Beastie Boys vs N.W.A.
I enjoy them both. I enjoyed the videos posted by the OP very much. I'd never heard either song live.
Beastie Boys nailed it. N.W.A. was disappointing, only because the song was incomplete. Ezy-E's part got edited out, which I was looking forward to seeing.
Was surprised at N.W.A.'s audience. So subdued and seemingly not into it. That's head-banging, fist-flailing music! Maybe there was an unspoken thing at that concert where people thought it best to not want to draw attention to themselves. I mean, IDK.
Beastie Boys to me has always been a fusion of rock & hiphop. So to call their music the best hip hop is just inaccurate.
N.W.A. is like the rawest, purest form hiphop there ever was. They were like the Black Sabbath of rap. Like Sabbath, N.W.A. is just too much for many people. I get that.
Tupac made much better music and was much more talented. He was the best there ever was, in my opinion. Nobody can argue that.
