the only way to be impartial is to not be familiar with their music. If you have heard them then you undoubtedly would have some opinion.

The point of my comparisons were to show places where ICP excel over 2pac to solidify their place as hip hop and as legends in hip hop. However, I should know that you're just an elitist try hard that will never accept anything that you don't like. Especially something that was culturally hated when got in to hip hop. Like, you're the type of dude that tries to understand Coltrane to appear cultured rather than having a true appreciation or love for the art.

now you're making spurious assumptions
I tried to like the songs you posted. I largely didn't.
I have tried to like jazz artists like ornette Coleman and sun ra. I don't. But I do like Coltrane. The same motive was behind trying to like all of them. But at the end of the day either i like it or I don't.

If you truly think that then you don't understand hip hop culture at all or his impact. Which is like, why am I even trying to take you seriously then?

so explain to me what I'm missing. What's great about him exactly?
