Biggie is the best rapper of all time. His rhymes are griddy and street. Tupac was in performing arts school with jada pinkett while biggie was slangin rocks in bed stuy. That shows how thug life pac was. He converted to gangsta while biggie was born one. Just look at the cover of "ready to die" his best album. Check this link out http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0099939/

I've "debated" this one on many different occasions and have come to the following conclusions. Although Tupac was, of course, a great rapper and a very smart man, I do happen to enjoy Biggie slightly more. First off, if you go through your ipod and the over 150 Tupac songs, how many of them are you really feelin? I find that I really like a higher percentage of Biggie for some reason. It is true he wasn't able to make as much music as Pac but this is a big thing to look at. Biggie also had way more sick lines that just made you stop and think..."He really just said that?" To verify this, just go listen to the first lines of his freestyle with Mister Cee that starts, "Biggie Smalls is the wickedest, n!gg@z say I'm p#ssy, I dare ya ta stick ya dick in this, if i was p#ssy i'd be filled wit syphillis, herpes, gonhorea, chlamydia, gettin rid of ya...." The pun he even used there is crazy, saying even if he was p#ssy, he'd still find ways to take you out....now that's sick and thats among many, many others. They also have different styles as well. However, Biggie never really went the political route so you can definitely give Pac the edge in that category. Pac was more versatile and his music could straight influence your thoughts for the rest of the week. He was definitely a smarter guy and could talk about way more ideas and issues than Big could. All in all, I like Biggie more, but there were some limitations to what he did and therefore I must regrettably say that is what gave Pac the slight edge and a slightly better rapper in general.

Not really the "political route" but he mainly just stuck to storytelling, hustlin, and the streets. Tupac, on the other hand, made it a point to talk about the sociological issues of the community (not only the "black" community but in general). This is why I say he showed versatility when it came to the topics he rapped about and why I also think he was a smarter guy when it came down to it. He was just able to do more at the end of the day.

They are both Awesome, Pac is better if ya gotta pick one. Biggie had a better flow, Pac was a better rapper. Pac's been dead for over 10 years, and when you listen to his songs, and what he's saying (I don't mean all of his songs, I mean the introspective ones), it still has relevance today. Holla if ya hear me!
