Jay-z at 25 = ceo of his own company

Pac at 25, selling 7 mil and dying with a 1000 dollars in his bank account

Pac has better album sales

 

[urmybitch]

He was also a better entertainer.

Most of Pac's sales came post death.

Reasonable Doubt dropped in 1996, Big Died in 1997. Selling Indie going gold = selling 4 mil on rape you records (BadBoys).

Pac debut album sold the same as Jay-z debut album. You ashy niggas need to stop acting like Pac came out the gate selling multiplatinum, the mfs career didn't go to the next level until all the controversy (beating up directors, shooting cops, raping bitches, spitting at cameras, getting shot). The socially conscious Pac was barely gold, until the niggatry came out of him.

lol@ ashy niggas & niggatry.,..nobody is denyin pac was not sellin millionz out da door but best believe by 25 he was shittin on jigga n 96 & anybody that sayz anythang different is DELUSIONAL & is a jay-z DICKRYDA lol.,.

 

[urmybitch]

Jay Z has had over a decade to catch up to Pacs albums and he still isn't even close. Jay Z= the Mitt Romney of Rap

Pac was 20 and Jay was 25

Does it really matter, point being they both sold gold initially. Not everyone's career is going to ark and peek at the same time, some people come out the gate swinging (50, Snoop, DMX) and some people find success later on.

Of course he was outselling Jay is 1996, that was Jay-z coming out year, he didn't have 5 years behind him like Pac. If you're gonna compare Pac and Jay compare them five years in.

5 years into Pac's career (91-96) before his death he sold 7 mil albums off (2pacalypse now, Strictly for my niggaz, Me against the world, and All eyez on me)

5 years into Jay-z's career (96 -2001) he sold 15 mil albums. Grant it Jay relased more albums, but Pac's double album doubled his sales

yeah didn't really sell 2.5 units before he died?(i remember him bragging about him selling 5 mil live, which would be 2.5 units on a double disk)

Pac didn't sell major numbers until Me Against the World. MATW made him a superstar.
