"BIG'S ONE OF THE BEST RAPPERS OF ALL TIME!!"CEASE: NAME ANOTHER RAPPER THAT'S GREAT AT EVERYTHING??

[@antrellhopkins3263]

His lyrics flowed like no other.. he touched all topics and painted a clear picture. His vocab and cadence was unmatched.

[@kingslymadu2188]

That was his mans....took him out of poverty. My father is the best dad in the world. I would hope others would say that about their Dad. Big was unbelievably dope especially the fact that he birth a lot of rappers and did it at a time where rap was incredibly simple both is influence and mechanics. Its like when the first commercial planes came out. There were planes before but nobody was tryna hop on a wright brothers product. He elevated a whole scene thats prevalent today.

[@modeone550]

BIG is my all time favorite, in my opinion he’s my best MCEEE. I was blessed to see him live. Who can tear a show down. No dancers no explosive back drops. Just him and the mic. He’s stage presence was phenomenal.

[@ez-duz-it]

Biggie’s “Fuck Me” interlude definitely was one of the best interludes for any album 😂 especially with the Jodeci playing In the background. We never got a Biggie and Jodeci song because Suge linked up with them and put them on The “Murder Was The Case Soundtrack” another classic. But once Puffy found out about this, he cut Jodeci off, thus him discovering 112, who made classics with Biggie, while Jodeci made classics with 2pac

Man I heard that shit in whiteboy John’s 83 4 door malibu he popped in the cassette tape like u gotta hear this as we went half on a nickel bag. It was polarizing. Especially the first time ya heard suicidal thoughts. He birthed more MCs than any other rappers.

Yeah man, Biggie was MY era, he was a RAPPERS RAPPER. No fillers, no fluff. Just heavy bars, delivery, cadence, and a seamless flow in every bar. I 13 Years old when Ready to Die released, I was 16 when Biggie passed. He was the SOUNDTRACK to my Golden Years. It's hard to believe his run was only 3 short years. Year's felt longer in the 90's.

I got into hip hop because of DMX and Will Smith(2 opposite spectrums I know). BIG was alive when I was doing that, but my parents wouldn't let me explore music like that yet. Especially after seeing that DMX cover art. I had to sneak that tape around lol. Once I was able to though, I couldn't stop digging. When I stumbled upon BIG....it took me a couple years of studying to understand how complex his rhyming really was. That man is 100% undebatable the one and only GOAT.

And even then after coming up of mc hammer , vanilla ice , wave a few short years earlier as a kid in Lagos Nigeria I knew the lyrics boice and style and sweet melody flow of notorious big was impeccable and incomparable to the light trash of mc hammer and vanilla ice commercial succes we used to listen to and learn dance steps to in the early 90s as kids. Jayz and Nas are my very admired artist on my top five but to compare them with big is so wrong .let's do it like this let's compare big jayz and Nas in the order of the two albums biggie released prior to his untimely demise, if we do it this way in comparison you will see that ready to die and life after death is far apart from both Nas illmatic and it was written and Jay-Z reasonable dought and Jay in my life time vol 1, if we wanna be sincere the top three list of greatest in view of ticking all the boxes and even including album sales then the list will go like this 1. Notorious big - ready to die , life after death 2. Nas - illmatic, it was written 3. Jayz - reasonable dought, in my life time vol one.

I’m a fan of the 90’s era, well the lyrics were controversial but the substance was there. It carries on now in different contexts but I can listen back and feel that “vibe”

[@Totmorgen0]

Big had probably the best flow in Hip Hop history

[@ez-duz-it]

Believe it or not my white friend burned me a CD with Ready To Die on it back in middle school, lol I listened to it and was blown away, even though I personally enjoy Life After Death, Biggie first album had the raw, grit and grime that his fans love him for

[@Rap.Revival]

Big was a legend!! WunTayk Timmy is great at everything. Big facts!!!

[@thomaswalker3059]
