Shaq said that Big’s original verse was even better, but was so raw and rugged that Shaq told him that he is trying to sell records to kids too. So Big changed it, but still kept it Brooklyn
B.I.G. number one definitely. Never had a wack verse or a song That was skippable. Lyrically no one better, many emulate. Made everything without writing.
Crazy thing is when Biggie first did his verse he went even harder than shit on some street shit but Shaq asked him to change it cuz it wasn't gonna get any radio play and Biggie obliged.
This was the jam back in the mid 90s I was about 14-15 years old when me and my cousin Vito was always spinning s.chicago blocks in the two tone box Chevy on thirties & Vogues with 4 12s kicker subwoofers 🔊 🔊 🔊 🔊 Beating up and down the blocks
Just so glad I grew up in the 80 and 90s Not today's shit music Music had meaning back then now it's all dumbed down I mean there are some great new rappers coming tho that are keeping real rap alive Mumble rap had it's day
Respect from Russia. Biggie forever. Pop Smoke forever. Can you react to Pop Smoke Christopher Walking? Also Biggie Nobody Till Somebody kills you need yo reaction too. His hidden gem
Like how you turn to pac and said that was hard lolll...pac saw potential in big from the start and knew big had amazing lyricism pac had problems with big realness and loyalty which is why he had no fear of big poppa but you would never hear pac say big had weak lyrics!!!
2pac knew biggie was hard. That's why when he wanted too join thug life. He told biggie no. U a solo artist. He taught biggie the format too being a great rapper. Its a video when they was cool. Biggie giving 2pac and stretch props for teaching him. He already had the rhymes
He never wanted to join pac. But they were cool. Plus biggie kept it a 100 with PAC but he didn’t wanna listen. None of what I say is speculation, I’m friends with many involved
