This is accurate
Twitter debate over who was the bigger star: Snoop Doggy Dogg or 2pac?

Breh, thanks for saving me the keystrokes. 2Pac was Blueface status before MATW dropped. He was more known for his antics than his music/acting. Rape charge, beating up directors, being robbed and shot, spitting at the press.
I remember my dad seeing him on tv saying “look at this clown bouncing out of the court like he’s someone.”
This further backs up to what I was saying, folks thought this dude was a joke/clown especially the black folks who were over 30 LMAO. My Dad was the same way until California Love
That upper class, middle class black crowd thought he was a clown.
That ED Gordon interview was something back in real time. Them black folk, our parents, some I will say, did not like Pac pre-prison.
Breh, you said a mouth full, LMAO, I remember them blacks over 35-60 crowd not feeling Pac lmao

For the people who wasn’t around at the time and now looking back at tupac accomplishments
Snoop was bigger at the time..
Even with pac doing juice and above the rim, death row was running shyt and warren g came along and killed the soundtrack of above the rim..
Then u mix in biggie and wu tang clan and bone thugs and dr dre vs eazy beef,, tupac wasnt there yet
Tupac only had 96 and probably could have been longer if he stayed in the studio and stopped trying to be in the streets

Pac was in a movie with Janet Jackson as her love interest. Pac was the biggest star on the planet before he passed. He was smashing Madonna. Snoop might be the most recognizable rapper alive today, but Pac was a way bigger star. Snoop didn't come into his own as a personality until the 2000's. He was still shy, nervous, and awkward. Pac was comfortable, and men wanted to emulate him. The image he created at 25 is on par with James Dean and he will forever be immortalized.

People in here trippin lol. You can say Snoop was bigger, but don’t play Pac like he was Redhead Kingpin status or some shyt
I’m from Augusta, Ga and Pac was a big deal down here especially when Keep your head up came out. I can only imagine how big he was in these other places. One of my favorite collabs he ever did came out in 1993Dude had a great run man. Don’t downplay it

Nah Snoop was more famous initially
BUT
Pac was ascending at astronomical rate. I would say by 95. It was basically 1A and 1B at the point and Pac was still rising at the time of his death. But I always thought it was silly argument both were like the most popular artists of the era.
One thing I will say is that 2Pac because of his propensity for media and his Black panther background made him famous across a larger swath of people.

This is hard one for me because I have no idea what White households were like back in the '90s. I do kinda remember part of snoop's notoriety back then was because white folks thought he had a funny sounding stage name (snoop doggy dogg).

How?? Just pointing out things that were actually happening during that time. I was a teenager during those yrs.you sound as much of a "20 year old tupac fan" as me
Only reason he "dated" Madonna was cuz he hung with Haitan Jack. Haitian Jack used to supply her and maybe even fukk her. Not sure what it has to do with how famous someone is either.
