You're confused

It wasn't a diss. I'm saying it's crazy how east coast rappers can literally use nursery rhymes and rap cartoonishly, but get respected as lyricists but rappers outside NY get held to a higher standard

If gucci mane rapped this:

"Hey, you, get off my cloud
You don't know me and you don't know my style
Who be gettin' flam when they come to a jam?
Here I am, here I am, the Gucci Mane
Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake, hey, the Gucci Mane
Don't eat Skippy, Jif or Peter Pan
Peanut butter 'cause I'm not butter
In fact, I snap back like a rubber
Band, I be Sam, Sam-I-Am
And I don't eat green eggs and ham
Style'll hit ya, wham, then goddamn
You'll be like, "Oh shyt, that's the jam"
Turn it up, now hear me get buck w-w-wild
I'm about to blow, light me up (Light me up)
Upside, downside, inside and outside
Hittin' you from every angle, there's no doubt I
Am the one and only Gucci Mane
The master of the plan, rappin' shyt like Saran
Wrap, with some of this and some of that
Hold up (What?) I tawt I taw a putty tat
Over there, but I think he best to beware
Of the diggy dog shyt right here
Yippy-yippy-yay, yippy-yah, yippy-yo
Like Deck said, "This ain't your average flow"
Comin' like rah, ooh-ah, achie-kah
Tell me, how you like it so far, baby paw?
The poetry's in motion, coast to coast and
Rub it on your skin like lotion
What's the commotion? Oh my Lord"

Some ny nikka would be like "this Nikka and these dr Seuss, mother goose rhymes :mjlol: "
Oh nah I’m from VA, half of NY coli hate me and got me on ignore

I call it how I see it

New York has had several horrible rappers that get crazy respect like Nore and Mr Cheeks

Easily done:

In his review for The Source, the leading hip-hop magazine in the United States, Allen Gordon hailed Shakur as an elite lyricist on display on the album, called it "his best work by far" and noted that "any complaints critics and fans alike had about Tupac's last two albums can be put to rest".
Now really read that paragraph with your big boy brain.

I dunno yall Virginia nikkas be suspect at times :mjpls:

Some of you try to be east coast. Your grandpappy ate neck bones. You's a country nikka like me. Remember that :ufdup:

Also, it's more than just the wack and average ny rappers that get gassed up. Even the great ones get graded on a curve.

I’ve spoken several times on my travels with the heathens from up North and how they negatively influenced my region.

I came back home decades ago family. :mjcry:

Don't be mad at the truth. All Eyez on Me was a monster hit and Puff clearly wanted to compete with it. :umad:

Biggie idolized Pac

Christ not everyone looked up to Pac and wanted to be him especially if you were his age or older.

DMX had that I don’t give a fukk style since dropping demos in the late 80’s early 90’s.

He was in and out of juvenile detention centers/prisons as a teenager while Pac was doing ballet dancing I can assure you X didn’t take Pacs style or attitude lol
I never said he did ….. but I still believe he was influenced by pac in some way music wise ….

Seee if we talking some mc lyrical battle type tip mc then obviously x wins cause that wasn’t pacs lane ….even on a normal lyric tip you could say they not to far from each other both great … but like I said … just based off songs and albums alone pac deffo has the better catalogue and his career was only 5 years vs a dmx 20 + years in the game …. again everyone has there opinions they both great rappers but like I said mase and cam knew dmx hung with him went on tour with him … that right there could come across as a lil bias …. none ov them knew pac or was around him ….does the likes of pac and biggie get hyped a little more then other rappers altho they were both great …. Of course since the whole controversy around there deaths and the whole east vs west thing …..

X was known for battling and that's why Cam and Mase have a different level of respect for him. Guys from that era are going to appreciate a rapper's rapper.

Pac didn't come up in that lane. He wasn't someone who was running around getting busy. Outside of the studio he's not known for his pen.
Pac had freestyle battles with mad people behind the scenes. He would really freestyle off the top tho. Pac was great with his pen. I’m tired of people trying to downplay Pac yo this shyt getting wack. And I’m ALWAYS vouching for X’s pen because in any other thread BESIDE this Pac one right here. nikkas HABITUALLY sleep on X’s pen. Now all of the sudden he this lyrical monster when compared to Pac. nikkas hate Pac on this site.

That’s soul music, we talking technical ability, word play.

If I know all your next rhyming words and I’ve never heard the song before you’re not a great rapper.

We used to do that to Pac songs, Celly Cel, Master P, nikkas like that all the time and laugh.

It’s a great way to pass the time when you’re 16 with 10 nikkas on one blunt of brown weed.

Great rappers keep you guessing and dazzle you every time because that’s what real talent does to you
Son wtf are u talking about? Any other thread but this one people use this same exact argument against X. Comparing Pac to Master P as far as talent? U nikkas stupid af.

Enjoy.
