Evidence Says Jay Z Has Surpassed Nas

There has always been, and there will always be an argument on who is a better rapper between Jay Z and Nas. I have always liked that the argument is always like 50/50...like half think Jay is better, and the other half people in Hip Hop feel Nas is better. If they weren't formidable opponents, then there would never have been a beef between them, and it wouldn't have been as interesting as it was. Evidence (member of the hip hop group, Dilated People) was on B Real's Smoke Box show recently, and he got talking about the whole Jay Z and Nas comparison thing. He said he always felt Nas was better at the beginning, but that Jay Z has surpassed Nas right now. 





"To me, Nas is one of the most gifted rappers of all time. From God though. Not from what he made of it. My man Planet Asia is the same way. They just got that shit on the mic. For me, I look at early Jay Z work and I don't see that God-given thing. [B-Real: He had to work on it] And God-damn-did-he. And look what he turned it into…I think Jay Z surpassed Nas at a certain point. It’s debatable, but at least it’s debatable... Maybe Nas is sharper than Jay Z right now. Maybe because Nas is on some b-boy shit. But Jay Z [may be] so powerful. It’s a debate.”






The main reason why I wasn't a Jay Z fan from the beginning was that I thought he was a basic rapper, so I understand what Evidence was saying at the beginning of his statement. And yea, it is also true that Jay Z worked on his craft. Even-though I was on Nas's side 100% during their beef in 2001, I couldn't deny the fact that The Blueprint was a masterpiece. I think that was Jay at his peak. In my opinion, that is his best album ever...and he got to that level by consistently working on his craft, unlike Nas who came in the game with a bang. Right now, in 2014, I enjoy what each of them contribute to Hip Hop, I don't compare them anymore. They the gods of rap right now. 

Proof That Tupac Slept With Faith Evans

Tupac's greatest weapon when he was beefing with Biggie was the fact that he had managed to sleep with Faith Evans after she and the late Notorious B.I.G had gotten married. That's why he started 'Hit Em Up' with the words..."I ain't got no murdafucking friends, that's why I fucked your bitch you fat murdafucker." Everyone took Tupac's words as the real deal, but many years after Pac's death, Faith Evans started claiming in interviews and in her book that she never slept with Pac. Well, the past will always come back and haunt you.










There is a lady by the name Natasha Walker, who was heavy in the industry back in the mid 90s. She used to date Dr. Dre, was a backup singer at Death Row Records, and was also one of Tupac's closest friends while he was alive. In a recent interview that can be found on Tupac Forum Channel on Youtube, she spilled the beans on what really transpired between Tupac and Faith Evans.








According to her, Faith Evans had been kicked off a tour cos Puff Daddy (Diddy) was giving her her payments in bits, and she couldn't take it any longer, and they had been a fallout between them. Coupled with the fact that her husband, Biggie was cheating on her a lot at time, she went back to West Coast (LA to be precise), and one night at a nightclub...






'She was like "I'm broke" and I was sitting on the couch and was like "Girl you broke?" "I'm broke...I got no money." And that's when she starts telling me about the tour...Actually they kicked her off the tour and she came back here broke as hell. I said "girl, you are Faith Evans with the number...lemme, girl I'm gone make a call." So I call my buddies and em...they worked at Century City Club, they had a big Ahh! All these big clubs around. And they said "Yea, we'll hire her. We'll get her some G's now." So I got her hired all these little clubs that week. Now...After that she was all happy and stuff.'






Then she got into the main gist.

'Tupac...cos me and her were sitting by each other (at a club) and Tupac came and sat in-between us. And I was like, okay, and then she (Faith) put her leg in-between Tupac's legs...like on top of his leg like, I said "Uh!" Then he started rubbing her leg. And so...after somehow, later on, me and Pac are alone and I say "Pac are you...What tha fuck is this?" He was like "Yea, I got that bitch. I got his bitch sucking my dick." I was like "What the hell." He said "yea, this ain't nothing, this ain't nothing, I'm showing him." I'm like "Okay." Uhm! That's how all that came about. Now, she a liar. She's a liar...Tupac said he fucked her, she sucked his dick...that's true, he got with her. That's true."'
