BIG and Hov can't be compared... Biggie is the king of storytelling and no one can eff wit Hov as far as subtle allusions... both are kings in their own right... sick of rappers being compared to each other...
Beat its all about the beat...Pac and Big had a unique gift in that they could put together a Studio band with so much talent it was crazy matched with their God givin talent...Please...
hey hey. who sounds better ah?! biggie or gay-z? done there. just because his lyrics might be better sometimes. dont make him a better rapper all together. its hows you say it. the flow you got. the power behind the voice. biggie got feelin with his words. hell make you shit your pants. youd have take a minute to feel gay z lines. yah dig. point blank. biggies the better rapper. dumbfucks.
how dare anyone say jay better then big.. r u serious. i mess wit jay, but lyricly, nobody will ever b better then big. cant nobody put phrases 2gether like big. u dudes better wake up. jay could never put a story 2gether like big. u dudes better go listen 2 gotta story 2 tell.. he tell a story so good, u would think u was there. jay is great, but he bite 2 many lines. he came n rapping like he was part of fushickins, then kane. big came n like big and died like big
billiestingjean,as much as i love ready 2 die, there isn't a song on that album that can match the lyrical showcase of Politics as usual, Dead Presidents II, Friend or foe, 22 two's... I could really go on. Jay's lyrics on Reasonable doubt were laced with more wit I think.
jay-z sold more records than puffy ,but biggie was the best selling hip hop artist for 10 years intill 50 cent witch is a nobody compared to big or pac for all that matters. you have to reconize the brillance in the way he drops the lyrics man come on, what are you def his ryhms are incredible his flow flawless .
its always a competition for some niggas. even when nobody is playing any games. some niggas cant just sit back and enjoy this music for what it is. Two extremely talented rappers putting it down together and having fun doing it.
I totally disagree... Jays lines are soo basic... Biggie had soo many punchlines... "Blocka, Rocafella, Bad Boy Callabo, 2 MCs With Mad Dough".... "Say My Name, Make A Nigger Dash Liek Dame"... fuck man dats tooo ILL!
Biggie and Jay both made their name and fame more with their sick flows than their lyrical content. if you werent dick riding BIG so hard you could tell its mostly his flow and unique voice that crush the competition. but i think jay and big were both all time greats that made classic material together and were even friends so why try to turn niggas against each other?
how is what im saying going to turn "niggas against each other" when big is dead?! fool... hate to burst ya bubbles, biggie maybe the best but Jay Z is not... common look how much lines he stole from big after he died.. isnt that proof enough!
nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo u kant hear jay spit" bein broke is a childish thing and im qite grown" "nigga skip the bull cuz we manadors" "snap like cameras on amachers make you all dance hold a hammer to yours"
lol... i cant believe im getting thumbs down! put it this way, if you think Jay is Better than BIG in this song or in hip hop in general... than you just dont know nothing about HIP HOP!
I know enough about hip hop to know this isn't a battle, just two legends rapping...I also know that no one has ever hung with biggie on a song except jay-z (check the horrible duets crap for proof)...biggie did kill it with the last verse, but you're a hardcore hater if you don't acknowledge jay's P.I.M.P. flows on this.
In general Jay-z is better than BIG simple as dat, but Biggie died young and didnt get 2 enhance his flow like Jay-z did so its not a fair comparison, but if u compare Ready To Die/LAD to Reasonable Doubt my opinion is Jay wuz already ahead of him by a little, go back and listen to "can i live" or "d'evils" or either "dead presidents" and tell me Jay wusnt better, Biggie still ill tho
Bruv...what youve just said is the biggest CRAP i heard... im gonna say this based on fact NOT opinion...
Is it not a fact he Jay Z says "Best Rapper Alive"...(hence biiggie n Pac being dead)...
Isnt it not true.. after reasonable Doubt Jay Z has taken advantage of biggie by reciting his lines in MOST of his HITS (I Just Wanna Love Ya, Girls, Girls, Girls,... Encore) just to name a few..
Isnt it true Biggie sold more than Jay Z?? I dont remmeber Jay selling 10Mill + albums on one album! END!
and im gona hit u back wit FACTS, on "what more can i say" Jay-z says "pound for pound im the best 2 ever come around here excluding NOBODY", and after reasonable he has said biggie lines, but i wuz saying Reasonable Doubt lyrically wuz better than ready 2 die and LAD IMO, not anything Jay put out after, and since when duz sales determine whos a better lyricist? so soulja boy is better than scarface just cuz he sold more?
the sales aint the point now.. im talking back then SALES determind who the better was... if they thought ya music sucked, it wouldnt hit platinum.... Lyrically your saying right?... coz i dont remember a song Jay did on reasonable doubt that is better lyrically than Everyday struggle, One More Chance, Big Poppa, Unbelievable, Warning etc... besides what more can i say was waaaay before he hit out with Miss You (remix) n shit where he KNOWS he is not better than Big... yo man got retired by nas!
What? "niggas skip the bull cause we matadors(bullfighters) - snatch the p-89's(guns) that we pack in the drawers(underwear) - then we...clap(shoot) the doors on ya Acurors"(Acuras with Brooklyn accent).
Wow a lot of rappers use biggies lines from this song on their songs i have heard basically every line from biggies verses on some other songs and even a couple of the ones jay had and noone can say jay-z is sick as biggie all the songs that biggie and jay did jay-z is sick biggie jus is that much sicker and that flow is untouchable i have jay-z top 10 of all time biggie tied at numba 1 with big l but jay-z did rip this song almost as good ALMOST big up to Jay R.I.P Biggie
When I hear this, I imagine cruising through some part of Atlanta some time in the early evening in one of my Mercedes with one of my chicks sucking on one of my balls while I'm smoking on one of my cigars...
