Notorious BIG > Everyone Else.

It started with two turn tables and a mic
Lightning strike, electricity
MC rip rhymes DJ cut the wax viciously
The combo, maliciously brought, ingenious and precise
Mad nice, soon to be subject to mad heists
Niggas talkin bout they bought mad ice, livin the mad sheist
In the battle of art versus trends
Poetry ends when money contends the recipe blends and becomes diluted
Polluted in fact, but check whos been recruited
Intact with rhymes for your mind
Everydays a struggle 'cause society frames you
But raise your head and walk with pride because i came to...

im glad i got some support here down the stretch. in the beginning i thought this was gonna turn into a flame war where i get the worst of it.

I just think as a whole biggie had the best of both words (freestyle/rhyming as well as songwriting...these days its hard to find both).

dont get me wrong though. i got nothing but love for the likes of 2pac, big L, big daddy kane,etc. i just think as a whole biggie had the most potential.

i never get tired of hearing his voice over a track. its pure genius when you hear it.

Biggie is classic. Can't say he's the best cuz everyone has their own way. 2Pac is the best and biggie is the best. In my opinion the pre-Relapse Marshall Mathers is equally talented

I wouldn't even have Tupac in my top 10. Biggie maybe

Music is all opinion. I can definitely see why people have Biggie or Pac as their #1 but they are just aight to me personally

IMO Guru slaughters both of them lyrically :blsmoke:

Guru spoke the truth, Biggie lied about selling crack and Pac pretended to be a thug. Textbook definition of "studio gangsters." Don't get me wrong, I love em both but they were posers

Edit: You got any suggestions of some good Philly hip hop. All I know that's out of Philly is the Roots, and I fucking love them. But I know that's not even close to the underground. Enlighten me preez!

Nas is a fucking genius, no argument there.

2pac wasn't a gangster until he became famous. Then he decided that he should run his mouth. He went to private elementary school and when he moved out west he lived in Marin. Definitely a studio gangster, what made him different though was that he admitted he was a studio gangster and showed loved for the "niggas that laced his boots." Tupac's mom was a crackhead for a bit though, so he had that goin for him. Biggie said he sold crack, don't know how true that bullshit is.

Guru spits straight slaughter when he hits the mic he is my favorite New York style rapper, but he's also a different type of rapper. He's "real," for a lack of a better word. Like Lupe was in Food and Liquor, and Eminem was before he got famous. Even though Eminem blows now, he could probably still rip apart any rapper in a battle.

If you're all about that gangster hype then Biggy could hit your top ten... maybe, I dunno, he kind of seems whack to me. Spittin about shit he never did and what not. Casual, ODB, Phesto, Tajai... really all of Hiero and Wutang > Biggy imo. Nickatina while he was still Dre Dog was ill as fuck too. And of course Brotha Lynch, that fool fuckin eats people! But the most gangsta rape your mom type shit I've ever heard was Mac Dre when he was angry:

alright biggie is clasic gangster rap, hes the original, i like crooked i hes been underground for awhile now. wiz khalifa i think is pretty good he doesnt try to be anything just hangs with his friends smokes and has fun i respect that. lil wayne is the fakest rapper but has great similes. i like immortal techniques thoughts and lyrics but i dont like the style
check out crooked i though he should become more popular.
