To an extent maybe but all that you mentioned also masks and blinds people to seeing Jigga is nice as hell. You can put him in a room with MC's people think are nice and Jigga can hold his own easily.Jay is very overrated and history will reveal this. People were blinded by hype, trinkets and Beyoncé to rate him correctly.
big wasn't that type of writer, alot of the things you said on Jay can apply to Big as their content is the same as well as their approach.
to each their own RD is a flawless album Id take Can I live and bring it on prolly over anything on RTD outside of unbelieiveable

Their style is the same with the exception of Jay's more lyrical dense delivery and big being more of a storyteller and straightforward
But Jay pulled it off better
Nahhh. Hov’s whole blueprint as an MC is directly from Biggie’s playbook.
Jay sounds nothing like BiggieNahhh. Hov’s whole blueprint as an MC is directly from Biggie’s playbook.
Wait, yall nikkas are just gonna ignore this?LMAO @ THIS CLICHE shyt.
THIS ISNT TRUE...
BUT THE BLUEPRINT IS BETTER THAN LAD
AND THE BLACK ALBUM IS BETTER THAN RTD.
You can’t really hold that against Jay tho. He had one of the best albums of the year but so much shyt dropped from already established acts that year that he flew under the radarReasonable Doubt came out between both Biggie albums and sold less than Raekwon..Summer 96 everyone in NY was bumping It was written but these nikkaz try to rewrite history. Jay-Z didn't become huge til BIG died.
I used to believe that Jay was nicer than big, and yes, Jay is more lyrical than big, but Big, overall, is the greatest MC to ever pick up a microphone. Bigs ability to float on any beat, and any flow, and not sound forced or gimmicky, combined with his mic presence, is something we have not seen since. Can’t stop the Rain/Reign and Benjamin’s beat switch are the, imo, two greatest performances in hip hop history. Listening to Big now is just sad because you think about how he would have flowed over certain beats and what kind of slang and shyt he would be spitting now. To me, Big is the GOAT, then Jay.
Biggie had it all when it comes to being the perfect emcee and then when it comes to his albums he was able to do all type of songs from the songs for the streets to commercial joints (singles) for the radio and videos to the storytelling etc etc
He just had everything it takes to be the perfect emcee and lyricist. Rhymes, lyrics, Voice, cadence, flow, delivery, storytelling etc etc
Big mastered every element of emceeing
He's the Jimi Hendrix of Hip Hop
