Facts.People Really Really underrate Longevity. Smh
Who started out hotter than Rakim, BDK, 50, DMX, DOC
Big Pun second album was nowhere near the first . If anybody told you in 98 DMX run will be a short one, you would have thought you seen your first Alien.
Assuming Biggie would have simply kept the flame going is a HUGE ASSUMPTION
I can't give you Goat title off 2 albums. I'm sorry
We gotta judge on results not potential
Hence why Nas remains in the pole position. With Jay close behind
What years would you say were prime Nas and prime Tupac?96-97 Jayz is another off the charts raw talent, sometimes I think he was at the top…then I revisit some Prime Nas surreal rapping shhit and be like nahh, Nas easy. Then I bump into a Biggie radio freestyle…etc. All 3 deserve all the reverence they get (You know I agree with you tho, lol, prime Esco the one)
My favorite Esco was around IWW, 95-97…all the features, little mixtape freestyles, etc… every verse was some show-stealing shhit for real. Nas got more jaw dropping, memorable verses in 1995-1996 alone than most greats have in a career.What years would you say were prime Nas and prime Tupac?
First off, remember what I said... RHYME PATTERNSu got any examples ?
Murda Mook is a bytch with bytchlike opinions
First off, remember what I said... RHYME PATTERNS
So a consistent rhyme would be to have the rhyming words at the end... But as long as the PATTERN repeats, it's a constant pattern no matter if 1 word rhymes or 18... The pattern needs to be consistent..........
Now look at the patterns of where he rhymes the words in each line.. Every 4-6 bars, it's a completely new PATTERN. Most rappers stick to the same pattern throughout a verse and even sometimes a song. Newer rappers are switching flows (rhyme patterns) more often...
But Biggie consistently switched them shyts up like every 4 bars. Method Man does this also. Probably why he's the only featured rapper on the album. That's why Clark Kent would say biggie is the better RAPPER but not lyricist of Jay-Z. Jay don't do this typically. He's a 1 pattern per song type of rapper
Got any examplesmost of the good lyricist switch their rhyme scheme up every two bars
and jay z mostly switch his rhyme schemes up every two bars
Nah…maybe BrooklynNewsflash: rappers from NY at murda mook's age consider biggie the greatest, lol
jigga where im fromGot any examples
