Little known fact: Bone Thugs recorded their verses before Biggie, who sat in the studio all day listening to the beat on repeat and composing his verse. He didn’t write anything down and after 5 hours he was ready to lay his verse, which he did in 1 take.

[@nphanor]

For real?

[@uninsulatedshrimp5518]

Bro if that's true that's wild.

[@AshDaniJack]

Bone forced Biggie to switch his flow. He had a verse...heard theirs...rewrote. his original flow would have never went this hard.

[@ABONE1]

Thats talent!!!!

[@UncleSwell707]

I definitely believe that. this was a whole different beat that biggie was accustomed to rapping on so I definitely think he listened to it listen to it before writing his verse. That's the main reason why he rapped totally different on this beat than on other songs, but he killed that shit.

[@Keezie27]

They all killed this! Period. One of greatest rap songs ever hands down.

[@alfredmcglothen6050]

Agreed!!!! Definitely. Biggie and Bizzy knocked their’s out in one take . Can’t believe Biggie matched Bone’s style and actually bested them with it . This showed in my opinion, he was definitely the G.O.A.T. I loved PAC as well , but as far as who was the best lyrically, and had the best presentation, hands down Biggie . PAC was more a storyteller and Poet . Big was a flat out lyricist.

[@Keezie27]

@@alfredmcglothen6050 I agree. Crazy how Big switched up his style to match Bone Thugs. I agree Pac was a poet and storyteller but I'd easily put Biggie up there with him in regards to storytelling. "Juicy" for example is the perfect song about going from rags to riches. Amazing storytelling. "Warning" is another example of Biggie's talent as a storyteller. Almost the entire "Ready to Die" album is an example of great storytelling. He was able to paint vivid pictures with his lyrics. That album was like a movie on wax. Biggie was a great storyteller.

@@E.ternalBTNH99 Man, I keep hearing this. I am now going to have to go check it out. I really didn’t even know that he had a new album out. I have been out of the loop, so to speak, when it comes to rap. I suppose I just kind of gave up when all this new era stuff started coming out and you can’t understand half of it. Not all of it is that way but a lot of it is nowadays. I actually listen to most all genres of music. I don’t do classical or religious music. Now, don’t get me wrong, I can listen to classical music, as it doesn’t bother me, but it’s just not my go to when I have unlimited content at my disposal. And I am not a religious person, at all, so that knocks religious music out. But anything else I can, and mostly do, definitely listen to. But I am definitely going to head over and check out his new stuff. Thanks for the recommendation. Stay strong and keep your head up, my friend!!! #ONELIFE #ONELOVE

[@mirandac8712]

When Bizzy got the call from Biggie he thought it was a prank. In fact, Biggie was so intimated by BTNH's talent he was unable to perform in their presence. After they left, he suspended recording for a few days to study their recordings.

[@christina12311979]

Biggie was versatile.

[@HatTheFatCat]

This track is awesome on so many levels. The four main verses are progressively faster and more violent, and follow down the chain of command in a typical street gang. Biggie talks about earning money, drugs, and womanizing - he's the captain/leader. Bizzy escalates that to substance abuse and cleaning up after criminal activity - he's the lieutenant. Krayzie ratchets it up to threat of violence and illegal armament - he's the sergeant. And finally, poor Layzie is the footsoldier on the front lines of the gang/turf wars, and he's the only one who has to personally deal with the act of murder (REDRUM), since everyone above him is only concerned with trash talk. P Diddy couldn't be more right when he admonishes Biggie "you know not what you do." (Gang leaders often don't appreciate the full impact of their criminal activity on their neighborhoods and communities.) He's on a higher level than Biggie, he's transcended thug life and become a rich media mogul, and plays God here.

Ed Gray BRUH lol he went the FUCK in

[@jethrotool4828]

Ed Gray I’ve always felt Bizzie and Krayzie were always battling it out for the craziest flow. Especially on East 1999

Apparently Bone Thugs spit their verses first and then Biggie studied how they did it and he successfully adapted his unique style to their flow. Amazing artists all of them! Really encourage people to watch Krayzie's interview and how this all came together.

[@technomage6736]

One of my favorite Bizzy verses!

I've listened complete song and biggie's starting, rhyming, flow is best part for me in this. You can say I don't understand Bizzie or Krayzie here but that doesn't change anything for me, Biggie killed this track for me.

[@zaddyprince1451]

youtube Bizzy interview. he stated Biggie had to study how to flow on this track cause the song is bone thug style. It really should have been bone thug feat. biggie

[@popz4470]

In alot of bone songs that have other rappers in them, they have to study bone thugs flow cuz their flow is so unique

[@zaddyprince1451]

popz4470 true

[@balladguitar910]

Wrong. He had to study BONE's flow. Not how TO flow. Words are powerful, learn how to use the proper ones.

[@DarkHallwayz]

deniz Biggie was definitely bigger but Bone Thugs were recognised for how unique their songs were and it was well known that any other rappers that featured on their songs had to study their flow because no one really done it before

[@ayeeye1524]

Niall Craig biggie name wasn’t bigger they had already come out with crossroads and had like seven top ten hits in a row by then that’s why biggie AND Tupac did the collaborations

[@sammysam2615]

True classic. This is what real hip-hop/ rap is. Putting in work on the mic and spittin from the heart

[@donnova21]

Tupac and Biggie Legends never die!!

[@HatTheFatCat]

Thanks for all the kind comments! I've made some minor corrections (thanks to those who pointed it out). P.S. Layzie's verse is my favorite, just for that The Shining reference...

[@zaddyprince1451]

Hasan Tawab in some parts of bizzy verse he is talking about the end time prophecy by using words like: "my messiah better get ready for armagedon, triple six = 666, shit expired & bless the child the ONE (Elohim/Christ) became a man, etc. Also, in the rap Bizzy pardons Martin Luther king cause in the last days there will be fighting & we know Dr. King was against fighting. You can google who wrote the lyrics and whoever wrote bizzy verse knew a lot about the bible. Lastly, bizzy does not say, "open and let them see we're real" he said, "open that last seal for real" which is in reference to the end of the world.

[@HatTheFatCat]

Zaddy Prince Maybe so. I know Bone Thugs have a lot of biblical references in their raps, especially in the 90s. I agree with your interpretation of triple six and Messiah bits, but Bizzy isn't pardoning Dr. King. He's asking for forgiveness, because he's about to engage in violent activity instead of nonviolent protest ("we ain't marching, we shooting"), and he knows MLK would disapprove of that.

[@zaddyprince1451]

exactly bro!!!!! pardon means Forgive.

[@zaddyprince1451]

Hasan Tawab my point exactly; pardon means the action of forgiving.

[@kevstrucking]

+Zaddy Prince I always thought the triple 6 reference was towards 3 6 mafia who they were beefing with

[@britneypalin2879]

This song never gets old

[@MrBrandonStar]

I’m from the year 3000 and this song still awesome

[@tyffaneelavely8087]

First off Biggie fkng kills it seriously. Like holy shiit, the man put all his energy into wanting to match their type of flow and sound. They all KILL this song. Bizzy is on fkng fire, the man is incredible, he is the tightest, off the charts rap flow, with the most unique voice. They all are. I feel like Layzie never gets enough credit. His flow is phenomenal, and i love his sound and style in every song. I love all of them. All so different from one another, but blend together in perfect harmony. Best rap song of all time. Thug Love is another killer one.
