Big stayed in his lane topic wise. True he could switch up his flow but he stayed talking about the same shit. That's why more people love Pac. He was more relatable. Pac got more material I like but he also released more material. Plus Big came up when NYC was on that mafia don shit and that kinda boxed him in topic wise. Going back to those records during that mid 90s era, that mafioso stuff messed up New York rap. Sure you got your OB4CL but you mainly got some albums that was just cool for the moment.