Instead of being a college kid eating Ramen noodles, beating off every friday night to pictures of whores I couldn't afford to sleep with...
I'm a college kid driving a fucking escort and I'd bet my life I'll pull hotter bitches than you any day. I'd rather be real and able to handle myself without the facade that money provides. It sucks to have to pay for pussy. Always remember this, those whores you pay for will suck my cock for free when they leave your mansion. Who you think taught them that trick?
This song makes me realize that life is a bitch.I feel so sad whenever i hear BIG that dude was lyrically a genius besides he's flow is just so...But anyway Jay-z still run it,holla!
Angela Winbush GOES OFF.....as usual. She sounds so fucking good. unlike the usual up-n-comers they get to sing hooks on rap songs. She's professional. The woman's a legend...
that is not a tupac diss. he braggin about the money he has. saying that while you at home watchin the fight, he's actually there. "same nite same fight" meaning its the same nite and we watchin the same fight only difference is, my money allows me to be here, while u gotta watch it on pay per view.
it means that his money has grown. for example let's say that 4.5 means " four and a half million" then 4.56 means that there's 600 000 dollars more than 4.5 millions (4.5 + 600 000 = 4.56). When he says aint shit changed except the number after the dot on the range, that means he has more number after the dot on his range of money, that range could be millions, hundreds or thousand. Got it ? I just thought how to get some basic money calculation here players. Better hustle like me to know.
I was tired and shit when I wrote that, Anyway , ya get the point of what I was trying to explain. Thks for correcting, but a lil more kindness wouldn't hurt nobody. shit.
He's referring to a Ranger Rover. Because of his greater access to currency, he was able to upgrade from a Range Rover 4.0 to a 4.6. The difference being the size of the engine(4.0 = 4.0 Liter; 4.6 = 4.6 Liter).
that's your opinion, and thats cool but i just dont see how he outdid Big. take the three tracks they actually did together, Brooklyn's Finest, Young G's, and this one. Jay-Z kills his shit in each, but in Brooklyn's Finest Biggie said "if Faith have had twins she probably have two Pacs" that shut that down right there. in Young G's he said got "got lawyers watchin lawyers, so I don't go broke" just think about how sick that line is.
now with this one. he says "now we buy homes in unfamaliar places, Tito smile everytime he see our faces"
Biggie actually mentioned Tito fuckin Jackson in a song.
no doubt Jay did his thing, Biggie even said himself that he believed that Jay was just as good as him. but its hard to deny that Biggie could make you laugh, think and be like oh shit all in the same verse
But lyrically, this song is just incredible. Big's verses, he does it like it's not even hard. And Jay just kills it with the Brooklyn accent. This joint is lyrically better than BK's finest, but BK's Finest will always get the nod in the hip hop world because it's the most known and it was their first collabo.
jay and big killed this and both had stellar verses but who was better yall? i would say big i mean jay was bad but he WAS NOT BETTER THAN BIG SORRY ITS THE TRUTH.
all this pac vs biggie shit disgusts me, they both 2 great rappers, pac had deep lyrics, biggie had a deep flow. it ends there, they both great at there art. its all opinion. respect wat they did for hip hop, dont hate on the other cuz u like one better, its just stupid.
Prada be something u cats gotta see!! $350 for shoes and 400 for boots.. i heard this wen i was n middle school and my father went and got me a pair and now I'm a Neiman Marcus junkie... Jay is a trend setter.. trying find those Louvie with red bottom, he said u gotta have them... I was in 8th rocking prada's classmates rockin hush puppies.. back n 98
Louvie with red bottoms?? i havent heard of those....but i have heard of Louboutins with the red bottoms, but those are heels!!! lmao...quit lying nigga!!
Please dont be silly. Big is great, jay-z is great, tupac is the greatest because of consistancy, idolism and realism.. as a freestyler, biggie is unstoppable.. as a song writer/poet pac beats any rapper!.
its all based on opinion, you believe hes the greatest and others feel differently. doesnt matter where he lived. but just to clarify a few things type in MC NEW YORK in wikipedia and see where it takes you
so I never understood.. Jay Z is throwing subliminals at a dead tupac? "same night, same fight" and he also refers to the tyson fight so was this a jab at Pac? cause I heard before Jay Z was the only rapper to publically diss tupac...
Naw, I doubt it, its a song about dough...so jay is just saying Broke niggas was watching the fight from home while Jay was watching it live...No subliminals for Pac
He's sayin he was in the fifteen hundred seats (price of the seat). One of us cats aint playin right. He's saying he aint gonna snitch. but he does mention same night same fight. is that night he's referring to Suge Knight ???
I thought bout this too...Im thinkin on "two kats aint playin right"...That's Suge (his driver/homie) (and the missing kat!) Biggie knew who it wuz cuz he's dead now, So that leaves Suge & the Cop who sum how got to the scene when he was apparently off duty all dressed in his penguin suit...later to be sentenced in involvment in Biggies case to prison, where he can enjoy prison & a low key lifestyle!
why these so called rappers today cant make songs like this anymore, every time i hear the old school stuff it make think did hip hop really progress? there mit be more money now but muisc wise i think hip hop is dead
putain c'est pas vrai, mais ils l'ont tous utilisé cette intro, "jackpot 2000" de 113, "900 Degrees" de ian Pooley, c le délire, en tout cas la zic est trop excellente ^^
cases catch more than out-fielders half thes rapin cats aint seen war,couldent score if thay had point game thay lame speek my name i makem dash like dame. AT THAT POINT 1997 I HADENT HEARD NO NIGGAS COME LIKE ON SOME RAP SHIT. ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER.

