Blueprint 2: The Gift vs. Life After Death: Disc 2

[Asante1010]

This is a serious debate...very close to me. I'm doing homework listening to BP2 and this popped into my head. Quick intermission.


The Blueprint 2: The Gift
Hovi Baby - 5/5
Poppin Tags - 5/5
Excuse Me Miss - 5/5 [F&%# what you heard]
The Watcher - 4.5/5
F&#% All Nite - 4.5/5
I Did It My Way - 4.5/5
All Around the World - 4.5/5
Bonnie and Clyde - 4/5
A Dream - 4/5
The Bounce - 3.5/5
What They Gonna Do - 2/5

Adding up in my head...it's about: 46.5, the Gift is underrated averaging 4.23/5

Life After Death: Disc 2
Notorious Thugs - 5/5
Long Kiss Goodnight - 5/5
Youre Nobody - 5/5
SKy's the Limit - 5/5
10 Crack Commandments - 5/5
My Downfall - 4.5/5
Miss U - 4/5
Going Back to Cali - 4/5
The World's Filled - 4/5
Another - 3/5
Player Hater - N/A
Nasty Boy - 1/5


Total score is 44.5 i think, averaging 4.05/5

The problem is that LAD has some tracks that are veeeeeery bad, then serious classics like 10 Crack Commandments and Notorious THugs, when The Gift is a lot more balanced. If I was to give out special 6/5 ratings, maybe LAD would win. What you guys think?

Exactly, but tracks like Nasty Boy or a disgrace

Life After Death Disc 2 by itself has some of my favorite songs of all time. meanwhile i wouldn't lose no sleep if the whole damn Blueprint 2 album never existed.

Do you really believe Jay provided competition with his double? I mean you posted only 3 weak songs on Disc 2 for "Life After Death" after that all the songs are 4 Mics and above where as Jay has more weaker songs and doesn't have the level of Classics Big's has but just so you know:

Notorious Thugs - 5/5
Long Kiss Goodnight - 5/5
Youre Nobody - 5/5
SKy's the Limit - 5/5
10 Crack Commandments - 5/5
My Downfall - 5/5
Miss U - 4/5
Going Back to Cali - 4/5
The World's Filled - 4/5

= BETTER THAN THE ENTIRE GIFT AND CURSE OF BLUEPRINT 2

Big doesn't even need disc 1 to compete.

I hear what your saying but adding up the numbers.............

Thats why I was saying if I had a special 6 rating for classic tracks, Biggie would probably win

Are you serious? The least you coulda done was picked The Curse...this isn't even remotely close. The Gift has just as many wack tracks as LAD disc 2 btw.

[IronLung1985]

Life After Death, and its not even close.

I picked the worst disc of each. But yea...I'm dead serious. Maybe it's the mood I'm in or some next udnerlying foolishness...but the Gift was sounding real nice

[Mike Delorean]

I respect the threadstarters opinion but aint no way the Gift Cd is fukking with LAD disc 2. Notorious Thugs, Ten Crack Commandments, Sky's The Limit, Youre Nobody>>>>anything on the Gift CD.

BP2 is one of the finest double albums put together, only second to Bob Dylan's Blonde on Blonde Imo.
this isnt even a fair fight.

R.I.P. to the homie Big
