CommonCommon without a doubt. Pac is profound of course, but lyrically, flow, delivery, ComSense wins.
-
CommonWhen you talk about lyrical you're referring to the rapper's ability to express deep personal emotion or observation.
-
TupacSo common can paint a picture lyrically like Pac

He can; but that comment was a general statement. A lot of folks seem to think lyrical or lyrically deals with the complexity of the lyrics (think Hovi Baby or Inspecta's verse on Triumph). It doesn't. A DMX is a lyrical rapper, his emotions poor out from his songs. -
CommonGoing with Com Sense even though its tough.
Common: B-87
Pac: B-85

Tupac*Can't recite one Common Lyric"
If he was such a good rapper, his music would find people... bottom line.
Can recite PLENTY of Tupac lyrics, and I was not a fan, never bought one Album
/thread -
TupacIt'd be like asking who's a better running back, Barry Sanders or some ? in the CFL...
if he was THAT good, he'd be playing in the major leagues -
CommonI'm going with Common for longevity proven while staying consistent.... Tupac is the man but don't sleep on Com
-

Got love for Pac, but come on:
-
CommonSome of you ? just think its impossible to be better than Pac. ? disgusting
-
Common
Shut up ? -
Common"In front of two-inch glass and Arabs I order fries-
Inspiration when I write, I see my daughter's eyes-
I'm the truth, across the table from corporate lies-
Immortalized by the realness I bring to it-
If revolution had a movie I'd be theme music-
My music, you either fight, ? , or dream to it-
My life is one big rhyme, I try to scheme through it-
Through my shell, never knew what the divine would bring to it-"
You bastads. -
TupacI forgot about 1999 common still wack as ? doe
-
CommonAs much as I respect Tupac, I'm gonna have to go with Common on this one. He has the lyrical complexity, flow, and depth of content that Tupac did not have.
-
CommonWhy are people finding it bad that people find common a better rapper or voting for him
Im a Pac fan but as someone said dont sleep on commonSo common can paint a picture lyrically like Pac
Got love for Pac, but come on:
Great songs
Invocation was one of the first songs I heard by him. -
I can't vote. These are 2 of the greatest to ever do it.
-
TupacLol....whats funny is that i always thought of common as a poor mans tupac..
just more technical and his style was always more subtle and backpacker friendly...while tupac was more abrasive and mainstream
So im not surprised to see common so close here...but the answer is pac easily
Pacs delivery and flow are unquestionably better imo and his lyrics resonate better with listeners...
Common is on point...hes dope at everything but really really great at nothing...his biggest quality is his instantly recognizable voice. Over dilla/kanye/no id beats of course he sounds great....
But pacs presence on the mic was just so big and his lyrics were so potent...u gotta give him this
-
CommonToss up here.
-
CommonThe agenda's some of you ? 's be tryna' push
Ain't no way in hell Pac is a better Rapper than Common -
CommonThis is tough. Especially since ive been listening to the 7day theory on repeat the last three days . But ima go with common
