My opinion aint trollin bruh.I've consistently said them albums are wacc and it's laughable to think biggie isn't a better mc and had 2 albums better than everybody on death row roster.Lemme guess daz,snoop,rage,pac and dr dre compare to big right?
Foh
Nobody said they were better than Big's albums. The only ones to make that case is Doggystyle, The Chronic, and All Eyez On Me.
But Big was Bad Boys entire meal ticket while Deathrow kept filling the airwaves with hits. There is no comparison. Deathrow and its legacy shits all over Bad Boy. Big was the only reason that company stayed afloat .
This couldn't be further form the truth. Bad Boy in 1997 alone had a plethora of hits. All of them from the Rap artists on the label. "Hypnotize", "Mo Money, Mo Problems", "Been Around The World", "It's All About the Benjamins", and "I'll Be Missin' You" all peaked in the Top 3 of the Billboard 100 in 1997. All of those either featured Biggie or were about Biggie, but "Can't Hold Me Down" was a #1 hit, Mase's "Feel So Good" peaked at #5 and "What You Want" peaked at #6.
Bad Boy's legacy is arguably greater than Death Row's for the fact that it transcends Hip Hop. Bad Boy at one point was Urban music. How many R&B artists and even Pop stars like Mariah had a Bad Boy remix? Jay Z and LL both had The Hitmen (Bad Boy's in house producers) to helm their albums in '97.
After Biggie died, Puff was going 7X platinum and Mase was 3X platinum. Shyne and Black Rob both had platinum albums in 2000.
People are seriously underrating and downplaying Bad Boy's dominance, legacy, and significance to Hip Hop (not only Hip Hop, but music period).
Yea after Suge was incarcerated, pac was murdered, and the company went to shit.
All them niggas you named were one album wonders. During Deathrow's glory days, bad boy wasn't holding a candle to Deathrow.
I agree that Death Row ran it from '92-'94. Bad Boy didn't give them any real competition until '95 when Ready To Die really started catching on, but didn't really dominate until 1997.
As for the one album wonder thing:
Dre dropped one album on Death Row and bounced to start Aftermath
Dogg Pound only had one successful album on Death Row
Pac and Snoop dropped about the same amount of albums on Death Row as Mase dropped on Bad Boy
Really 92-94? Try 92-96
Pac was doing his thing in 96 Bigge wasn't doing shit in 96 as of dropping an album.
Pac was the biggest name in Hip Hop in 96.
Dropping All Eyez On Me and 7Day Theroy in that year and those albums are classic and arguably
Top 100 albums in Hip Hop.
Bad Boys legacy was 95% Biggie
no other rapper on bad boy is still around.
They either became pastors
Converted to Islam
Or Disappeared
Dre and Snoop still around
Pacs name is still being brought up
Daz just dropped an album
Kurupt still around
Nate passed but was still making dope hooks before he died.
Other then Biggie you can't compare no one on Bad Boy to anyone Deathrow.
Having Snoop/Dre/and Pac on one label is like having
Magic,Jordan,and Drexler on one team.
Even without those 3 you have Nate,Daz,Kurupt,Michelle and Danny Boy.
Deathrow >>> BadBoy
