many people place wayne, drake, etc over people like 2pac because their music is simply more enjoyable to the ears alot of the time .. let people who let wayne like wayne and people who like pac like pac

who gives a fuck if 2pac is "REAL hip hop" .. the important thing to the majority of music listeners is how much they can enjoy a song while riding to the store in the car .. not how many multies, metaphors, and "deep lyrics" they can pack into a song.

for most people Drake > Pac .. because he pumps out records that meet their needs.

2pac died 15 years ago .. to compare artists NOW to rappers from pacs day is ridiculous .. music changes and evolves like anything else .. pac would be a garbage rapper in todays world .. he doesnt make music that people want to hear.
and i think thats the best part about it all .. if we ONLY enjoyed artists like big.. pac .. pun .. we'd have like 15 albums that are considered "good music" in the world .. music is a fad .. like clothes.. piercings .. tats ... anything .. it changes over time .. thats the beauty of it .. the guys that are good today will suck in 2 years .. it keeps things fresh and orginal .. id fucking kill myself if i had to listen to "all eyes on me" and "juicy" for the rest of my life

I Agree Wid Jason

who gives a fuck about Eminem?

you guys need to dust off your Walkman and pop in that Stillmatic CD, assuming you had it in the first place.

or bump some classic Pac shit...

I understand how Eminem is easier to relate to. People get in slumps and his music revolves around that. But in my opinion, if I'm in a bad place, the last thing I want to do is listen to Eminem tell me about how he is in a bad place too.

I prefer Tupac and Wescoast music, because it goes to my favourite sort of time. You can't really play Eminem when you are relaxing in the sunshine, blunt of weed and ice cold bottles of bud, and that is pretty much everything westcoast music is about. You guys might prefer to be hyped and listening to relatable life problems, but to me I prefer relaxing and letting all the annoying shit go away.

I'm also happy today because after 4 months I finally got my welfare moving, awesoooome.

this whole thread is opinions

yo Eminem could never fuck with NaS, Jay, BIG, Pac and others...

'Rupt....that story about shorty at Finish Line is cool...but damn...people are literally still bumping shit that Pac considered a throw away verse 15 years after he was gone...like its like if you have a word doc with some shit you wrote and didnt fuck with it..and after you die people STILL want to hear that...FIFTEEN YEARS LATER!!

its no contest...BIG, Pac, Jay, and NaS at the bare minimum are nicer than Em overall

Pac featured on Outlawz' Still I Rise on maybe every song. Each verse pretty much a throwaway. I think that album is better than any from Wu, D-12, Onyx, Dipset or any other rap group.

NaS and Eminem is a great debate to me. Emienem edges it lyrically but NaS wins it in creativity and origionality. To me NaS wins in two cats though, 1. Consistancy and 2. Opinion. NaS still drops the same level of raps as he did back in the day. Play someone a lesser known song they havent heard from illmatic and likewise from the untitled album or whatever its called, they will struggle to pick which one is which.

Nas was consistent when he first started, but I think he kinda slowly fell off..Eminem was consistent from slim shady lp till eminem show...then fell of..came back with relapse and recovery.. a revamped, sober, matured version of Eminem..with some pretty dope shit..I mean, I like Nas..and think he's one of the best..but consistency is pretty close..and originality? How was Eminem not more/evenly original? He is like the epitome of what people never wanted a whiteboy to have in the hiphop game..haha think about it. Pretty big shoes to fill with all the shit he went through, but I mean he kept real through all of that..he was pretty creative..but Idk, I agree that Nas was more creative, I like a lot of his concepts..rewind, i gave you power, etc..
