he is in top 20 but not the greates,as it was said only mtv made him that great afther his supose dead,wish probably the rapiest aint.

Anyway rakim is and alwayz be far better them him stop eating shit some of u i bet u dont even know who rakim is.

"I can take a word that's barely heard, flip it, now it's a daily word"

"My name is Rakim Allah, and R & A stands for "Ra"
Switch it around, but still comes out "R" "

Anyone who can come with rhymes like that, please step up..that's pure genius and nothing else.

No wonder his name is Rakim Allah.

i dont see why people like tupac but i have to say that i cant argue with people because i dont know much about him.one thing i know he said he was fighting for his community which is bullshit and the fact he raped girls and set bad moral examples to fellow youngster.he might be a great singer but i doubt he was a great person.i see him as a hypocrite who is real talented.

West side is the best!
Biggie had the flow but for me pac had a point. When i listen his songs i find more point in them. Mostly cause he was more "real"

Anyway calling him a rapist shows you don't know about the trial but yet he had a bad side.

BTW the discussion needs more favourable posts. Whats your favourite song?
For me it's "Only God Can Judge Me" and "I ain't Mad at Cha". First one has so crazy sound in it i can't help it. You got to take your time sometimes and listen what pac say to you. And the other one is for obvius reasons. Who don't see the obvius shall leave this thread.

EDIT: BTW do you know were is that selling list? I remember i found out one day that only about 5 albums have been in billboard top 10 for a year or something(i don't remember the exact character of that list). And the only rap-group/artist there was Bone Thugs N Harmony.

Good post Diavolo, I like "Hitemup", "Troublesome 96", "Never had a friend like me" and "Hail Mary" but there are a LOT of great Pac songs.

"Me and my gilfriend" is pretty hot too, did you know he was talking about his gun in that song and not his girlfriend? `That's gangsta, krazy shit. That's why i love it.

Sorry I can't be of assistance about the album sales. I really don't know about that one but i know "All eyez´on me" was the highest selling rap album ever. Don't know if it still is though.

Actually, 2pac was East side And he did have more of a point than Biggie, probably coz he had it harder growin up. My fav. songs from tupac are alot, but just to name some, "They dont give afcuk about us" life goes on" Hail mary". and speakin about bone thugs and harmony, the made of of the best raps with biggie in the song "notorious thugs". Listen to that song its fckin world class.

Well it's more of a definition thing. The way i see it there really wasn't any east nor west side before the fued with Biggie. I think that noone dares to call him east-side rapper too.(i'm not saying that you did it)

Notorious Thugs is one of the classics
