It doesn't bother me much Goofle, I've never been much of a Pac fan, I see him more as a commercialisation symbol upon his death, a little like Cobain was.
I mean, how many pieces of tacky Tupac merchandise have you seen? Purchased by people who are convinced that owning a poster, or a necklace with his name symbolises that they keep it 'real' in terms of the music they listen to. |

Tupac is probably the most over-hyped rapper of all time.
He didn't do anything to revolutionize hip-hop itself and a large part of his popularity was down to his feud with Biggie, which at the same time helped elevate hip-hop into the eye of the media, and not his music which for the most part was filler. Biggie was in my opinion more technically gifted, but at the same time only released two albums, so it's hard to compare him to artists who have had longer careers. |

I just can't see how anyone can say that Big was somehow more significant in his contributions to hip hop than Pac. |

Not to mention Biggz had what 2 short albums? Pac had sooo much more material and was featured in a gizload of other artists work. Really no comparison. And Pac gave Biggz advice on how it would be when he came up and got popular.
