PAC @ 25 vs JAY @ 25

[allisoncomm]

Uncomparable. PAC IS THE BEST!

 

[Already Home_17]

the fact that PAC's legacy which he made in 5yrs from 20-25 shits all over jays 20yr career

good for him
i wouldnt deny his legacy but if i was to put pacs best albums against jays or even other hip hop artists, he wouldn't come out on top
it doesnt mean their catalog is better. i just prefer it more

 

[gee757]

but he isnt though.....

i know & pac is still sellin mo recordz then j DEAD just like when he was ALIVE,.,.

maybe your location has something to do with it?

i mean if the biggest rapper ever from NY got murked in LA..

i would hold a grudge against the westcoast and its artist to... i understand your pain!

im not in pain. location doesnt mean anything. im not NY bias. i listen to rappers from every region and will continue to as long as they're making good music
and i had no connection with biggie so it didnt affect me when he got killed. i was only 4 so obviously i didnt give a fuck
btw, the biggest artist to ever come from NY is still alive

Pac could never in his wildest dreams craft perfection like "Reasonable Doubt".....

Jay spitting like Fu Schinckens @ 25 >>>> what Pac has accomplished in his short 25 yrs

didn't he make a song named "to live and die in l.a." in which he said that the west was the best side???? was he talking about west brooklyn or queens???

and if your not older than 25 stop with your opinions about someone who passed away when you were watchin saturday morning cartoons!!

 

[rapmastermind]

Big @ 24 (RTD & LAD & Junior Mafia & Hard Core & No Way OUt)
NaS @ 25 (ILL & IWW & THE FIRM)
Pac @ 25 (2AN, 2FMN, MATW, AEOM, MAK & TLife)
Jay @ 25 (Working with Big L and Big Daddy Kane, Rappin like bone and the fu snickens, Jaz - o's wing man)

Yea, Pac did a lot with limited so, so Did Big. NaS also did very well in the early part of the year as far as quality as sales when you look back. Jay was not on the radar before he was 26 years old, by that time, Pac, Big, NaS had already put out legendary material. But it's not about age when someone gets on, it's about the quality of the material you release. Jay is Top 5, it's not debatable, he has one of the best and most successful catalog's in rap history. He's one of the richest men in rap history. And he was in a rap song before Pac, Big and NaS though he changed his style cause of them. So the answer to this thread is correct, Pac at 25 accomplished so much than Jay @ 25. Jay was a late bloomer but doesn't take away his legendary status.

 

[KeepinItHundred]

guarntee your from the eastcoast..

you pissed cuz it 20 degreez in your bummy state?

ca >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

not really.

bow wow was a CHILD @ 15 tupac was a MEGASTAR @ 25 j wasnt shit compared 2 pac when he was 25 pac had rap on lock n 96 if he wouldve lived longer i doubt we woudlve heard anythang from j after RD flop so badly imo,.,.

only in sales he wasn't because he hadn't dropped yet. rd didn't flop it went platinum.

shots fired @ me

 

[thewave19]

It did flop

Went plat years later

Pac and Nas first album sold more. So did their 2nd

 

[ROFL.GUY]

It did flop

Went plat years later

Pac and Nas first album sold more. So did their 2nd

rd DIDNT HIT PLAT UNTIL VOL2 DROPPED... and annie made jay a mainstream success

 

[semi-auto-mato]

pac 1st album went gold and second did hit plat until after he died. pac is way bigger in death than he ever was in life. jay is huge in life and there is no telling what is gonna happen when that nigga die especially if it untimely

 

[Smo-King Locs]

pac 1st album went gold and second did hit plat until after he died. pac is way bigger in death than he ever was in life. jay is huge in life and there is no telling what is gonna happen when that nigga die especially if it untimely

No not really

Jay is 42/43.... Age plays a factor, and the Stage the artist is at in their career, plays a factor as well...

when a muthafucka die young theirs always the perception that, that person has not unlocked their full potential...

for example had Micheal Jackson died in 88' he would of been bigger in death then life... he would of been a deity.

But he died in 09', dude was already bigger than life, how bigger can Mike Get ? everybody already had all his CD'S.

He got a lil sales boost, a lil merchadising boost yada yada

i think Jay has reached that plateau, 15 years 11 platinum albums , 5 collab platinum albums, where if he dies then their would be no huge jump, may be an extra 10-15 milli in sales, merchadising and stuff

MR.Z is already huge...

 

[thewave19]

pac 1st album went gold and second did hit plat until after he died. pac is way bigger in death than he ever was in life. jay is huge in life and there is no telling what is gonna happen when that nigga die especially if it untimely

Wrong

Anyway, plus most of these artists couldn't even hold a double album like Pac could. BP2 was wack

 

[And_So_It_Burns]

Jay-Z is a much better rapper than Pac. Not sure why the thread starter wanted to compare these two when pac was in his prome and Jay was just starting out. A better comparision would be both of them in their primes

smh big aint do shit compared 2 wat pac did u cant compare da 2 cuz pac had a BIG hand n makin BIG,.,.

only in sales he wasn't because he hadn't dropped yet. rd didn't flop it went platinum.

im talkin about n 96 RD FLOP compared 2 AEOM j even admitt;d that katz didnt catch on 2 him until 2 yrz after TUPAC DIED!

Jay-Z is a much better rapper than Pac. Not sure why the thread starter wanted to compare these two when pac was in his prome and Jay was just starting out. A better comparision would be both of them in their primes

I JUST think da lame t/s was just pointin out how pac was yunger & light yrz ahead of j @ 25 which is a FACT...meanin when j was startin out n 96 like 26 27 cuz he was born n 69 pac was WAY ahead of jigga runnin LAPZ around him smokin DAILY like on LETZ B FRIENDZ lol pac was n NY n 96 screamin CHECKMATE on MTV he couldve easily put da BRAKEZ on hovaz career n 96 if he was still breathin n da PHYSICAL FORM!
