2Pac is my favorite rapper. I'm so glad I grew up in the 90s and remember 2Pac when he was alive. Pacwas the only rapper that had music that made u happy, sad, angry, cry, and DANCE!
Dude!!! The only that died and me cry like my brother died . Man I was sick and had to call out cause my heart drop to my stomach. I was listening to him my whole teens years
And that’s Jay Z‘s Achilles hill right there no matter how big he gets people always say when Pac and Biggie was around you were not ever in the conversation. went unnoticed.
Not a lie told. This history revisionist types seem to forget that some of us were alive back then, and were old enough to be outside. We know who the giants were. If niggas didn't die, the whole pecking order would look alot different right now. Even the sh## about Beyonce. It ain't far fetched. Jay was getting Biggie (Charlie Baltimore) and Nas (Carmen) sloppy seconds back then, because he wasn't on that level to get first dibs.

@@JKorver So if you do your research and go learn about all the slick underhanded stuff Jay Z did against the entire rap/hip hop community as a whole. You will see why he is where he is. He took out the competition. Those of us who are old enough remember back to when we thought Jay Z, Nas, DMX, and LL Cool J were gonna do great things together. Three of those people just kind of fell off. Then years later we find out that Jay Z was messing around with their release dates. Go look at their interviews. We see how he did Dame. We all knew him and Beyonce didn't make sense in the beginning of their relationship. Just looking at the age range and when Beyonce started in music. She was groomed for Jay Z and we all know it. Hell look at her. She has lost all of her true friends in this game, just like Jay Z. Replaced them all with industry plants. Jay Z also dropped a dime on the black label owners in the 90s who were all working together to build a distribution company. All those labels ran into MAJOR PROBLEMS after Jay Z dropped a dime on em.
Here we go cats talking about something we would never know. If, if, if, that’s all I hear. We’re in present time. How he know Beyoncé would be with 2Pac? He doesn’t because 2Pac is gone and he’s not here to speak for himself. Soon as he started talking about Beyoncé I turned it off. Y’all need to stop listening to these cats who wasn’t around when PAC was here.
I was 27 when pac physically stopped walking this 🌎 unless u was around in them days some will never truly get it . I respect others opinions but for me it's always gonna be pac it's sort of like trying to explain Jordan vs Lebron unless u was in that Era u will truly never understand. Much love to everyone on this 🌎 that ain't out to shit on the next. We all got our favs so whoever u rock wit rock wit 'em....peace to all.
Totally,understand ur point…I grew up in that era…PAC s energy, passion and presence made him impossible to ignore , even to those not,following the rap game

