    Me Against The World
    TS you stood a better chance comparing me against the world against Life after death. I think MATW beats that album too but not by as much as it beats ready to die. Ready to die is the knife thats being brought to the gunfight

    Ready To Die
    This is one of those threads that u can't even argue about which album the other person picks. I both classic albums but for me, personally, i like RTD.

    Someone just dropped a thread about exposure to ? in utero doing little to hinder success in comparison to poverty.

    There's probably a Somalian about to get his head chopped off in the name of Allah as we speak..

    But all rappers exaggerate, so I don't mind that line..

    both are classics, but BIG swung for the fences with his debut album, I feel like 2Pac had 3 albums under his belt before he released a certified classic, BIG on his first try

    Me against the world has too much trash on it.Lord knows,old school,death around the corner,temptation,me against the world,young ? ,can u get away all suck

    Ready to Die is a top 5 hip hop album



    With all this extra stressing
    The question I wonder is after death, after my last breath
    When will I finally get to rest through this suppression?
    They punish the people that's asking questions
    And those that possess, steal from the ones without possessions
    The message I stress: to make it stop study your lessons
    Don't settle for less - even the genius asks his questions
    Be grateful for blessings
    Don't ever change, keep your essence
    The power is in the people and politics we address
    Always do your best, don't let the pressure make you panic
    And when you get stranded
    And things don't go the way you planned it
    Dreaming of riches, in a position of making a difference
    Politicians and hypocrites, they don't wanna listen
    If I'm insane, it's the fame made a brother change
    It wasn't nothing like the game
    It's just me against the world


    ^^^^If that's trash you are not a Hip Hop fan.

    He only had 2 and his debut would of been one if Pac had beats and someone like P.F plus Diddy formed the formula/beats to help R2D up there.

    Dont take that clown serious Will. I stopped takin his ? with face value a long time ago. He will say anything just because he hates the westcoast. Just scroll past his shock post. that ? is a hypocrite too. He once thought he could get away with trollin Nas fans until I said ? that and went thru the archives and found a post will him sayin Nas was in his top 3 or some ? and waited for the next time he got on some "You nas groupies yada yada yada then I posted what he said. This ? aint to be takin serious. I bet he got 2 Pac posters in his room right now but will get in the reason and call him wack

    Ready To Die
    it came down to this for me- MATW is a top 10 album
    Ready to Die is top 3-5

    so im not mad. i wouldnt even bother arguing b/c its a reasonable choice. For me, the order of the top 10 is less important what it's in it. the order is all preference.
    its still only 2-3 albums ill even consider ranking above Ready to Die though

    Me Against The World hands down.

    Ready To Die was highly influenced by 2pac so your basically listening to 2pac since Big stole his style.

    "I dont wanna live no moe/sometimes I hear death knockin at my front door/I'm living everyday like a huslte/another drug to juggle/another day, another struggle"

    Thats hella 2pac right there. Come on son.

    Ready To Die is also a dope album BTW but it aint touchin MATW.

    ^^^ Did Brenda really have a baby??
    Did Scarface really sit in a room staring at candles
    Did Nas really pull a tech out the dresser
    Did Dave the dope fiend really shoot dope because he didnt know the meaning of water nor soap?

    Does Big really ? with ? that will kidnap kids ? em in the ass throw them over the bridge?

    The only 2Pac album worth a damn since all his others were average to below average.

    Both RTD and MATW are in my top 5 but I like MATW a lil bit more