I love the dough
bforbes10 3 years ago
BK's Finest is classic.
But lyrically, this song is just incredible. Big's verses, he does it like it's not even hard. And Jay just kills it with the Brooklyn accent. This joint is lyrically better than BK's finest, but BK's Finest will always get the nod in the hip hop world because it's the most known and it was their first collabo.

You cats is home screamin' the fights on. I'm in the 1500 seats watchin Tyson. Same night, same fight, but one of us cats ain't playin' right.
Jay-Z is ballin', he's at the fight. You're just watchin at home cuz' you couldn't get there (you ain't ballin)

Big and Jay are the wittiest rappers in the history of this game.

Love this song. I play it when I'm loving life :-).
"Everybody got a part to play, back to yours."
"Play monopoly with real cash."
"Being broke is childish and I'm quite grown."
So many quotables on this song...

"pop chicks that favor idallis": that was one of the prettiest females host from mtv back then.
"carribean sands with rachelle": a jamaican bet host very sexy.
"in the 15 hundred seats watching tyson": means hes ringside..not at home watching.
just some of the classic lines ever said. funyy these guys said alot using less words unlike nowadays rappers with no vocabulary.

all this pac vs biggie shit disgusts me, they both 2 great rappers, pac had deep lyrics, biggie had a deep flow. it ends there, they both great at there art. its all opinion. respect wat they did for hip hop, dont hate on the other cuz u like one better, its just stupid.

2Pac Is The Best EVER
AlbaniaKing187 3 years ago
AYO best ever at wat cuz it wasn't rappin cuz BIG was G.O.A.T. nd he'd sodomize 2pac on the mic, real talk 2pac is disgustingly overrated as a rapper

yea Tupac was deep and he had a purpose but on some Hip Hop shit..Nobody fuckin with BIG, Nobody
originalMC 3 years ago
Please dont be silly. Big is great, jay-z is great, tupac is the greatest because of consistancy, idolism and realism.. as a freestyler, biggie is unstoppable.. as a song writer/poet pac beats any rapper!.
alanhill61 3 years ago
you are so right about tupac being the greatest. mutha fuckas dont give tupac his respect because he didnt live in new york.
drewali7 3 years ago
its all based on opinion, you believe hes the greatest and others feel differently. doesnt matter where he lived. but just to clarify a few things type in MC NEW YORK in wikipedia and see where it takes you

treworld2 3 years ago
so I never understood.. Jay Z is throwing subliminals at a dead tupac? "same night, same fight" and he also refers to the tyson fight so was this a jab at Pac? cause I heard before Jay Z was the only rapper to publically diss tupac...
RudyG20 3 years ago
Naw, I doubt it, its a song about dough...so jay is just saying Broke niggas was watching the fight from home while Jay was watching it live...No subliminals for Pac
tghetto5 3 years ago 6
He's sayin he was in the fifteen hundred seats (price of the seat). One of us cats aint playin right. He's saying he aint gonna snitch. but he does mention same night same fight. is that night he's referring to Suge Knight ???
scottlarock13 3 years ago
LOL youre not serious right? But thats a tight display name
tghetto5 3 years ago
I thought bout this too...Im thinkin on "two kats aint playin right"...That's Suge (his driver/homie) (and the missing kat!) Biggie knew who it wuz cuz he's dead now, So that leaves Suge & the Cop who sum how got to the scene when he was apparently off duty all dressed in his penguin suit...later to be sentenced in involvment in Biggies case to prison, where he can enjoy prison & a low key lifestyle!