Gipp been throwing shots at Jay Z since for at least 7 years. His MJ and Lebron analogy was poor. Bron is more technical. To call Jay a one shot pony is hate. Hov been running circles around niggas. Artist, full management of artist and athletes, investments, etc. Pac had a weak vocabulary, wasnt lyrical but he spoke with heart and passion. But that nigga is not better than Jay on any level.
I’ve Always said the same thing 💯💯 Jay z is 53 yrs old We got to see everything he accomplished and created but Man I’m telling you if 2Pac had made it to 53 just imagine everything he would’ve Done 😢
He was too dumb to do any of it.. He wasn't a business man, he never thought for himself. He was basically Kanye West of the 90s.. A walking contradiction and a dick riding hating ass nigga. That's the reason he died broke.. He was a puppet..
TBH he probably would have caught a charge and had to sit down for a 5 or 10, them folks was getting sick of his sh!t and the public would have been too...If he didn't change his ways he was bout to be excluded from movies an all, so he would have been just another DMX WITHOUT the drugs
@@bigdawg1372 PAC and DMX were 2 very different cats. Tupac was 25 when he died coming off a 2 year period in which he caught a false charge and sent to Rikers, and got blasted 5 times with clear lethal intent on his life. Pac had the world against him. When he came out of jail and handed his soul to Suge, he was full of rage anger emotion and fear. He was not living easy at that time at all. By 30 he’d have been a calm level headed OG. That pac wasn’t the real pac, and we all have those phases in life when nothing smooth, when the bit** leave you when you lose your job when you suffer setbacks and heaffuc**.
this what people don't understand lyricism - it's not just about wordplay it's about the feeling, emotion and heart behind the words … Very FEW MCs had and have that
@CEELOW3000 100% agree. So many MCs today we have all the wordplay... so much technical skill... but no feeling, emotion and heart… passion… behind what we are saying.... we are rapping with great skill about nothing: abuse of drugs, meaningless sex, materialism and violence against each other... hip-hop we are directing such vehement violence at each other... and killing each other... because of our worship of material things: jewelry, gold, platinum, diamonds, luxury cars, one stupid hype brand after another... putting these things above human life, which is far more precious, and is priceless... as KRS-ONE said, The word is the power of the universe... do not doubt it’s power… Word is life…. However, misused, it’s deadly… properly used, it can be miraculous… Our words should breathe life into each other…We are falling short… Our lyrics are lacking respect for that power… our generation is lacking unity, love and compassion for our brothers and sisters, which I do believe ‘Pac explored heavily in his music, poetry and good deeds… not denying that he wreaked havoc with his spoken word, as well… Well, I think there are topics far more worthy of a poet's attention, than drugs, sex, material things and violence... I think there’s a place for drugs, sex and material things in their proper context… but there’s far too much of it in rap in the wrong context… balance needed… hip-hop’s been saying it since Scott LaRock R.I.P. … Self-destruction you’re headed for self-destruction… that’s one of rap music’s defining struggles… and one of our defining struggles… the quest for balance… Will we ever find it?
facts you don't believe what they saying or feel it . that's a talent that Pac had that's overshadows lot of rappers that have technical rapping skills like Jay Z or Nas@@XandiMusic
He talking bout Jay-Z wasn't a triple treat, but the question was only about rapping. Not acting, not his girl, and not being a CEO. Jay is the greatest rapper of all time.
It’s amazing to me that they say only reason why Jay Z is who he is is because of Beyoncé that shit blows me .. Jay Z became that dog it is what it is .. Tupac was Great but it will forever remain a mystery, who, or what he would’ve become give Jay Z his props for surviving and thriving .. he did it in the middle of DMX is Apex. Ja-Rule Apex He did it in the middle of Lil Wayne’s Apex. He did it in the middle of Kanye West is Apex. He did it in the middle of Jeezy Apex. He did it in the middle of T.I Apex. He did it in the middle of Ludacris Apex. He did it in the middle of Rick Ross Apex. He survived the juggernaut 50’s burning scorch. So on and so forth.
Yeah he can get his props. Just not no #1 spot on any hip hop/ Rap list when Tupac, biggie and artistes like those existed. He should see his way to #15 or so on such list.
Jay Z dropped reasonable doubt a classic when biggie and Tupac was alive. I listen to all the music PAC has ever dropped. Tons of classic songs, heartfelt music, but I’m not so blind that I can’t see another brothers light Jay Z was going to be who he became regardless.
@Avery Diggs Yes Jay Z would but HE WOULD NOT BE AS BIG NO FUCKING WAY WITH BIG AND PAC ALIVE HELL NO!!!. HE TOOK ADVANTAGE OF THEIR LOSS AS HE SHOULD AND STILL FUCKING BEHIND NAS BROTHER. JAY WHO??? 😅🤣😂. EMINEM DROPPED HIM ON HIS OWN SHIT, LOST TO DMX WHEN THEY BATTLED, DIDNT SAY SHIT TO PAC OR PRODIGY ON WAX OR FACE TO FACE LITTLE PUNK.
Pac had them jealous and shook while alive and he have a lot of ya'll hypnotized with Hate against his name,even in death 😂😂😂 Some of ya'll really want him to be Gay sooooo bad, It's weird 🤨 People wear a lot of things, apparently, ya'll favorite rappers wear dresses, fingernail polish, Acrylic nails, weave and purses but we aren't talking about clothing choices 😆😆 We're talking about talent and some things you just can't deny. Tupac is hands down, # 1. Period. In my opinion, Jay Z isn't better than Biggie or Nas! However, I don't see any of you Tupac haters pointing that out just hating that Tupac supporters always stand on the fact that no one can touch him. 😆 🤔 Interesting.
How does Beyonce being with Jay have any impact on how good of an emcee one is? Why isn't Bey a billionaire if she brings that much clout to the table? It just don't add up. Plus all this "if" shit is crazy who sits down and ponders this foolishness? If Pac was still alive he'd be this that and the third. Uh no he'd still be getting extorted by Suge and would probably have had to get Master P or J. Prince help to get out of that situation. FOH.
Jay z this Jay-Z that won't y'all get of jay z dick. What type of man is worried about what other man wouldve have another dudes lady. That's some straight gossip girl beauty salon talk and I'm not surprised it's coming from a dude from Atlanta.
Most rappers don't have a plan past rap and seeing how Jay managed to make music, get the checks, get the awards, build a successful business empire and marry a woman who made him better, these older guys can't stand it. Who is to say Pac would've evolved with the times? He was at his peak when he died, and it's unfortunate, but a lot of monsters have come out since then. X, Nas, 50, Em, Kanye, Wayne, Jeezy, T.I...etc Jay deserves his flowers for staying in the conversation for over 20 years.
Cause most rappers can't substain the success like jay and I'm not knocking it s*@t it's hard to put a hot album let alone 10+ dude really is like a savant even before he dropped a album he had the best overall flow.
@@brickflipper5273 Respectfully, he’s the goat due to longevity..biggie & 2pac passed away , he wasn’t better than those two ..they were younger than Jay z more relevant at the time also ..they were well ahead of him in 96’
@@T_83-1 Jay dropped his first album in '96. He JUST started. The fact that he was even on Pac's radar as basically a 'rookie' in the game should tell you all you need to know about Jay's greatness.

