Both were managed by diddy
Both had very similar delivery
Both had very similar weight
Both had classic albums (Biggie - Ready to Die, Ross - Deeper Than Rap)
etc
Discuss.
Trilla>>>>>>>>Deeper Than Rap -
RTD > Ross Career
LAD > Ross Career
Biggie's cut and paste albums > Ross Career
Biggie's Callabos and Demo > Ross Career

sorry but TI being the next Jay-Z (or the southern equivalent) is more valid than this....

TI already has a better collection of albums than Jay -
This I agree with...young_reezy wrote: »if you mean the new big fat phoney, then yes... -
This is so direspectful to the dead. Ross at first was trying to make his own lane but teaming up with Diddy only makes this comparsion somewhat a reality. Ross should focus on being real with himself before we start comparing him to a legend. IMO no but with his current actions he looks like he wants to try to be the next Biggie.

If you mean the upgrade on a meal in the Wendy's drive thru, then yes.
If you mean lyrically and flow wise.
HHHHHHHhhellllll No! -

I strongly disagree with this. You see this ya'll? ^ ^ This is what's wrong wit the rap game also. Crazy fans that think crazy thoughts. No wonder all the other generas of music have passed Rap in appeal. Because WE HAVE BECOME DELUSIONAL. delusionazation leads to a loss of reality and the reality is....Swag dont ? rap for you. You think this guy is better than a legend in the game because his swag is cool?????? WTF? GTFOH wit dat ? !!Swagger will never upstage talent. I havent heard one ross verse that can compete with either verese from Big's on the "Victory" track let alone all the legendary freestyles, song stealing feats yada yada yada. New boyz got swagger too but I dont hear nobody saying they better than EPMD that's just ? !! Watch a battle on 106 N park once in a while and you'll also see whats wrong wit rap. Judges that know nothing pickin guys to win batlles talkin about
..... "yeah man, the champion/challenger just got all that swagger and the swagger was on point" ....Neverminding the fact that one or both ? iz wack sometimes. And by the way, where was all that swagger when 50 was ebarrassing the bastard!?? -
no way jose

He is very much the New Biggie. And no he is not Biggies replacement at all or mean he has to be on the same level as Big. He just fills that area like Big did, Big man talking flashy.
Chances are if the internet were around back in the early 90's you people would find some way to break down the GOATs of this genre like you do now. -
ross is nice but in no way in hell is the next biggie

So if i was a fat ? rapper talkin bout some fly ? ......I'd be the next Notorious B.I.G?
Wow. I can't believe people are comparing Rick Ross to Biggie. The ? is wrong with you people? -

Big had haters while he was alive so of couse he would had haters if he lived. But that doesn't matter cause he died with the Crown. Biggie is considered one of the GREATEST EVER off 2 LP's. Ross in on his 4th an he's not even considered in the Best of the South. The comparsion is weak and done for marketing purposes. Nobody will be biting Ross lyrics in the future where as Big's lyrics have been bitten every single year since his death. Ross lacks the Impact to be put in the catagory of a Biggie. Big's singles had more impact than Ross career:
Port of Miami - Gold
Trilla - Gold
Deeper than Rap - Gold
= 1.5 Million
Biggie's Singles:
Juicy - Gold
Big Poppa - Platinum
One More Chance - Platinum
Hypnotize - Platinum
Mo Money Mo Problems - Platinum
Sky's the Limit - Gold
Playa's Anthem - Gold
Get Money Platinum
=6.5 MILLION
LOL @ Big's singles outselling Ross career. Yet he's the "New" Biggie? No. -
New Biggie in terms of aura...yes.
I don't really see the problem with that. -

"Aura"? Wrong, Biggie changed the game and shut the game down with his debut album. Ross Debut came and went. He doesn't even have Big's aura. There is nothing comparable about Ross and Biggie besides they were both Fat. Ross in his dreams still can't be the emcee Big was. -

Big's singles are outdoing most of hiphop right now so wats ur point?? U can't name too many rappers nowadays who can even go gold. I agree with the person who said Ross has the same AURA as Big because he does. I'm not saying Ross is the new Biggie but it's nice to have someone in hiphop who can finally fill that void
