ALL EYEZ ON ME
LIFE AFTER DEATH
MAKAVEKLI THE 7 DAYZ THEORY
people still buying them from more than 10 years and still but NAS AND JAY Z are just 2 kids when we comparing them with the kingz 2PAC AND BIIGIE those 2 persons made the rap game over whole glob and NAS AND JAY´Z came to buy millions and everything was great at their time SO I VOTE FOR 2PAC BETTER THAN GIRLZ GIRLZ GIRLZ AND U KNOW WHAT I MEAN
2Pac > All in terms of Emotional power, delivery (cadence and voice)
Nas/Koo Moo > all in terms of lyrics
AZ > All in terms of flow, Jay-Z is good too
Biggie = great lyrics and flow.
Nas was always better then big and jay even if he didnt have their allure and swagger.
2Pac always had a huge impact even though his MC skills were AVERAGE.. weak..
That being said 2pac is still my favorite hiphop artists.. or artists period of all time
Ugh, grammar and spelling weren’t my forte, to my defense I was drunk last night
^LOL, I knew it (j/k)
People, stop complaining about the results. I voted for Illmatic myself.
YOU NEED TO LEARN HOW TO SPELL INSTEAD OF SWINGING ON A RAPPER’S DICK
Kid, how could yall put Jay-Z and Cock-a-fella over Nas and illmatic? I don’t get it. illmatic got cheated.
Where is All Eyez On Me? The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory??? 2PAC RIP
“Me Against the World” over “Paid if full”? “Paid in Full” greatly influenced hip hop lyrically and in beat production, while “Illmatic” brought lyricism back to hip hop. “Reasonable Doubt” and “Me Against the World”, while classics, did not have the impact that “Illmatic” or “Paid in Full” had.
REASONABLE DOUBT or ILLMATIC is the the GREATEST HIP-HOP ALBUM. Its hrad to pick between the 2 because they both have different styles. But I gotta go with Jay-Z’s Reasonable Doubt. But Illmatic is still one of the G.O.A.T.
