Tom Hanks was ok in Big but it's not his best effort. I haven't heard of the other one.

My favourite hip hop was Public Enemy, NWA and Ice Cube, but out of Tupac and B.I.G, it's Tupac for the melodies and of course for his impressionable film appearances.

Juice and Gridlock'd especially

Tupac is more musical but Mr. Smalls is the best rapper.

I'm a bit of an Ol Dirty Bastard personally. Wu Tang all the way!

The longest overrated at least, like someone already said, the golden age was the 90's (I personally think late 80's to early 90's).

But I hate most metal since it became popular and the same happens when everything becomes totally commercialised. It just becomes generic, imaginationless market packaging.

im sorry i cannot agree my friend its take influences from every other genre by the way of samples (plagiarism) to produce something vaguely resembling a tune.

the earliest rap / hip hop commented on social injustices that was around at the time the garbage that is out talks about which birds got the biggest ass whose got the biggest car and how to get it by ill gotten gains.

Both great for diffrent reasons Tupac had raw emotion in his music and that set him aside from other rappers.

For me Biggie was the man best flow ever.

Ready to Die is a masterpiece and as someone said biggie was not commercially viable but you could not ignore his music if you listen to that genre.

[The Notorious B.I.G.:] First things first, I poppa! - Freaks all the honies! (uh-huh!) Dummies! (uh!) - Playboy bunnies, those wantin' money. Those the ones I like cause they don't get Nathan But penetration, unless it smells like sanitation. Garbage, I turn like doorknobs, Heart throb? Never! - Black and ugly as ever!

BIGGY - Was one of the best, if not THE best. He found a way of being funny through his lyrics.

Next best was / is Eminem.

I class these guys as modern day poets

If you havent seen 'Notorious' have a watch, you dont have to be a fan of Biggy or rap music to appriciate the story behind it.

Saw Ras Kass on stage with Xzibit about 12 years ago at the Leeds festival.

Both excellent.

Both under rated.

Mad Skillz is also worth a mention.

Shame I never got to see Biggie or 2Pac perform live.

I have to say I have seen a lot or rappers mentioned on this thread perform live.

Nas

Jay-Z

Guru

Common

Talib Kweli

Mos Def

Q Tip

Busta Rhymes was the best live performer venue was half empty as well wicked show. By no means the best rapper but his show was outstanding.
