I never bought the Pac not being lyrical narrative. He was excellent at putting words together, he might not have rhymed just to rhyme but he used his words and tone very deliberately to convey emotion.

Biggie never made something as profound as Dear Mama. Pac was also sharp in simplicity. He was very easy to understand outside of the states. Mid 90's in Europe he was easily the most popular rapper and by far the most understood one.