The fact that Jay could be as successful as he is WITHOUT women being a large part of his demographic is MORE of a testament to his greatness lol. Jay's legacy is bullet proof. Just tip ya hat and give it up. The man dominated the game like no one has before.

Jay got a chance to evolve as an artist and have a hall of fame career. Pac only 1991- 1996 and still compared to artists in 2023? Imagine Pac evolving. Alot of em would have a career change 🤷🏿
He aint lying, Jay Z is a perfect example of how the media can overrate someone and make them something they never was. How can Jay Z be the GOAT when till this day he's not even an international star. his music doesn't get bumped outside the Tri state area.
2Pac is the greatest of all time and it is not even close. No disrespect to any of these bullshit little lists but they don't count for nothing, the people know! People outside the US do not even give a flying fuck about Jay-Z, let's be real. I had the honor of traveling all around the world, Pac's presence is everywhere, his music, his life, his passion, his intellect and his art inspired everyone from Africa, Eastern Europe, Asia, Australia to South America and so on. Pac's music means so much more to the world than Jay-Z's. Actually, nobody's songs can be compared to Pac's. He impacted way more people than any other rapper on that list. If Jay-Z was never born, I doubt much of the world would be different, but if Pac was never born, damn...a lot of people I know would be in a different place. His music helped so many through tough times and gave them power. Pac is the best that ever was, the best that ever will be. FACT!
This title is wild and crap. We all know Beyonce doesn't like men that are loud and act too much like a gangster. Jay-z is between gangster/gentleman and that is what Beyonce likes, a man with a brain. In her past interviews the way she talks about jayz, his coolness, and his presence in a room man you could tell she likes those things in guys. This guy has been running his mouth talking no factual stuff but opinions and he needs to cut it out.

Here we go cats talking about something we would never know. If, if, if, that’s all I hear. We’re in present time. How he know Beyoncé would be with 2Pac? He doesn’t because 2Pac is gone and he’s not here to speak for himself. Soon as he started talking about Beyoncé I turned it off. Y’all need to stop listening to these cats who wasn’t around when PAC was here.
Doesn't change what he said as FACTS. EVERYTHING THIS MAN SPOKE IS TRUTH. SORRY.

