Who’s better: Tupac or Biggie? 

This seems to be the perpetual debate in the hip-hop community. It's no easy task to come up with the right answer. Depending on which coast you reside on...you may have an affinity for one artist over the other. 

In this short, but exciting episode of Obsessively Outspoken, we shed some light on the two iconic musicians and the legacy they left behind. They both had extraordinary careers in a very short amount of time. Their music and influence on the culture is still as impactful now as it was back then. We also take some time to look into the past and present battles between Nas/Jay-Z and Machine Gun Kelly/Eminem. 

Is beef and rap battles between MC's good or bad for the culture? 

Does it bring out the competitive spirit in a genre of music that started as a street sport of sparring from a lyrical standpoint? 

We would be totally remiss if we don't take a little time out to highlight two of the all-time greats like Kool G. Rap and Busta Rhymes. 

Enjoy!
