SLEEPYCHIEF 0 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 It has to be Tupac, but I've had friends really argue Biggie. To me Tupac is the MJ of rap. And also to me he is one of the best musical artists ever. Thoughts???? Link to post Share on other sites

ShakeZuma 585 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 everybody thinks Tupac was so great because he was like a martyr for rap. Personally, I don't like his stuff that much. Biggie was much better. Link to post Share on other sites
milestodavid 0 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 as mainstream as it is, what eminem has done for rapping and hip hop is astronomical compared to what others have done. any takers? Link to post Share on other sites
Hobbes 1 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Eminem is far and away my favorite rapper. 2nd is...um...see, I couldn't really say. My favorite rap song growing up was Can't Truss It, but I didn't care much for anything else they did. There are a lot of rap artists that have one or two songs that I like, but I like almost all of Eminem's songs. Link to post Share on other sites
mk 11 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 I think Jay-Z pwns Biggie and Pac. Both those guys get waaaaaay too much credit for martyrdom.Q-Tip is my favorite MC of all time. Link to post Share on other sites

ShakeZuma 585 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 definately agree on Jay-Z. Whenever I say I like him, though, people always make fun of me.or maybe its just because of the way I look. Link to post Share on other sites

Golden 2 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Lyrically, Biggie pwns everyone. Period. His flow will never be duplicated. Link to post Share on other sites
fryer98 30 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Q-Tip is my favorite MC of all time. The Beastie Boys!How about the above in the same song?? Oh wait, they did and it's the best song ever! Also, I think 2Pac > Biggie Link to post Share on other sites

And also to me he is one of the best musical artists ever. Thoughts????If you truly know music and hip hop Pac is unmatched. Songs like Brenda's Got a Baby, Soujua Story, Part Time Mother, Str8 Balling, not to mention other countless ones. Saying Biggies or JayZ is better then Pac is like saying Mcjeager and Steven Tyler are better then JOhn Lennon, or that Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. are better then Sinatra!!

Golden 2 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Seriously, Pac was not that good. For every Pac classic you can name, I can name a Biggie classic that pwns it. Link to post Share on other sites

custom36 4 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 I'm not a biggie fan. I'm not really a tupac fan, but I recognize what he's done for rap. They were all great rappers, no doubt.There are so many great rappers out there that you can't name "the best."But, if you want to argue who's done the most for rap (which is completely different), the answer is far and away Eminem. He brought the white kids into rap in bunches, which brought a lot of money into it. Link to post Share on other sites

turd ferguson 1 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Lyrically speaking, nobody even comes close to Eminem. It's him and everybody else. As far as the greatest of all time, it's close between Biggie and Dre. Link to post Share on other sites
mk 11 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 People who argue on behalf of Pac and Biggie being the 'best' generally aren't real hip hop fans, imo. I'm not talking about Mtv. I can name a zillion MCs who have better deliveries and a zillion who write much, much, much, much better lyrics. Link to post Share on other sites