@pitoseavy4523 And you zombies 🧟♀️ from this generation, will follow anything.
Jay Z bar for bar is leagues above Pac. I love Pac but this about all of being a rapper. Andre 3000 is a better comparison
Grown man professing his gay love for 2pac through someone's wife, i done seen it all
"I F*CK with Pac! PERIOD!" I have a new found respect for Big Gipp. Love it 😍 ❤️
2pac the greatest you can feel his music 💯
Cause it's from the heart
I was 27 when pac physically stopped walking this 🌎 unless u was around in them days some will never truly get it . I respect others opinions but for me it's always gonna be pac it's sort of like trying to explain Jordan vs Lebron unless u was in that Era u will truly never understand. Much love to everyone on this 🌎 that ain't out to shit on the next. We all got our favs so whoever u rock wit rock wit 'em....peace to all.
Totally,understand ur point…I grew up in that era…PAC s energy, passion and presence made him impossible to ignore , even to those not,following the rap game
rip pac, the greatest to ever do it
When you let someone talk long enough, you start to see how they really feel about you/somebody.
Mmmmm

He kept it 100. He just told the truth.

Jay Z literally has 13 no 1 album [The most for every other artist] and he started at 26 years old. Put some respek on Jay’s name
He ain't shh up against 2pac. That's just the truth.
2pac is bigger than hip hop's culture. He is a legend on a worldwide level.
That was deep🤫the best conversation I ever heard about!! the best to ever do it; 2pac. and he hit too a T. Preach 🎉
Gipp been throwing shots at Jay Z since for at least 7 years. His MJ and Lebron analogy was poor. Bron is more technical.
To call Jay a one shot pony is hate. Hov been running circles around niggas. Artist, full management of artist and athletes, investments, etc. Pac had a weak vocabulary, wasnt lyrical but he spoke with heart and passion. But that nigga is not better than Jay on any level.
Who’s still here 🤷🏾♂️ PAC non-discipline got him up out of here. Gotta learn to control your anger
THIS ISNT THE 1ST TIME GIPP SHOUTED PAC OUT AND GAVE HIM HIS FLOWERS…SALUTE TO THE WHOLE GOODIE MOb…WE FUX WITIT HOMIE💯💯💯💯

