The Greatest Rapper of All Time Died on March 9th

2pac = studio gangsta

 

Please.... All Eyez On Me was an amazing album. B.I.G was only a bunch of singles. The rest of the songs on his albums sucked.

You're right, I don't listen to hip hop anymore. The current group of rappers are fucking terrible. In my younger days I listened to The Roots, De La Sol, 2Pac, Snoop before he sucked, Dre, Wu Tang and Method Man on his solo albums, Common, Black Eyed Peas before they added the troll doll, Nas, some DMX, Jay Z, Beastie Boys, and that's just a few off the top of my head. Eminem was pretty good until about his third album when he completely sold out.

 

I hate Big's voice. He has good flow, but just something about his voice bugs the hell out of me.

The only song I liked was the collab he did with Bone Thugs.

2Pac > Nas> a few others > Big for me.

 

NOT. Notorious BIG had great songs on both albums....Ready to Die was legendary. Beats the living shit out of any of Pac's albums.

 

^^ Personal opinion.

A mixtape Biggie collage.

Two thumbs up.

 

Fuck Biggie. He had Tupac killed.

I like Pac a little better than BIG, but they are both dope. Pac is just a better song maker, IMO, who the better rapper is is debatable.

edit - but why were you quoting Canibus in the LL diss?

Lupe Fiasco, B.o.B., A Tribe Called Quest, Jurassic 5, Atmosphere and Eyedeas & Abilities are all good "modern" rap groups/artists, to name a few...

Canibus, Royce da 5'9, Nas, Jay (even though he isn't really good anymore), Eminem (though he isn't all that anymore either), Rakim, Wu Tang, etc...

There are some good rappers out there, it just takes more digging because the mainstream is SUCH SHIT.

 

Tribe Called Quest and J5 are "modern"

Those groups were old school. QTip had a great flow.

When you say B.o.B I think of...

I forgot Outkast on my list!

 

Outkast = Overrated.

 

Maybe their last album when they were still "together" but it was actually two separate albums, but their older stuff was great. They set the tone for all the Southern rap. Those guys were in a whole other world while the East coast/West coast thing was going on. If you think they were overrated, you should stick to Biggie and leave it at that

 

yeah, i was mainly referring to their speakerboxx/the love album or whatever...too commercial for my tastes, trying too hard......too many white people jumping on their dick to seem "down".

southernplayaistic and ATLiens was dope

 

Always hated Outkast, aside from a couple songs.
