Jay-Z > Biggie

[Counter Punch]

I'm not big on Biggie and I am from NY so I actually have a lot of rappers>Biggie.


Nas, 2pac, any of the original Wu members(except for U-God and Cappodonna), Guru from Gangstarr. I also like EPMD, Capone N Noreaga and Mobb Deep more than BIG but of course they're not better lyrically, I just like their music more than Big's music. I guess you can call me a Biggie Smalls hater. I'm just not the type to ride a rapper's bandwagon just because they died.

Exactly. Biggie and Pac are the most overrated rappers of all time.

Everyone knew what Biggie & Pac where to rap when they were alive too. These young kids who weren't around listening to music back then have been deprived, but also can't have the same perspective.

I doubt Jay-Z would even say he's better than Big. And the fact that he's always jacking BIG rhymes makes it even more concrete.

I always felt he had a jealousy issue with BIG.

"If you haven't heard, I'm Michael Magic and Bird
all rolled in one - cause none got more flows than Young
Plus got more flows to come
And if I ain't better than Big, I'm the closest one"

It's almost like he was waiting for someone to say it because if he said it, he'd catch hell...

To be fair, since Jay Z had the chance to develop better skills, you can only compare the two at the time Biggie was alive, correct?

Ok so 1997 Jay Z to 1997 Biggie.. It was pretty close. Tough to call. Clearly Biggie gets overrated because of his death.

Yep. Really comes down to opinion. I always had it Nas > Jay > BIG. Not that they were the best but just out of the big three.

Biggie was just so much more popular than those two. That must have been one hell of a three year ride Biggie had.
