Nah, he will. Just because the only rappers most of these poster's top 10 list doesn't include Kane. Doesn't mean he wouldn't give Ra the B.I. -
lemme come in n shut this ? down, for starters we all kno that RA started a new way of rapping with multi syllbic rhyming and different rhyme schemes n ? but u lying to yourself if u say big couldnt compete with ra. for 1 i think biggie was more complete than ra as far as skills go he had a better flow better story teller and had more quotables than prolly any other rap artist with only 2 albums.RA only was a better lyricist but lacked charisma. i grew up on this rap ? n i even remember older heads arguin sayin that ra wasnt even the best in his era kane was better. now lets stop this ? cause everytime i come to the reason ? is always comparin biggie to someone just to hate for no reason. word to fazeem.

Well, it's clear that Rakim is the superior talent. I mean, it almost seems like the equivalent of asking who's better...Prince or Justin Bieber? See the ridiculousness in that comparison? Skillset is just too Black and White of a topic to even touch, so there's no point in even going there. Rakim wins that one by default.
Now impact is something different, as both have been influential. Biggie was clearly influenced by the ? MC himself. And the same rappers that Biggie influenced, Rakim also influenced.
Rakim wins. -
Why Rakim & Big?

I'll take biggie. I'd rather listen to his 2 albums on repeat than all of Rakim's ? consecutively

Actually B.I.G. was influenced by Kane, G-Rap, & I dunno how the hell Heavy D, but Rakim is better tho. Big just had a better flow.

I'm not even sure where to begin you seriously know nothing about hip-hop.
1. I didn't mention tupac but since you brought him up he metioned Ra as one of his favorite rappers ( I think even his favortie rapper) and a major influence on him.
2. Grandmaster Flash was a DJ not a rapper, soooo....yeah
3. Go listen to rap prior to 1986 then listen to Rakim then everything after. Matter of fact I'll help you out.
These two came out in 1985 this dropped in '86 notice the difference.

well wht i meant by originated is he's the first one to pretty much invent flow as we kno it, and i didnt talk about pac at all. rakim's influence on rap is far superior to biggie's cuz rakim literally originated the way that biggie rapped. and i agree with what ur saying he completely changed the way rap worked. idunno why u said i mentioned something about pac thoI'm not even sure where to begin you seriously know nothing about hip-hop.
