Was flawless at everything. Cadence, flow, delivery, subject matter, quotables, rhyme schemes, consistency, songwriting, rhyme schemes, and everything else. Nobody could do what this man did and it's wild cause he died before his prime
Agreed on him being perfect but wym by counting subject matter as a criteria?
he had meaningful s*** while also rappin bout fly s*** and street s***
Kanye till 2013 had him beat
Kanye has ghostwriters and cant rap at an elite level. His flow, delivery, and cadence not god tier like biggie
If Young Thug and Biggie were in the same era Biggie would be just another fat nigga on the streets.

Biggie albums also have aged the best out of all the 90s album BY FAR imo
Fam dropped a double album in 1997 and when I listen in 2019 I only skip at most 5 songs
Puff Daddy and The Hitmen on the boards
subject matter lacking tbh
sky's the limit
suicidal thoughts
everyday struggle
Drake
pre-Take Care Drake was not a great rapper
Great music, some great verses but very formulaic and limited
sky's the limit
suicidal thoughts
everyday struggle

How is it lacking? Because he doesn't have as many songs as you want? I just named 3 off the top I could name a lot more. Biggie released like 45ish songs before he died and like 20% of them have some deep subject matter. That's not lacking at all. Most all-time great rappers aren't known for their subject matter like that except pac and nas.
