Ohhhhhhhhhh do I really need to say to chill with the personal attacks, bickering, and Romper Room behavior that's been going on recently in here between a small handful of folks?

Motel 6 has a special this week - go get a room down the road if you want, but don't bring it here. Stay on topic, stay civil to each other, or stay out of the discussion. It's THAT easy.

Thank you.

BIG's verse from the Benjamins! PAC fans where you at? Show me sumthin other than curse songs and Dear Mama.

I been had skills, Cristal spills
Hide bills in Brazil, about a mil to ice grill
Make it hard to figure me, liquor be, kickin me
in my *******, uhhh, undercover, Donni Brascoe
Lent my East coast girl, the Bentley to twirl (uh-huh)
My West coast shorty, push the chrome 740
Rockin Redman and Naughty, oh where my kitty-kat
Half a brick of ya, in the bra, where her ******* at
And I'm livin that, whole life, we push weight (uh-huh)
**** the state pen, **** hoes at Penn State (c'mon)
Listen close it's Francis, the Praying Mantis
Attack with the Mac, my left hand spit, right hand
grip on the whip, for the smooth getaway
Playa haters get away or my lead will spray
Squeeze off til I'm empty, don't tempt me
Only, to Hell I send thee, all about the Benji's
What??

Straight fire!

Ya'll fans of east coast rap are the definition of haters! Pac has some great lyrics in most all his songs, I don't need to post them on here just so you guys can shoot them down. Regardless of who is better lyrically, PAC was a WAY MORE INFLUENTIAL a rapper than anyone who has ever touched the mic.

I like West Coast rap but East coast rap is all about the lyrics! From Rakin to KRS ONE! Lyrics make a great rap song. That's why ***** is still around after all these years. Don't get me wrong, I think Tupac was a beast. He was able to put all of his emotions into his music. He's definitely top ten He may not have a had great lyrics or flow but he brought so many other intangibles to the table. I just think BIG was better. But that's my opinion.

The East Rapper started the battle though. The West was banging the charts and the east didn't respect that. The East didn't respect the Westcoast. This is exactly what happen. Is it jealously or what?

YouTube - Papoose - Amazing Backwards Freestyle

This is one of my favorite freestyles, just having fun with it.

I still like both coasts though.
