I wasn't comparing Tupac to anyone myself, I'm not even really a fan of Eminem. I just think Tupac is glorified disproportionately to others, and his death has a lot to do with it.

but gary...i'm not arguin that...it may be
look at the popularity of MJ in japan 20yrs after he was hype...i know there are groopies

but,when a guy like Nas admits that Pac was one if not the greatest of all time...that's one hell of a complement

but,that's his view...mine is that of a consumer...PAC crushed everyone
if he were still alive...hate to disappoint...but he would do the same to these guys

I was talking more about his legacy, the mystique and nonsense about his death, and how much they milked that cow. There's no doubt Tupac was good, but people reference him all the time, just because he's dead.

It's not unique to rap, they do the same with Kurt Cobain, John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix, etc. That doesn't mean the praise isn't deserved, but there's something else to it, just because they're no longer around to "sell-out" or become irrelevant. They went out when they were at the top of their game, and then poof, nothing. Our memory of them doesn't get shuffled around by later things, poorer work, etc. We're left thinking all about the positive, because that's all time gave us.

thats just ur opinion...
its like imo busta has some good stuff,but has nth to do with the top rappers
2pac and eminem are my favs...though i came to like em better
and who says all that lyrics and albums were his(afzer he died)...maybe some lyrics could have been his,but its all for the money

He would still be revered as anyone else who didn't die before their time. But I think his death did more for his legacy than if he continued making music. Who knows.
