its defnitely between tupac and em, and if em stopped now i think pac would have a chance, but i think em will go on long enough to have more great songs then pac, but if pacs career wasnt cut short, it would ahve been a different story. the thing i noticed about music is that anyone can get super annoying. thats the thing about dre. he puts out a cd every once in a great while, but its still the sh!t. but em could play himself out, and tupac never had the chance to do that(even though releasing all these cds after he is dead is making a good run at it). and hearing him constantly talk about how hard his life is when he makes more money then the pope wouldnt have worked out for me after too long. em has more diversity. and the thing i really like about him is he doesnt take himself serious. he is in his videos with tights and a cape where as other rappers have 50 pounds of diamonds and platinum on them complaining about how black peopel cant get money. these guys need to give back to their commuinties. its pretty rediculous to me. obviously not all rappers do this, but when they do its really annoying....rap has really gone down the tube imo. it has become way too mainstream. and before anyone asks what this has to do with the thread this is how my life is so u can sit there and listen! i used to think tupac was still alive and if i am not mistaken this is the 7th year after his death, so if he is making a come back, it should be within the next couple months. i used to be a believer in all that nonsense, but i really think he is dead now. although i wish more then anything that he does come back to revive rap. the onething i dont want is for him to come back all pop. anyways the rest of my summer consisted of a trip to ireland, trying to get this one girl, working, and just chilling. o and of course the most important thing in life....playing video games....actually i havent played that much too busy. rap sucks! punk rules!