Couldn’t have said it better✊🏾 its only 1 Pac💯
I’ve Always said the same thing 💯💯 Jay z is 53 yrs old We got to see everything he accomplished and created but Man I’m telling you if 2Pac had made it to 53 just imagine everything he would’ve Done 😢
He was too dumb to do any of it.. He wasn't a business man, he never thought for himself. He was basically Kanye West of the 90s.. A walking contradiction and a dick riding hating ass nigga. That's the reason he died broke.. He was a puppet..
He suck his way to that money ✡️✡️
TBH he probably would have caught a charge and had to sit down for a 5 or 10, them folks was getting sick of his sh!t and the public would have been too...If he didn't change his ways he was bout to be excluded from movies an all, so he would have been just another DMX WITHOUT the drugs
He would be in the news every week to a month. Does dat help😎
@@bigdawg1372 PAC and DMX were 2 very different cats. Tupac was 25 when he died coming off a 2 year period in which he caught a false charge and sent to Rikers, and got blasted 5 times with clear lethal intent on his life. Pac had the world against him. When he came out of jail and handed his soul to Suge, he was full of rage anger emotion and fear. He was not living easy at that time at all.
By 30 he’d have been a calm level headed OG. That pac wasn’t the real pac, and we all have those phases in life when nothing smooth, when the bit** leave you when you lose your job when you suffer setbacks and heaffuc**.
this what people don't understand lyricism - it's not just about wordplay it's about the feeling, emotion and heart behind the words … Very FEW MCs had and have that
@CEELOW3000 100% agree. So many MCs today we have all the wordplay... so much technical skill... but no feeling, emotion and heart… passion… behind what we are saying.... we are rapping with great skill about nothing: abuse of drugs, meaningless sex, materialism and violence against each other... hip-hop we are directing such vehement violence at each other... and killing each other... because of our worship of material things: jewelry, gold, platinum, diamonds, luxury cars, one stupid hype brand after another... putting these things above human life, which is far more precious, and is priceless... as KRS-ONE said, The word is the power of the universe... do not doubt it’s power… Word is life…. However, misused, it’s deadly… properly used, it can be miraculous… Our words should breathe life into each other…We are falling short… Our lyrics are lacking respect for that power… our generation is lacking unity, love and compassion for our brothers and sisters, which I do believe ‘Pac explored heavily in his music, poetry and good deeds… not denying that he wreaked havoc with his spoken word, as well… Well, I think there are topics far more worthy of a poet's attention, than drugs, sex, material things and violence... I think there’s a place for drugs, sex and material things in their proper context… but there’s far too much of it in rap in the wrong context… balance needed… hip-hop’s been saying it since Scott LaRock R.I.P. … Self-destruction you’re headed for self-destruction… that’s one of rap music’s defining struggles… and one of our defining struggles… the quest for balance… Will we ever find it?
facts you don't believe what they saying or feel it . that's a talent that Pac had that's overshadows lot of rappers that have technical rapping skills like Jay Z or Nas@@XandiMusic
He talking bout Jay-Z wasn't a triple treat, but the question was only about rapping. Not acting, not his girl, and not being a CEO. Jay is the greatest rapper of all time.
It’s amazing to me that they say only reason why Jay Z is who he is is because of Beyoncé that shit blows me .. Jay Z became that dog it is what it is .. Tupac was Great but it will forever remain a mystery, who, or what he would’ve become give Jay Z his props for surviving and thriving .. he did it in the middle of DMX is Apex. Ja-Rule Apex He did it in the middle of Lil Wayne’s Apex. He did it in the middle of Kanye West is Apex. He did it in the middle of Jeezy Apex. He did it in the middle of T.I Apex. He did it in the middle of Ludacris Apex. He did it in the middle of Rick Ross Apex. He survived the juggernaut 50’s burning scorch. So on and so forth.
Yeah he can get his props. Just not no #1 spot on any hip hop/ Rap list when Tupac, biggie and artistes like those existed. He should see his way to #15 or so on such list.
PAC THE GOAT, JAY KNOW FUCK OUTTA HERE
Jay Z dropped reasonable doubt a classic when biggie and Tupac was alive. I listen to all the music PAC has ever dropped. Tons of classic songs, heartfelt music, but I’m not so blind that I can’t see another brothers light Jay Z was going to be who he became regardless.
@Avery Diggs Yes Jay Z would but HE WOULD NOT BE AS BIG NO FUCKING WAY WITH BIG AND PAC ALIVE HELL NO!!!. HE TOOK ADVANTAGE OF THEIR LOSS AS HE SHOULD AND STILL FUCKING BEHIND NAS BROTHER.

Pac had them jealous and shook while alive and he have a lot of ya'll hypnotized with Hate against his name,even in death 😂😂😂 Some of ya'll really want him to be Gay sooooo bad, It's weird 🤨 People wear a lot of things, apparently, ya'll favorite rappers wear dresses, fingernail polish, Acrylic nails, weave and purses but we aren't talking about clothing choices 😆😆 We're talking about talent and some things you just can't deny. Tupac is hands down, # 1. Period. In my opinion, Jay Z isn't better than Biggie or Nas! However, I don't see any of you Tupac haters pointing that out just hating that Tupac supporters always stand on the fact that no one can touch him. 😆 🤔 Interesting.
How does Beyonce being with Jay have any impact on how good of an emcee one is? Why isn't Bey a billionaire if she brings that much clout to the table? It just don't add up. Plus all this "if" shit is crazy who sits down and ponders this foolishness? If Pac was still alive he'd be this that and the third. Uh no he'd still be getting extorted by Suge and would probably have had to get Master P or J. Prince help to get out of that situation. FOH.

