I don’t think there is a bigger rap song than juicy, but feel free to correct me

ain't it crazy both these guys got t-shirts selling in target and walmart like indefinitely

Not mad at that

I would say 2 of America's Most Wanted is Pacs genre defining song overall followed by Brenda's Got a Baby

Live in Die in LA is his general mainstream defined song

His 2nd album came out a few weeks after he died. What’s the point with that last sentence dawg

maybe Hypnotize

What qualifies Warning as a hit? Its not even in his top 10 most streamed songs and I don’t think any non rap fan would know it

We’re talking songs that were hits in real time thats why I didnt include s*** like Brendas Got A Baby which is obviously a song a lot of people know but just because 2pac is popular and a lot of his songs are popular that doesn’t make it a hit

Its definitely up there

Yep I agree and honestly if you wanted to argue a definitive answer for either today I could see it. You very rarely see one of them brought up in all time discussions without the other. You throw on any random 90s hip hop playlist it’s going to have multiple songs from each. They both could stand on their own solo acts but also were integral parts to groups so their reach really was massive. Both GOATs

what's bigger in yo opinion ?

just the first 5 seconds of Big Poppa and Hypnotize certified for life lmao

History repeats itself they say

????

I just said what the point of it was

We didnt get to see either one of them fully live out their commercial primes

What tf is unclear about that thats not even a bad thing to say

What’s the point of only including stuff that was a hit at the time do we not considering that became hits later still hits? Weird criteria. We do not have numbers on warning’s numbers at the time because it was the B side that was with juicy aka making it also one of his best selling ever.
Also being a massive cross appealing biggest hip hop song ever isn’t what u need for it to be a hit tho

It might be that

Itd def be in the convo idk id have to sit and think about it

ya but ur saying that as if “oh big wasn’t popping like pac cuz he didn’t have a big first week till he died” and it’s like bro he had ONE album before he died

eminem

No thats what you’re assuming wtf

Im saying an actual fact

Neither one of them got to live out their commercial prime they both died right as they got next level big

Foh with all that extra s*** bro I hate when niggas put words in my mouth especially on some negative s***

idk Man U said “pac became a top selling rapper the year before he died- big didn’t have a big week till after he died” sounded like a Comparison to me but

Im just saying who had more commercial hits in time bc he said its crazy to say Pac had more

In terms of just rap only they both have 30-40 songs you could say are hits because their whole discography is known by rap fans especially ones who were listening to rap pre 2010s

Lose Yourself
Trajectory wise Not Like Us will go down as bigger

Its also funny how they both got bled dry in post death that were both positive and negative

Pacs vault added to his mystic and legend but hurt his catalog diving by Death Row n co

Bigs short discog getting reissued over n over added to his image of being short lives but masterfully executed + making him bigger in death than alive, but made his "suit era" played out due to all the rehashing from Puff

Gift and a curse but still keeps them trucking on for the still foreseeable

not like us debuted and was performed at the super bowl in like 9 months that is kinda crazy tbh

The first part of the post literally says neither one of them

Pac only had 1 year of being a top selling rapper idk how thats a slight at biggie, its not like 1 year is a long time most of his career he wasnt a top selling rapper

just googled it out of pure interest, apparently the most streamed rap song ever is Post Malone- Rockstar

Fairs my bad
