If you're gonna laugh at 2pac coming from digital underground, it's no worse then where Dr Dre came from, and you gotta admit he's had a huge effect on hiphop. Everybody has a past.

Dr Dre was a member of N.W.A. Not only did he produce their records, he was also a featured member of the group. Tupac WAS a backup dancer for Digital Underground. I'm not saying that he didn't rise to the top, but to compare his early career with the early career of Dr Dre is wrong.
As far as "rap beefs", have you ever heard of anything more retarded? I haven't.

It's not unintelligent just because you don't know what I"m talking about. I wasn't referring to NWA, it's not like he started out of NWA, it was when he really first started! Sorry but you're the one that's wrong.
The group by the way was named: WORLD CLASS WRECKIN' CRU

In the future maybe say what is so uneducated, or at least point it out in the post flaming me. Appreciate it.

I've followed hiphop my whole life too, so of course I know who Rakim is, but what exactly did that post serve to the discussion, I do not know.
I'm done with this discussion, I guess I just don't know as much about hiphop as you guys. Although out of Bust, Aghama's , and my points, only mine have anything behind them.

I know you guys weren't really confused, hence the smart@ssness in it all. The "That guy s@cks" comment by me, doesn't really even demonstrate my point of him not being widely talked about or a "media darling" as you say, the "who the h@ll would know who that was with out 2pac" does.
Also, who said 2pac was a media darling, I just was stating he was more known, because he was much succesful, which I think is something to be proud of. If you do a search just on the message board alone, see who has had more said about them. If you seriously think KRS-ONE is a better rapper etc. then 2pac, then there is no point to argue. We have different tastes I guess.
Sorry for any arguing, I agree to disagree, at least we all like hiphop. Those rap wars are stupid, and so is fighting about them.

Hip-hop battles, when done right, are sweet. KRS vs Shan, Casual vs. Saafir, even LL v. Cannibus (v. Wyclef, eventually) each produced some sweet records (and one of the greatest on-air battles ever on Power 106 between Casual and Saafir).
But most of the other ones are just weak. Nas v. Jay- Z hasn't produced any standout tracks, which to me is the important part.

I said I was done and am.
One thing though, must be hard to get the last word against somebody who quit.
