Who would've adapted to the modern sound better, Tupac or Biggie?

    This is great. Wouldn't mind something similar for pac but this proves Biggie could easily rap over todays production, everyone should check this out tbh

    Biggie. A lot of these muthafuckas are still trying to dress like him in videos. The content is the same too. The only difference is the sound. Biggie showed he could cater to other regions ("Notorious Thugs", "Going Back To Cali").

    Funny that that's how it's hitting me too. I couldn't have predicted half this stuff.

    you're all wrong

    2Pac would slip into the trap style way easier than Biggie. Biggie was too good a rapper for today's style. Chanting/warbling over casio keyboard beats is 2016

    Reckon both would've adapted and excelled with today's production.

    Pac would've sold out tbh, he had already been somewhat forced to sell out with the whole Death Row West Coast gangsta rap feel of All Eyez On Me
