krusty, TFox...listen up, I'm only gonna say this one more time....

Posted by Jim (aka Jim) Mar 12 '09, 08:34

With the possible exception of Kanye West...I don't know that there's ever been a more overrated artist in rap/hip hop than The Notorious B.I.G.

Seriously.

I'm sorry...I can't hear you, I'm too busy listening to Ready To Die...;-) - Krusty Mar 12, 08:43 1

OK, ready, I am going to partially agree with you. Ready? - TFox Mar 12, 08:40 19
- I seriously just cannot get past his sound. For me, putting him in the same breath as Pac just ain't right. - Jim Mar 12, 08:55 4
  - Biggie is the Nirvana of rap. Jay-Z is the Pearl Jam of rap. Discussify. -- nm - TFox Mar 12, 09:00 3
    - There's one major reason that Biggie isn't Nirvana. - the wrong element, bad guy Mar 12, 09:27 1

    - Actually...this is the perfect analogy. Seriously. -- nm - Jim Mar 12, 09:03
- I agree with this 100%. -- nm - Krusty Mar 12, 08:44 12
  - I still think Kid n' Play should of been on the list instead of Will. I'm gonna put a list of better rap acts than he - CQ Mar 12, 08:53 11
    - Gangstarr, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Das Efx, Jeru Da Damaja, Kool G. Rap, Redman and The Beatnuts to name some more. -- nm - Krusty Mar 12, 08:58 10
      - But neither of you can argue with the influence that Will had on the genre. The Fresh Prince played a pretty good role in - Jim Mar 12, 09:00 9
        
        Sure but he's not a better rapper or rap act than Biggie, imo. - Krusty Mar 12, 09:16
        
        No, I can not. And I get why it was close, especially given that the votes are not exclusively "hottest mic skills", which was intentional. - TFox Mar 12, 09:03 7
        
        I was referring to Will's inclusion over a lot of krusty and CQs suggestions. - Jim Mar 12, 09:04 6
        
        which is cool. I think it just makes for great debate :) -- nm - CQ Mar 12, 09:09 2
        
        Now I want to make a bracket that includes acts that aren't "mainstream" rappers. Who other ballgame. -- nm - Krusty Mar 12, 09:20 1
        
        Who = whole -- nm - Krusty Mar 12, 09:21
        
        Oh, any question about the legitimacy of Will's inclusion were squashed when he beat Big. End of story. - TFox Mar 12, 09:07 2
        
        I disagree with it validating his inclusion. - Krusty Mar 12, 09:18
        
        Oh...and I will say this...I considered not voting for "Will Smith" because as Will Smith, he's just been another dude. - Jim Mar 12, 09:13
