This guy aint no crip, and I'm 100% sure on that because he doesn't type like a crip, I know crips, and that fool is not a crip.

Pun had one hot album which might be better than murda muzik so those two are interchangeable.  A case can be made for either one.  The production on CP isn't touching the infamous and hell on earths production.  And P in his prime is quite possibly a top 5 emcee of all time.  As good as lyricist Pun was, very few could paint pictures with lyrics the way P did when he was a dope.  the Infamous is an all time hip hop classic.  Stop trying to downplay that.  "Rock you in the face stab your brain with your nose bone "  >>> half ya list.

the infamous has some classics

eye 4 an eye, survival of the fittest (and 2) etc.


but Big Pun SHITS ON mobb deep and their 6-out-of-10 lyrical skills.  i love mobb deep cuz they still run with Majesty from the Live Squad (and ofcourse i helped run live-squad.com) but some people really over-rate them

I'm hard to talk to, if you live I probably faught you stalked you
where you walked to at night, caught you then tried to extort you
New York niggaz is trigger happy, got Pataki scared
This town ain't big enough for both of us AND I AIN'T GOIN NOWHERE
There it is, plain and simple like Jigga my game is mental
While slow niggaz better know I blow their brains out they temples
I'm into black magical torture romantic dramatical author
Compatible with the average New Yorker
A fast talker, like Tony when he gassed Sosa
The masked enforcer, out for the cash and the cho-cha
Smash the coca, bottle it up watch the fiends gobble it up
If I roll up, you do what?  Swallow the stuff
I don't give a fuck anymore, I'm only twenty-four years old
and I've already broken every law

I'm horrorcore, this is for the heads
Runnin up in your crib, knot if you still hot in under the bed

LMFAO @ P in his prime being 6/10 LMFAO.  You officially have NO CREDIBILITY.  The infamous having a few classics LMFAO.  This calls for a spin off thread.... the Infamous vs Capital Punishment.

peep those lyrics and tell me P and his simple rhymes can compare


P is all about his voice and flow...but listen to Eye 4 an Eye and hear NAS rap...that's lyrical skill

P and his simple rhymes... you have ZERO credibility now.  And a lot more goes along with being a good rapper than being a good lyricist which P was.  And P was better in those areas than Pun


Yo
My empire strikes with the strength of poisonous snakes
My entire unit loaded up with snake niggas that hire stakes
We pull off a high stakes, great escapes, expand, shift team downstate
Dreams are growing over and my son'll live great
Little man I'm plannin to enhance your mindstate
The rebirth, a nigga who lived an ill life
The one before me was of an even more trife
My understandin, I'll raise you with precise plannin
and put you on to the whole game of this planet
But I gotta survive in order to follow thru plans to live lot-o
Me and my lil' getgo, any man tryin to stop us he get wet-o
He couldn't withstand the snake bite, there is no hanky
Don't you put your hands too close and try to approach
I won't snap at you I'm goin for throats
and when you feel my bite 'cha sing high notes
I peeped you from deep and then you got cut throats
My formulae-I live life do or die
Stare into the eyes of a deep wiseguy
Prodigy turnin niggas to protoges
My protege I advise ya ass to make way
Make way...for fully-auto gun spray
You're small prey, I'll easily bait and trap yea
This man is half mad scientist-half sane
Creative rhyme labryinth like poisonous cannabis
Here take a toke of this daily rare roackalist
Overpower y'all, tiny noise like locust
Like sunlight thru a magnifying glass I'll focus em
Burn a hole straight thru ya brain and leave ya open (Oh shit!)
and let the venom soak in
You start sweatin and goin thru convulsions from dope shit I write
Leavin niggas stuck, I let spit
Trapped up in a web of a nigga that's sick
I'll wrap you up in cocoon, you caught up in the midst
As dangerous as risky business fuckin with this
Contender number one I put you on top of the list
You're the best challenger so far I'll give you this
But peep this (what?) fatal shots that soloplex
Man down, now who dares to go next?
Like General Monkmonk orders to chop necks
I send a message to my whole clique to bomb shit
Atomic, no time for calm shit
We hyperactive and it's time for Vietnam bit
Ya whole alliance gets single handedly bomb-ded
Take heed to the apostle's warning
Word up!


Yea P wasn't a good lyricist  ::)

The Big Picture isn't an album. It's a posthumous collection of Big L songs.
