Biggie had one album prior to his death and it sold like 2M despite being released in the peak of global album sales. Half of its sales came after his death.

Why would the OP list MJ vs. Prince in the OP when they never had rivalries in their music, it was media based. As we've mentioned multiple times, you're having a hard time understanding the topic.  This is media based rivalries. 2Pac and Biggie had a bigger presence in media than Xtina vs. Brit.
Additionally as mentioned, the rivalry took both their lives, had documentaries, and spilled to other rappers which are more as to why it had a bigger media presence no matter 'how global!!111!' it was. |
I think you're under the false impression that a rivalry only exists if you put out a diss track.

No but apparently you did.
Answer this tho, what was Britney and Xtina's rivalry? how did their music rival the others? Did one reference the other? DId it have documentaries? Extensive news coverage? is it as iconic to pop as Tupac vs Biggie is to rap? i need to know.

They were the exact same niche. One focused on vocals, the other on dancing. They got tons of news coverage.
You can search them in 2015.

People were not getting pressed in Long Beach or Bedford Stuyvesant to run their Walkmans and test their allegiance. It was NEVER that real.

East Coast vs. West Coast was huge, sis. It's just that the girls in here don't know East Coast vs. West Coast wasn't just Tupac vs. Biggie.
