Life After Death ain't any more overrated as a "classic album" than All Eyez On Me is. Big was making major waves before he died so your argument really don't hold much weight to me but you've said more ridicilous things on this board so it's all good.
All Eyez on me was also greatly overrated, but if you cut out all the fillers from both double LP's AEOM is quite a bit better then RTD
see the thing is Life After... is a classic becasue Jay-Z is still making money off that formula and so is 80% of rappers out their now, before that album there wasnt any one rapping over fruity 80's pop samples and doing R&B remixes to hype thier albums and relevancy. BIG did that granted Dre & Snoop may have started it but Bad Boy perfected it (whether it lead to better music after Life After & No Way Out is not the case) I agree its hard to say where Big would be now he didnt have much material to judge but he was the greatest to me at being univeraslly dope...Life After Death = literally every rappers formula for an album these days...thats why Makaveli & was dope too because it was dirty unapologetic and said fuck radio, and fuck everybody who aint down it was completely opposite at the time...
