock G took him in . But the game and the need of feeling wanted by so many it destroyed him in the end .

Pac stood for so much. He took on this huge responsibility to say the shit no one could or had the guts to. He really spoke on things that are relevant today with society. And he made an whole album in just a week and you see his music evolved really fast with each album. That is what seperates him from Big and the rest.

[@toepehtkiots]

Huge respect to Joe for his taste in true lyricism. Totally wasn't expect that.

[@toepehtkiots]

@MrTruboy Doesn't matter. The important part is that Joe recognizes him as one of the greatest lyricists ever to grace a microphone.

[@surinder494]

@MrTruboy I loved hearing them discuss the strengths of each rapper, and rather than saying one is better than the other which is something people have done since the beginnng of time, they were both given proper respect for individual talen and skill set. I like to hear these types of discussions, its powerful and sets a good example to be able to discuss, have various opinions but not have the tendency to berate. Love this

Biggie's voice and flow were just unparalleled. I remember someone saying he was the Pavarotti of HipHop. No one could compete with that huge voice. And when you combine it with his flow and lyricism, I mean, I guess 2Pac was a more mature artist. He certainly took himself more seriously as an artist. Biggie wanted to be a mogul. They both died so fucking young.

[@ggggg8853]

The thing with pac it's that he was a complete rapper and his lyrics took time to understand because he puts a lot of information in his songs and he was way ahead of his time so when I listen to his songs again and again sometimes it takes me a couple of years even 20 years after I'm like oh shit now I understand what he meant by that! Genius with life experience.he was the real deal how many 2pac stories I've heard and seen even people who didn't like him had good stories about him.never heard biggie stories or naz even though they are both great rappers.

No other rapper is as iconic in the hip hop world as Tupac. What he accomplished in 25 years of his short existence, most never come close in their entire lives. He was often regarded as the hardest working man in the business and this was consolidated through his constant albums of songs, which are still coming out til this day, while starring in multiple movies, dealing with the media, writing poetry, writing a screenplay, cementing his legacy etc. Tupac knew he wasn't gonna live long, so he worked relentlessly to finish what he started and to leave something for the future. He may not have been the most intricate in rhyme play nor the illest in flow, but when he spoke, it was like a leader leading a revolution. He was magnetic in energy; he had an aura similar to Bob Marley. He had more than just talent. He was born gifted. So many rappers are talented as well but they just don't have it.

I fuck wit Pac. Wild classics. Bat for bar def ain't even in Biggs World, let alone league. Song making and connection level for pac was off the charts. But more because he resonated off the mic more than on it. Take away who Pac was off the mic takes away from his songs. It's all preference though. To act like Bigg doesn't have an amazing gift is goofy. Your probably west coast sick or a Pac groupie. Either way that doesn't make your opinion any more valid.

TruthInTheBooth In my opinion, rap is more about the effect your words make on others, rather than your flow, or the way you sound. Don't get me wrong that is a big part of hip hop, but when you say something that causes a movement / up rise from your community towards the government, that's when you know what you are spitting is fire. There is a reason people to this day think the police took pac out, that's because the government wanted to silence a woke brother, someone who caused them trouble. "I'm not saying I will change the world, but I guarantee you that I will spark the brain that will change the world" who's speaking like that at such a young age??

Gang Starr - Moment of Truth is one of the top 5 greatest rap songs of all time! "Seems that life is just a constant war between good and evil The situation that I'm facin, is mad amazin To think such problems can arise from minor confrontations Now I'm contemplatin in my bedroom pacin Dark clouds over my head, my heart's racin Suicide? nah, I'm not a foolish guy Don't even feel like drinking, or even gettin high Cause all that's gonna do really, is accelerate The anxieties that I wish I could alleviate But wait, I've been through a whole lot of other shit, before So I oughta be able, to withstand some more But I'm sweating though, my eyes are turning red and yo I'm ready to lose my mind but instead I use my mind I put down the knife, and take the bullets out my nine My only crime, was that I'm too damn kind And now some scandalous motherfuckers wanna take what's mine But they can't take the respect, that I've earned in my lifetime" untouchable

[@zinho9169]

RIP Guru. Best producer/rapper duo of all time imo

[@niallwatts789]

One of my go to songs when I'm feeling down ever. "Actions have reactions don't be quick to judge, u may not know the hardships people don't speak of". Legendary

Ok joe, you know about “rewind” Respect

[@50Deuce502]

Fact once you really breakdown Pacs best stories and lyrics Biggie can’t compete with Pacs content. Even while being the better technical rapper.

[@TheRaquan4]

Stinglikeabee502 you crazy . Listen to “Niggas Bleed” that shit play out like a movie with big hoppin in and out of different characters. If we talking story-telling Biggie way better than Pac

[@GodBody-BodyofGod]

I agree Joe. That Nas song is called "rewind" Listen to "I gave you power" too. He pretends to be a gun. 2pac was inspired to write "me and my girlfriend" because of that song.

My first thought when he mentioned rewind. He told the story so well and the beat is cold as fuck

I love 2Pac but sometimes people overrate him. He was very talented but I view him more of an icon than a pure lyricist and highly skilled rapper like ahem...Biggie.
