whats with all the comparing...........2pac, Biggie, Big L, Big Pun, Nas, Busta Rhymes, Redman, Methodman, Eminem and anyone else i missed, they're all unique in there own way! to think one rapper is the best is really narrow minded.
@HipHop226 Sorry sun Big was a beast but NOBODY can go from street, to conscious, to mystical, to poetry, back to street, then to africa all in 8 bars like Nasir, Big didnt have enough dimensions to compete with Nas, Dont get me wrong Big was a MONSTER, but what he lacked in ability he made up with charisma. NaS is the best Poet/Griot hiphop maybe even 20th century american music has ever seen, We're talkin about Nas bein in the class with Johhny Cash, Nina, Bob Dylan type shit
@junya74 With me the best MC is who has the iller rhymes. Nas is a better artist than Big but Big is the better MC. For instance,Pac is a great rap artist. He is a better artist than Pun,Rakim,G Rap,and Black Thought. But is Pac a better rapper than those MCs? No. See where im going

Nas too diverse, poetic and lyrical. Pac never could get wit him period. Nas can talk streets, politics, economics, deep science,biblical, spiritual,revolution, and mix it all together in one verse. He dropped out of 8th grade and has all that knowledge,wisdom and advanced vocab. God's son the best and is stillmatic caz he still at it and Illmatic. Illmatic jus listen to his knowledge and vocab and was only 17 when he started recording that album.
Nas too diverse, poetic and lyrical, too ahead of his time. Pac never could get wit nas period. Nas can talk it all streets, political, economics, biblical, spiritual, deep science, revolution.

@SVTCO That was the track off that album 4,5,6, he even collaborated wit nas on that fast life.Kool G even knew Nas was a superior and supreme type nigga
pun had the talent to be the best but he simply wasnt here long enough. and its one thing to call urself the best like LL cool J, Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, Jadakiss, etc. But its totally different when other MC's respect you as the best. Busta, Lupe, Saigon, and Kanye all said Nas was the best of all time
i hear you..but nas has spoken abuot pun..n said his one of the greatest...n simply big pun is nuch better emcee than nas..lyrucally his flow intellengince stiry tellin skills metaphors...is simple pun is the greatesr emcee ever..!!
That's your opinion.Many people think Nas is the best of all time.Many people think Jay-Z is the best of all time.Just because you have a different opinion doesnt make you right.
true that. nas is one of the few who always bigs up Pun. but i cant agree to say he is simply better than Nas. maybe Nas right now but Nas back in the early 90's. like when illmatic dropped, i cant agree to that. its too close lyrically. but one thing i'll back up is that Pun is not a better story teller than nas. Pun has ill strories like "fast life" but nas got to the point where he spit a whole story backwards. he spit lyrics that made sense if you read them backwards or normally.
@realitycheck87 Yeah nigga that rewind was what got me to be like this nigga is too ill. And I'm born raised and live in Cali. And we don't even say shit like ill out here but that's the only word to describe em. Talking bout no hell. She said me me kiss. Bobbed her head and spit my
@realitycheck87 Slick Rick was beasty too. And pac an biggie both had good stories. But nas was fuckin descriptive as fuck. Method man has good stories. But the most underrated artist that was in the game was mac mothafuckin dre nigga!!!! Listen something you should know!!!!real pimp shit!!!
@realitycheck87 nas in my opinion is the GOAT but i dont think he's the best story teller, i mean its not really what he's known for. For me Ghostface is the best storyteller.. tracks like Shakey Dog, Yolanda's House and Gihad, no one paints a picture better
