My dude Nay stay holding it down when it comes to the arguments for BIG

^^dont see how u can say that when it hasnt been a rapper to come along yet and dupilcate what BIG did...whether it be his storytellin or crafting a double disc album perfectly...which both other members of the top 5 that are still kickin failed to do, Jay & NaS

What song did he use a different flow on??

 

[harlem on the rise]

So you say Pac is the GOAT... Someone says BIG is better by stating FACTS to rebuttal some of the myths about the 2 and THEY are the Stan??

OK...

Using billboard hits in a greatest rap artist of all time debate is quite possibly one of the silliest things one can do. BIG is nice. Top 3 if you just count wordplay and flow. But when it comes down to it, Pac made classic material. There's a reason why his music is taught in college courses. What will remembered in 50 years? Changes, Brenda has a Baby, White Mans World, Dear Mama, so many tears or juicy, hypnotize, n'z bleed, warning, etc??? 2pac was the John Lennon of hip hop. He's global, big is national

So bringing up Billboards in a music conversations is silly...

But bringing up college courses isn't??...

Where in the world are they intuned with Pac and NOT BIG??...

How is using billboard any different than you using the "his music is taught in college courses" argument?

And how silly is "What will be remembered in 50 years"?  Like BIG's music is gonna stop being relevant or something?  As long as rap music is relevant and March 9th is on the calendar, BIG won't be forgotten for a long time.

The list of songs you put can honestly be argued by either side so I hope that wasn't you overwhelming us with your reasons why Pac is better.

Crazy how this argument still is relevant. It boils down to opinion when it comes to this stuff. Pac & BIG were on different levels. Big was a rapper just starting to see the light. Pac used rap for a higher purpose.

@ the college courses argument. Then trying to use that to support Pac being remembered longer or by more ppl 50 years from now.

How is Biggie not global?

It's easy to see how some may thing BIG is overrated. They grew up listening to his churrin who have mimicked his style. You have to compare him and other rappers from back in the day to they're peers. And BIG was leaps and bounds ahead of most of them.