I am so proud and happy that gip is not scared of gazee and his cell out tactics and spoke the truth
Jay z this Jay-Z that won't y'all get of jay z dick. What type of man is worried about what other man wouldve have another dudes lady. That's some straight gossip girl beauty salon talk and I'm not surprised it's coming from a dude from Atlanta.
FACT
Most rappers don't have a plan past rap and seeing how Jay managed to make music, get the checks, get the awards, build a successful business empire and marry a woman who made him better, these older guys can't stand it.
Who is to say Pac would've evolved with the times? He was at his peak when he died, and it's unfortunate, but a lot of monsters have come out since then. X, Nas, 50, Em, Kanye, Wayne, Jeezy, T.I...etc Jay deserves his flowers for staying in the conversation for over 20 years.
Cause most rappers can't substain the success like jay and I'm not knocking it s*@t it's hard to put a hot album let alone 10+ dude really is like a savant even before he dropped a album he had the best overall flow.
What TF has Beyoncé gotta do with this? Nas better than pac and HoV went toe to toe with him. PAC dead let that man rest Danmm
Even Jay himself said in a bar I want the women to love me forever like tupac soul
50 cent said I want them to love me like they love PAC too
Jay is the 🐐. He defeated all
@@brickflipper5273 Respectfully, he’s the goat due to longevity..biggie & 2pac passed away , he wasn’t better than those two ..they were younger than Jay z more relevant at the time also ..they were well ahead of him in 96’
@Brick Flipper 🧢 He turned flaky when Jadakiss challenged him to battle rap, DMX had the stadium going pandemonium during their tour together, etc
@@T_83-1 Jay dropped his first album in '96. He JUST started. The fact that he was even on Pac's radar as basically a 'rookie' in the game should tell you all you need to know about Jay's greatness. He was coming with or without Pac present. Never understood why people use that weak ass point to try to discredit Jay outside of just hating. Also, love from women has nothing to do with rapping. The fact that Jay could be as successful as he is WITHOUT women being a large part of his demographic is MORE of a testament to his greatness lol. Jay's legacy is bullet proof. Just tip ya hat and give it up. The man dominated the game like no one has before.
Love Gipp he always talk FACTS…….
Should’ve would’ve could’ve don’t matter. Hov was a hustler before the fame
If we talking lyricism, Jigga got that wrapped. Influence and appeal, I'll give Pac that. Rhyme for rhyme, there's no contest.

Wow he's telling all the truth can't argue with this
He aint lying, Jay Z is a perfect example of how the media can overrate someone and make them something they never was. How can Jay Z be the GOAT when till this day he's not even an international star. his music doesn't get bumped outside the Tri state area.
2Pac is the greatest of all time and it is not even close. No disrespect to any of these bullshit little lists but they don't count for nothing, the people know! People outside the US do not even give a flying fuck about Jay-Z, let's be real. I had the honor of traveling all around the world, Pac's presence is everywhere, his music, his life, his passion, his intellect and his art inspired everyone from Africa, Eastern Europe, Asia, Australia to South America and so on. Pac's music means so much more to the world than Jay-Z's. Actually, nobody's songs can be compared to Pac's. He impacted way more people than any other rapper on that list. If Jay-Z was never born, I doubt much of the world would be different, but if Pac was never born, damn...a lot of people I know would be in a different place. His music helped so many through tough times and gave them power. Pac is the best that ever was, the best that ever will be. FACT!
nobody could’ve put it any better! many artists have an i’ll flow…however, not many artists can command attention without something shiny to look at…
That’s why I never digged Jay like that. He talked materialism too much. Pac was a movement.
Sound to me like Gipp Think Pac is Cuter Than Jay-Z🤷🏾♂️... All the Hits, Plaques, Grammy's, Business Deals, etc. And U Bring Up Beyonce? That's Hate.
😂😂😂
Yeah he being super lame
This title is wild and crap. We all know Beyonce doesn't like men that are loud and act too much like a gangster. Jay-z is between gangster/gentleman and that is what Beyonce likes, a man with a brain. In her past interviews the way she talks about jayz, his coolness, and his presence in a room man you could tell she likes those things in guys. This guy has been running his mouth talking no factual stuff but opinions and he needs to cut it out.
Cut it out. This sound like a bunch of Hate Gip! It's alot of If's... We too old for this shit
He just said "I" did movies that was successful.... guess who is talking about himself right now? Lol
All Pacs friends sound so bitter at other successful artist. Should of, could of, but didn't.

He's right. He said when the giants was walking the earth , the game was different. Plus JayZ rap carrer would've never elevated over Biggie and Biggie was under 2Pac's mercy.
Biggie is considered the g.o.a.t not 2pac
