at this point I don't even care about the corniness angle

What matters that pac makes good music and ICP doesn't.

It's also a fallacy that you regularly implement when you don't really have an argument.

Nice ad hominem btw.

This is what we call an irrelevant conclusion.

Thank you

But I didn't strawman him... I never suggested he said ICP was better. I just said Tupac was.

Whatever you need to tell yourself to avoid disrupting the Tupac illusion.

Glad we agree that Pac is corny and that you happily listen to corny music just like me.

That was never my main distinction

When I said they sound like as bad parody I didn't mean they were too corny. I meant they sounded bad, and like an ill informed attempt at making rap.

Corny isn't even the problem. They sound like ****.
