biggie was a TERRIBLE lyricist.. absolutely terrible... there are thousands of people who would DESTROY biggie in a battle.. but when it came to producing music he was damn near untouchable. same story w/ Eminem.. hes a great rapper who's made tons of classic songs.. and is in my top 3 fav rappers of all time.. but hes not a punchline rapper at all... thats not his strong point.. i personally admire eminem for his multies and flow.. not cus he spits the dopest bars.. his actual content isnt what blows me away.. what eminem excels in doesnt mean shit in a battle.. its all about punchlines.. eminem would get demolished by great battlers... fact
he didnt spend years and years practicing to be on grindtime did he? no.. he was in the studio makin songs..

Battles back then weren't that famous.
Now, you got Smack dvd, Grindtime etc...
Watch Em's old battles...he Killed them!!!

EVERY great rapper can be beaten.
every great boxer can be KO'd
every great basketball player can get dunked on.

and overall. even if the best battler can beat Em.
that wouldnt matter. because nobody can do music like Em.
energy, flow, lyrics, freestyles.
find somebody that can do all that.
thats talent!


Besides, battling wont get you nowhere.
get you a deal and Known in the streets.
but when they put your ass in the studio...you wont kno what to do!!
