That shyt is nice definitely. But now we get into what if territory.
Remember that Prodigy was one of the best rappers in 96 and better than Pac and all the Outlawz. If Drop A Gem On Em is the lead single for HOE with a crazy video the album probably sells more. Pac and the Outlawz strike back. Mobb probably gets another album out earlier. Is Nas drawn back in? Is the original version of Long Kiss Goodnight released? We know Jay was gonna go at him. So now we got Pac and the Outlawz against Mobb Deep, Nas, Biggie, Jay Z. Probably Trag and CNN too. They would have got buried.
Do Kurupt and Snoop get in it? Who else from the West? Cube? Dre was already making records with Nas before Pac died.

A lot of these guys weren't around to know what you posted bro. Mobb Deep made a big splash into the rap scene in 95 & with Drop A Gem as a lead single in 96 it would've got MASSIVE airplay because it was rap beef & who it was about.

Prodigy Didn't Want To Respond To Tupac Dis, N.O.R.E. Says

The "Super Thug" rapper is also refuting Prodigy's claim that "L.A., L.A." — a 1996 dis song aimed at Snoop Dogg, Tha Dogg Pound and Tupac Shakur — was originally a Mobb Deep track. Noreaga goes on to say that originally, Prodigy wanted no parts of the much-hyped East Coast/ West Coast beef.

You shook, there's ain't no such things as halfway crooks
Scared to death and scared to look

Mobb Deep's Prodigy on Becoming a Tupac Fan, Despite Beef

“I wasn’t a big Tupac fan, I liked his songs like ‘Dear Mama,’ ‘Keep Ya Head Up’ and all of those,” he said. “All of that was before the drama and all that but I wasn’t a big, big Tupac fan until he started the songs going at us. I was like ‘That’s hard, son.’ On that ‘Hail Mary’ track I was like ‘He coming hard now,’ that’s when I became a real Tupac fan.”

Now kiss the ring you corny azz nikkaz:pachaha:

:mjlol::hhh:

Prodigy "one of the best" in 96?????

NOT even close. Don't get me wrong, he's a dope rapper but you really on that bullshyt with this one. I mean, I get it you like Mobb Deep, they got some dope shyt. But this the equivalent of me saying something along the lines of "DJ Quik the most lyrical ever"

:yeshrug:
Who was better than P that dropped an album in 96? :pdahell2:

Assuming that's true Tip is still a much bigger dude than Pac. Pac went up to him, snatched the mic out of his hand, and performed on stage. Nikkaz was talkin' about nikkaz not being intimdated by Pac but the facts bear a different story. Who sends two armed experienced killers to rob a 5'7" 165 lb man?

^^^That's Dexter Isaac. Are you saying that one on one he couldn't handle your average 170 lb male? Not only were they much bigger, there was 2 of them, PLUS guns, PLUS they had to set him up. Why didn't they just "Slowbucks" Pac? Why didn't they "Yung Berg" him? Because nikkaz KNEW Pac wasn't for none of that. You come at Pac you better come correct, the nikka took 5 shots and smiled :wow:
What does any of this have to do with whether Pac was physically intimidating? Pac was average size at best. No one his height and weight is physically intimidating.
