No slight to Pun, but this many years after Big has gone, hey’re still talking about him. I think that on rhyme talent alone he is the best, but I think that Tupac discussed a greater range of issues than Big did.
If we are considering the b-list and c-list rappers, then Big, Pac and Pun are actually given a run for their money. Most people don’t know what true rap talent is out there in the shadows.
Interesting? In terms of lyrical delivery Pun was clearly the best.As far as Content; I am sorry to say Biggie hardly had any, except Crack slinging, weed smoking, Cars, money and women for a time he didn’t have and he also admittted. Tupac was far better than Biggie in terms of content Biggie better than Tupac while he was alive in terms of delivery However Tupac’s post mortem delivery style was to be reckoned with. But Big Pun ecompasssed the attributes of both while he lived. Biggies post death releases were really watered down to make him more commercially appealing!
