Never heard of him.

But if Pac and Big were still alive Big would be the same status as Nas and Pac would be the same status as 50 Cent.
 
He's right

We would be saying they washed and treating them like we treat busta rhymes fat ass
 
Never heard of him but interesting vid. Pac prided himself on keepin' it real and wasn't afraid to speak his mind, they could try to pull his card but nah b that shit wasn't happening. He did too much for his people and he got mad respect all over the nation by that time.

If Big and Pac were alive, they'd be right up there with NaS and Jay as the cornerstones of this rap shit. Shit Pac probably wouldn't even be rappin' he'd be a politician trying to get us our own political party.

Niggaz need to stop acting like he wasn't bout his people like he was some fake ass thug wannabe coke boy rappin' ass nigga like most of you niggaz favorite rappers. And if Big was alive, I promise you Jay catalog wouldn't be what it is right now.

They both had the smarts and potential to figure out how to stay relevant. Not really sure what the fuck niggaz got against Pac on here but to say he'd be lower tier than Jay-Z or NaS is blasphemous.
 
Big same thang ........

J-Z aint at the top no more never really was but for a short moment ....

the rest is his fans blowing him out of proportion
 
Hard Knock Life to Girls Girl Girls was J-Z pinnacle imo .........

the rest was hype train ......... someone refresh my memory if he was ever bigger then that ...
 
1. Who the fuck is russ

2. Lil wayne gets clowned because of corny shit he did,said,or wore...dmx gets clowned for being a crackhead

3. Biggie might have burned out from the limelight, he wasnt all thar diverse of a rapper and would probably struggle to stay relavant over the years

4. In todays climate pac would be much bigger than a rapper, he already was before he passed but at an older age his voice could resonate so much further than just the hip hop community
 
He's right and he's not the first person to say this either. Good thing, well according to people that knew them, neither was planning to rap very long anyway. Pac was going into acting, probably going back to jail also. biggie was planning for 3 more albums and going to just run his record label And other business things. He was going to sign camron. Could've been a big label with dipset and kim mixed with bad boy

I don't think Biggie had the business acumen to run a record label. He dropped out of high school, not saying he's stupid but there's a lot that you need to know to run a successful label. Very few people can do it. Take Suge for example, he had Pac, Snoop and Dre and couldn't make it work because he didn't know what he was doing. Also, when you're in a boardroom with lawyers and MBAs if you can't speak the language they won't respect you.

As far was Pac goes, he couldn't have kept up at the the pace he was going. He would have either got shot and killed by somebody else, in prison or blacklisted from the industry. If he was lucky he could have segued into a successful actor, but he would have to leave that Thug Life lifestyle behind him. He wouldn't be able to get acting gigs if he kept on beating down directors (or jumping people in the casino) and acting out. Also, he would have peaked at Makavelli. Not because he couldn't rap or make hot music, but because generally speaking, people are hot for two or three albums in a row and fall off. You'd have a hard time naming artists in any genre that had more than three multi platinum albums in a row.
