Pac wins hands down, Tech would even admit it. If you watch documentaries on Pac, the guy was so deep and creative and best rapper to ever live. For everyone say Tech...Get real.

but on a serious note i feel like Pac was way overrated i believe he was just really blown up back then because there wasnt that many rappers around i aint that old so i cant say for sure but to me it just seem like Pac was the first to put hardcore rap out and it was different from what everybody was doing, they liked it, millions of people jumped on the bandwagon because he started a tread. and if there was a modern day Pac he wouldnt sell because its a new tread now. it aint about shooting a bitch anymore but how much Swag you got and how much you can put on a track. we dont want to hear thuggin just kissin and huggin

2 completely different types of music. you find a gangsta kid and i guarantee they will say 2pac. pac was amazing cuz of his passion and you gotta remember he was really only in the rap game for 4-5 years. imagine tech only doing the worst, the worst 2k, calm before the storm and celcius. would he be considered a great rapper?

I was around, but I just never understood why he was so big, I think people overreacted to him. Yeah he rapped about real life situations, but his raps were never really that good. Plus he completely contradicting himself in a lot of songs. Plus, wasn't his death gang related? It'd almost be like Larry Hoover rapping about global warming and the government, then be shot and killed and have everyone act like he was such an inspiration. People often think my tone on this is anger, but it's really not. I give him props that he had such a successful life, but it's his fan base that I don't really understand and/or agree with.

It was the impact he had on hip-hop and the culture. Brenda has a baby, Lord Knows, So Many Tears, Dear Mama. He addressed real life situations and brought them to the the publics attention. Were there people who wrote better. Sure. But nobody can touch how he touched the people and the community. If you werent around when he was, you probably wont get it. You can look back at Hit em Up or the Biggie shit and think he was just some thug rapper but you cant. You cant appreciate someone if you werent there to experience it. So, IMO, if you werent around for Pac, your opinions are slighted. Its like a 20 year old comparing the Korean War to the one in Afghanistan. They would be ignorant to the feelings, emotions, and imoact of one side of the argument.

Pac himself was associated with the Pirus (Bloods) gang, rival of the Crips, and I know not everyone will like a rapper, but I'm just saying he wasn't really anything to brag about. Here's how he contradicted himself: In his song, "Keep Your Head Up," his lyrics are actually nice "I wonder why we take from our women/why we rape our women, do we hate our women?/I think it’s time to kill for our women/time to heal our women, be real to our women." But on his same exact album only a couple of tracks later on a song titled, "I Get Around," he says, "Back to get wreck/all respect to those who break they neck/To keep they hos in check/’Cuz, hos, they sweat a brotha majorly and I don’t know why, your girl keeps pagin me." If that's not a contradiction, then I don't know what is.

I dont see how he contradicted himself but whatever. I think that it was a crip that did it but not for something gang related. Not everybody is going to like a rapper.

2Pac is soo overly glorified its not even funny, its the media that blows this type of shit up and than you get punk mothafuckaz thinking they know about hip hop walking around going 2pac is the one and only. 2Pac was a legend, no doubta bout it. But he wasn't the best.

And there sure as hell is no way 2Pac is better than Tech N9ne, to even compare them is retarded. The reason why Pac was soo big is because he had a FUCK EVERYONE attitude. He was thug, no fake gangsta. A Real thug who came from the streets. He had no problem telling a reporter to fuck off and spit in the camera, that was just him and people were not used to it so it made hudge headlines and he caught alot of attention quick. He will always be remembered for classics like California Love, Dear Mama, Wonder Why They Call You Bitch. Very versatile artists, but not as versatile as Tech N9ne.

You never heard Pac switching flows like Tech does or have as complex of a rhyme pattern as Tech.

Tech N9ne is therefore a much superior and more versatile artists, this does not mean I'm dissing Pac in any way. He still is one of the greatest.

in a documentary he said that he made those two songs to show 1)strong women like his mom and sister and 2)women that make themselves like people. the example he gave was he walked past a girl in the club and she looked at him and didn't say anything but then someone told her that was tupac and then she was interested in him i'm sure about the first one the second one i can't quite remember the way he worded but along those lines
