biggie. both were instrumental in their own ways, it's a difficult call, but i'm more a fan of biggie. 2pac got a whole lot of credit for being "philosophical, political, poetic etc" but IMO it was a bit blown out of proportion. if you've seen a lot of 2pac behind the scenes, you get the idea that he's no different than any other rapper on the scene at the time. no more or less intelligent than biggie or snoop in any way, tho the media definitely portrayed him that way
