    Lyrically I'll take Big with the metaphors, wordplay and wittiness

    Flow wise I'll say Pun dude could flip words like few others could

    As far as making records I think both could make tracks for the radio but Big's 2 albums are recognized as top 10 hip-hop classics. Capital Punishment & Yeah Baby were dope but I don't think they match-up to Frank White's catalog.

    In conclusion I'm taking Big..

    Biggie had the better Albums but if Im in a life or death situation and I needed one of them to rap against an opponent and I'll be automatically executed if that rapper loses I think I'd pick Pun to rap for my behalf. Skillwise the man had no weakeness. Biggie's clarity and battle heart wasn't where I liked it to be on some mcees. If Hit 'em Up came out and it was about Pun then I think the responce to that record would be completely different and more timely and lryical than Long Kiss goodnight.

    Pun was the better mc....But live shows I heard he had no breath control.But yo Pun is on some other level ? .Plus Pun vocab was GOAT.

    Dead in the middle of Little Italy little did we know
    that we riddled some middleman who didn't do diddily

    Best 2bar rhyme in hip hop history.

    Biggie was WAY better. Biggie created his own lane and styled on dudes with it. Pun is/was garbage. One phrase to describe Pun is "a watered-down G-Rap."

    People need to stop trying to rewrite history and understand that Pun is in the same lane as Big L. Before they died nobody gave a ? about them. They were underground and not relevant back when relevancy was more based on talent, then not.

    Lol at lyrically Pun was better smh Pun was nice but he was fast spitter so ? are quick to say his lyrics are better just like Big L. Big was the emcee's emcee could give you any type of flow fast spit, slowed down and sing along style like Bone's.


    Pun couldn't spit fast or slow? LOL

    Biggie will always be the best to me and I'm Latino. But it is a hard decision because Pun had such a sick word play. I just wished like in one of Puns last interview they would have had that collabo.

    my favorite Big rhyme

    Uhh, I dreams filthy
    My moms and pops mixed me with Jamaican Rum and Whiskey
    Huh, what a set up
    Shoulda pushed em dead off, wipe the sweat off
    Uhh, cause in this world I'm dead off, squeeze lead off
    Benz sped off, ain't no shook hands in Brook-land
    Army fatigue bring fatigues, the enemies
    Look man, you wanna see me locked up, shot up
    Moms crotched up over the casket, screamin BASTARD
    Cryin, know my friends is lyin
    Y'all know who killed im filled im with the lugars from they Rugers
    or they Desert, dyin ain't the ? but it's pleasent
    Kinda quiet, watch my ? bring the riot
    Giving cats the opposite of diets
    You gain thirty pounds when you die no lie, lazy eye
    I was high when they hit me, took a few cats with me
    ? , I need the company (uh-huh)
    Apoligies in order, to T'Yanna my daughter
    If it was up to me you would be with me, sorta like
    Daddy Dearest, my vision be the clearest
    Silencers so you can't hear it
    Competition still fear it, ? don't ask me
    I went from ashy to nasty to classy, and still


    my favorite Pun rhyme

    Ay yo I shatter dreams like Jordan, assault and batter your team
    Your squadron'll be barred from rap like Adam & Eve from the garden
    I'm carvin my initials on your forehead
    So every night before bed you see the "BP" shine off the board head
    Reverse that, I curse at the first wack ? with the worst rap
    cause he ain't worth jack
    Hit him with a thousand pounds of pressure per slap
    Make his whole body ? back, watch the earth ?
    hand him his purse back
    I'm the first Latin rapper to baffle your skull
    Master the flow, ? be swearin I'm blacker than coal
    Like Nat King, I be rappin and tounge's packin
    The ones, magnums, cannons and gatling guns
    It's Big Pun! The one and only son of Tony... Montana
    You ain't promised manana in the rotten manzana
    C'mon pana we be mob rhymers
    Feel the marijuana, snake bite, anaconda
    A man of honour wouldn't wanna try to match my persona
    Sometimes rhymin I blow my own mind like Nirvana
    Comma, and go the whole nine like Madonna
    Go try to find another rhymer with my kinda grammar

    Lol stop what?? I mean you can try to flow and sound like Big, but no one can do it the way big did it, if anything its easier to mimmick Pun's style than Big, not only that they had the same amount of time in the game, do you really want to compare albums?? FOH Big took it to another level, Pun is top 15 but you need to stop it with the dickriding, just because he rapped faster doesnt mean hes better
