    I remember Eminem talking about how 2pac wouldn't be down with Ja Rule. Maybe not but does Eminem really think 2pac would respect him? Eminem is a clear misogynist and 2pac was really against that. I think 2pac would see Eminem as an impostor to the art of hip hop. While 2pac used it as an outlet to send messages, Eminem destroyed that and used hip hop to spread hate. 2pac would not respect him and would most likely be very vocal about it.

    Discuss.

    nah
    Em made hip-hop bigger and everyone has to respect the underdog winning.

    The current goats respect Em I don't see why Pac wouldn't

    That's actually a really good point. We'll never know if he would've liked him or not. Possibly not for the reasons you said, but maybe he would've given him a chance because of the Dre co-sign, etc. Snoop seems to accept Em because of Dre, but they've never really been friends or worked together. I think Pac would've been the same way.

    I've said this before but yeah Em and 2pac likely would have feuded at some point had he lived to see Em's rise to fame. They both had pretty opposite mind sets. I just don't think Pac would have appreciated some crazy white boy who raps about killing/raping his mother taking over the hip-hop scene. Not to mention Dre and Pac had issues already as it is.

    This thread has no serious goal and does not make sense. Both are in my top 5. Misogynie has always been part of Hip Hop, Tupac himself had serious misogynistic content ( contradictional to 'Keep your head up' and let's not talk about his alleged sexual assaults towards women so knock it off)
    Also I'm pretty sure that if somebody like Rakim respects Em, Pac would do so too.

    Also Em globalized Hip Hop and has some of the strongest messages ( Sing for the moment,Hailie's song, Rock bottom, it goes on and on ). Close thread

    Yes, there's misogyny throughout hip-hop but Em took it to a whole other level. There's a distinct difference between referring to a women as a b---- and calling all women sluts lol which is the type of s--- Em did/does. Not to mention Pac's ego was huge. Seeing Em rise to the type of stardom that he had or maybe even bigger, I don't think he would have liked.

    Pac was still cool with Suge up until he died. I think there would have been a Pac/Suge vs Eminem/Dre feud.

    Are gonna act like 2pac wouldn't diss Eminem after the racist tapes came out? No one else disses Em because they can't match up.. Pac could end his career.

    Yea, but Tupac had balls and was a very outspoken dude. I've wondered the same think and i also believe Pac wouldn't like Eminem. But we'll never know.

    The racist tapes came out in like 2003/2004 I think, and Eminem was f---ing BIG at that time
    And I don't think Pac could've ended his career lol. Eminem/Pac beef would've been a massacre between both of them

    No he wouldn't because Tupac was intelligent. Attacking someone over something they said in the heat of the moment at 16 years old is the opposite of that. That's why nobody attacked him, neither Nas or Jay- Z. And let's not forget that Nas adressed this.

    Also, yes both Em and Pac have huge egos but I don't see any reason for them to beef, if anything they would've made amazing art together.

    Do you remember the time when Pac almost swung at Bone Thugz for using the word "THUG" in their title? Yeah, I highly doubt he'd not get in his emotions.

    Eh.... Pac is to emotionally invested in his beliefs. He'd try to go straight at Em and knowing the type of person Em was in the early 00's he wouldn't have taken the feud seriously. He would have poked fun at pac and used clever/witty little one liners in random songs to poke fun at him. Kind of like how he handled Canibus.
