    Both of them suck.

    Tupac and MJ were only known AT ALL after their deaths.

    One was a freak, one was a freak of the industry. I liked Tupac in his day, but he's been way overrated since his death. MJ, on the other hand, was a legend before he was dead.

    I'm so confused as to why Thriller is the greatest selling album, by far, of all time if nobody knew Michael till after he died. :confused:


    Tupac pretty much the only rapper I'll listen to but I gotta give the vote to MJ.

    Pac hands down.

    Michael Jackson was not even a top 50 receiver when he was playing and you're trying to compare him to Pac?

    smh

    Well, I don't know.

    Michael isn't the most popular because he has the most talent, but because he had the most commercial appeal...Madonna is a better dancer, and Pac is a better performer.

    Michael just happened to be a more marketable product.

    Pac rapped about life, he had lyrics, he made a difference..
    Michael entertained, and was REALLY good at it up until he decided to go full-r****d/gay..

    it's Pac in a heart beat for me, but I can see how some people would take MJ ..

    Why would anyone care who can dance better when they're listening to a CD/MP3?

    I would take 2Pac over MJ anyday.

    Michael made a difference on a GLOBAL scale, No doubt about it. Alot of his music is as real and deep as it gets...

    I agree.

    Tupac has great impact on hiphop society and was a great person. I have respect for MJ but

    Me against the world all day.
