Greatest Of All Time IMO should excel in all these terms compared to the majority.

Skills - Lyrics, flows, charisma, voice, subject matter, creativity, etc.
Albums
Impact
Longevity

I never said it was the most important but it helps in determining a G.O.A.T. IMO.

2Pac - 5 years is long enough.

The Notorious B.I.G. - His impact on the industry in three years has been larger than most M.C.'s ever achieve in their whole careers.

'Pac... '91 through '96... 6 albums... 3 classics... 4 multi-platnum albums... bi-coastal respect... unquestionable talent... great lyrist, but his content and story-telling over shadow that... flows nicely... unmatched charisma... voice is very powerful and moving... the greatest subject matter rapper ever, no questions... creative in that he can have many different delieveries and stories for the samething, yet rarely raps on the same thing, always new... Impact, well people still think his alive, and refuse to believe otherwise... Longevity... they are still releasing albums that still go multi-platnum... any other arguments why 'Pac is not up there in the argument for G.O.A.T.

Aint no overrating of 2Pac going on............M Dogg's post was 100% on point...

Oh, and M Dogg, Pac actually has 6 multi-platinum albums now, if you include his post-humous albums [MATW, AEOM, Makaveli, R U Still Down, UTEOT, and Greatest Hits], and his other 4 remaining albums are all either gold or platinum [2Pacalypse Now, Strictly, Thug Life, and Still I Rise]. :)
