i dont even know where to start with this shit. first of all lets deal in FACTS. put ur opinion to the side and deal in FACTS for a minute. yeah big had a movie and it was good. it was some hollywood shit that half the people who were portrayed in the movie said was bullshit. just like in their musical career pac's movie was out first and had more SUBSTANCE AND ORIGINBALITY. this is a FACT!!!! puff put out his typical over the top fireworks, shinny suits, hollywood bullshit to overhype a man whose legacy was strong enough that he didnt need the hype. u dont have to tell lies and exagerate shit to the the story of biggie smalls. the truth is enough to stand on. pac's movie was non of that and not to mention pac's movie paved the way for biggies movie just like pac's music paved the way 4 biggies whole fucking career. when is the last time u saw a movie narrated by a dead man? how innovative is that??? thats like if malcolm x had narrated his own movie. thats some next level shit. again everything that pac did was next level whhile everything that big and puff did was trying to catch up and overexaggerated. FACTS!!!!!
as far as LAD yeah i said it the album was a disppointment. i was a hip-hop fan and i always loved R2D even after the beef. R2D is classic shit. it is comparable to MATW. both were great albums and i cant decide which one was better even though pac said that big jacked his entire first MATW album after hearing it 1st and forced pac to rerecord a second MATW album. with that said they were both great albums. but you cant possiby compare LAD to AEOM. seriously u cant compare the 2 at all!!!! i dont care how much of a biggie fan u r you cant possibly compare LAD to AEOM. ccome on man. lets not even go down that road. as i said earlier lets stick to FACTS and reality. the production alone on AEOM blows LAD outta the water. AEOM was death row at its peak. bad boy couldnt possibly compare. come on now. deal in FACTS.
even though pac crushed big in the battle and was a superior mc i was anticipating LAD b/c im a fan of the culture more so than just a fan of a dude. LAD had how many fucking skits and shit??? come on man. half the album was about the mad rapper and biggie singing and telling jokes and shit. R2D was hardcore and real all the way through. LAD was a man celebrating his succes and knowing that no matter what he put out, especially in that climate of beef, was going 2 sell. to a certain extent i cant blame him for it. LAD had some bangers. hypnotize, the world is filled, story to tell, going back to cali, and shit like that. maybe if LAD would have been a single disc it 2 would have been classic but as a double album it was full of fillers, fluff, and puff. if u cut out the bullshit and trim it down to a single record that shit would have been dope. but LAD had to much unneccessary bullshit in the way. way too many skits and goofy shit. FACTS.
