    He was, he had a very limited vocab and never switched up his flow and delivery. How many time can you rhyme "enemy and hennesey, soulja and told ya, ? me and feel me, murder and heard ya,etc. Pac was a great song writer and knew how to express emotions but as far as being a mc, he was nothing special; dude doesn't hold a candle to people like Nas,Jay,Big Pun, Ras Kass, etc.

    That doesn't have anything to do with lyrical ability. Do you know what the ? a lyric is? To say Tupac never really changed up his rhyme scheme and flow is one thing, but lyrical ability is another thing entirely. Pac's delivery is what people connect to emotion and his content is what laced it. Spitting metaphors and complex multi's does not define lyricism.

    You're dumb as ? . Damn near every rapper has tried to emulate Pac since he died


    And on another note, Juice Mayne lauce. Dretox is a man so if youre the babydaddy that would make you a ? . ?

    Name these rappers? Labeliing me dumb and then responding with non-sense makes you smart?

    That's your opinion. Furthermore, I didn't just point out what I FEEL are\were pac weaknesses. I also pointed what I think he was good at. Which, renders the rest of girly rant pure ? riding. If, you want this site to be worth it's grain in salt step your debate and communication game up.

    Your exact wording was "Lyrical in classic Hip Hop sense". Lyrical ability in the CLASSIC sense is bawitdaba da bang da bang diggy diggy at the beginning of every verse of the late 70's and mid to late 80's. So miss me with that talk.

    And that's not an opinion, it's fact. Lyrical ability is defined by content first, not delivery or rhyme scheme seperately.

    And that's not an opinion, it's fact. Lyrical ability is defined by content first, not delivery or rhyme scheme seperately.

    That's why MC's like Cowboy, Busy Bee, etc aren't considered lyrical. When, Moe Dee smashed Busy by telling him to put that bawitdaba da bang da bang diggy diggy ? on hold it was monumental. There was a new age of MC's that began to put rhymes in more complex formats. Thus birthing the Lyrical MC "Lyrical in classic Hip Hop sense". So, instead of missing you I'll hit you with it. If, you disagree then so be it.

    I disagree being lyrical is a combination of Flow, delivery and content. Not one before or over the other.

    Pac was lyrical just not in the traditional sense where he was using big words or changing his schemes. He made up for that with his delivery, passion, songwriting ability. He was a genius.
