I know the argument is that he only has two albums, so how can he be better than those with six or seven. But I feel like he did more with those two albums than anyone else has with their entire discography, Jay-Z included.

He could do every time of song, and do it better than whoever you think it's the nicest at it, or at least AS good. Storytelling? Check. R&B crossover shit? Check. Club joints? Check. Straight boom bap for the heads? Hell yes.

Big also has the benefit of not being around to tarnish his only legacy. Who knows what his career would've looked like had he not been killed. Would he be a mogul like Jay? A legend who's time has come and gone but he doesn't know it like LL? An icon with a super loyal fanbase but largely ignored by the mainstream like Nas? An act that tours and sells music based on nostalgia like Wu?

Who knows.

But he's the best to ever do it, IMO.
