Pac certainly had more good albums, yeah, and was the more interesting character. I agree. But he doesn't have anything that can compete with Ready to Die.
Really, though, I'm more of a Tribe and Wu-Tang guy as far as '90s shit is concerned. Taking about classic albums, the first two Wu albums and the first run of solo projects is nothing but. And ATCQ's entire discography kills pretty much everyone else's (pre-Kanye). So that's where my hip-hop attention was really focused in that era.
Wu-Tang Forever is one of the only true rap double albums that feels like it needs to be a double album. Should have won that Grammy for sure, over both
No Way Out and
LAD.
