Hip-HopDX - Biggie Ain't The GOAT

The narrator compared Big to Jayz saying that Jay didn't show vulnerability until Blueprint and that Big didn't get a chance to show any at all. Bigs debut gave pieces of his upbringing and closed with a suicide note that detailed his shortcomings and insecurities. Although there wasn't political or religious commentary on Ready to Die he definitely went deeper than materialism. I'm not sure if he's giving Big enough credit.
 
He deserves to be in the conversation but he falls short when it comes to the body of work. Pretty much everybody else in the convo has close to 10 albums and half of which are considered classic, he has two.

Biggie is the most effortless rapper i've ever heard, but the body of work isn't there to cement him as goat to me.
 
*didn't watch the video*

I get so tired of the girls comparing Biggie's legacy to our current legends. Why can't some of them comprehend the fact that Big's life was cut short? Trying to compare his catalogue to rappers with longevity in the game is redundant now.
 
At this point Big has great great grand kids in this game.. His impact is undeniable.. He And Diddy changed the sound of a genre..

"Supreme baller like.. Lyrics I call em like I see em G.. Yall niggaz sound like me.. Yall was grimey in the early 90's far behind me.."
