"When you gaze the greatest, we're not just talking about lyrics, we're talking about impact as well. There's only so many rappers that could write something hyperlyrical and then also come write 'California Love,' and 'Toss It Up,' and then go back and write 'Dear Mama' and 'Changes,' and then come back and write '2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted.'"
"Subway Takes began as a short-form video series where everyday New Yorkers shared controversial opinions while riding the train. As popularity grew, it began attracting famous guests and expanding beyond the five boroughs."
Subway Takes, a viral short-form video series hosted by Kareem Rahma, has expanded from New York City to San Francisco. The format features everyday people sharing controversial opinions on public transit, with Rahma responding with definitive binary answers. The San Francisco episode, filmed near Outside Lands music festival, features Vallejo rapper LaRussell asserting that Tupac Shakur is the greatest rapper of all time. Rahma initially disagrees but eventually concedes, mentioning Lil Wayne and Notorious B.I.G. as contenders. LaRussell argues that greatness encompasses both lyrical ability and cultural impact, citing Tupac's diverse catalog ranging from hyperlyrical tracks to accessible hits like California Love and Dear Mama.
