snoop with dre during death row >>>>
I don't know. Snoop was holding things down from the time he wrote Deep Cover until Pac came on the scene. He had really changed the game with that laid-back delivery shit. I think people tend to overlook how talented the guy is.

I'm aware of both facts you brought up. Pac was around and doing his thing in those days but his name wasn't as hot as those associated with Death Row (i.e. Snoop and Dre). There were obviously rappers rhyming with a smooth flow before Snoop. Slick Rick was an obvious influence on young Calvin but I'd say it was Snoop's chemistry with Dre that a lot of the other producer-artist teams were trying to duplicate.
2pac didn't get extremely famous until Me Against The World, that's what Propelled him into one of the greats (later All Eyez and Makaveli would add to his legacy, along with all the countless docs and controversy and tracks). Even then, the west coast was held down by Snoop, Dre, Eazy, Ice Cube. But Dr. Dre and Snoop had the biggest thing back then cause of how ground breaking Doggy Style and The Chronic was. Everyone was trying to emulate them, you can even hear the influence on BIGs debut.
Pac is the GOAT, lets just get that out of the way.
EVERYBODY knew who 2pac was musically when "I get around" and "Keep Ya hEad Up" came outeveryone in hip hop knew who he was because of Juice + 2pacalypse + connections to Ed Lover, Live Squad and Digital Underground
Snoop had up to 100 extra (approx.) more than 2Pac in the Vaults. It doesn't matter though, as WIDEawake can only release 13 previously unreleased ones of 2Pac's, but can release a lot more of Snoops
