both guys are talented... I think Biggie benefited from better production, though. You listen to his albums now, and they still sound new, whereas you listen to a lot of 2pac's stuff, and the beats sound very '90s. that said, I tend to prefer tupac, partly 'cause I'm from the west coast and so I grew up with his sound, but also because he seemed to have a bit more optimism in certain areas, and was open about his conflict over the violence he enacted.
