But Pac will always beat anybody when it comes down to subject matter and impact. Pac rapped his shit from the pit of his stomach. Hov's genius comes in with how quick he can make a song. Whether it's a hit or just an album cut. If it took Big an hour to think of the rhymes in his head. It take Jay maybe 30 minutes. They all have their own separate super powers.
