If you cut half the songsAEOM >>>>>>>>>
and its not even close
Well..trying to define ONE album as GOAT....just aint gonna happen..its your opinion..you convey a decent argument tho...but you sound like a fan first..so that will show bias..
How old are you? Another was heavily played when the album was having it's run.another, player hater and nasty boy prevent this album from being a 10/10
nikka please. Despite being classic,it's an attempt to match AEOM that fails. AEOM is the goat hiphop albumMe Against the World is the greatest artistic project of all time to me. A man predicting his fate and telling his real life while craziness is happening in front of everyone.
But LAD is the best hip hop album ever. Musically, sonically it hasn't been touched. I still feel a beat like my downfall. And the rain in somebodys gotta die. No one was doing that. nikkaz bleed. the skits. Mad rapper. playa hater. The stories. The aftermath. Even the intro sounds like a movie studio created it. It's the greatest and no one can contest that.

It was a great point/counter point back and forth record for the two genders.
And playa hater was enjoyed and laughed at.
It's the album that since it's released everybody tries to make; a perfect blend of songs and yet nobody can come close to doing. Biggie set the real benchmark for Hip Hop post Life After Death
He had already won with Ready To Die (bringing the east coast back to dominance) and it's like, that was just the beginning. Ready To Die like Life After Death is a milestone in music.
Then he did the unthinkable with Life After Death and took the game to another level.
Bar for bar, verse for verse, line for line, he is the greatest MC of all time.
You might have another nikkas who might be/were just a tad bit (not by much if at all) more lyrical than him (Nas or Pun for example) but in terms of the full package, Biggie was all of that and then some. He was miles ahead of nikkas with his music.
Big had the "hottest chick in the game" with Faith, was ghostwriting for his crew, never dropped a wack verse and always gave it his all.
Still to this day, it ain't an MC that possesses even an ounce of the talent Biggie had.
The voice, the rhymes, the flow, the style, the image etc etc. He was the man. He is the GOAT MC.
Is this even up for debate?
Nah.RTD >
Johnny J productionI get what you mean but I think AEOM executed the same thing just as well
Great album. AEOM tops it though
