One of my favorite Minnesota beats, always wanted to hear Big on more of his beats...I think the only other one he rhymed on was this and it didn't "officially" drop either



Recorded this joint off the radio, when I was a kid.

Stretch used to ALWAYS play this track! Still one of my favorite B.I.G. features.

Minnesota said he called B.I.G. and asked him to look out for him with a quick verse for this. He said he was supposed to be on Life After Death too, but it didn't work out.

it was this year that i realized "Think BIG" wasn't officially released, that it was a song like "Analyze this" that was floating around in the internet but never released on any album :ohhh:

"Analyze This" actually dropped on Shaq's album.

But they took Nas off, changed the name of the track to "No Love Lost" and had Jay on the track instead.

yeah you're right, but i remember for years people we're thinking that it was a fake collab and that Nas's verse was taken from another song. Glad shaq released it properly last year though

That was on Trackmasters.

They produced and recorded that while working on IWW with Nas, and for whatever reason, took him off the track, lol. Jay is my guy, but I always liked Nas better on that track. Hook was perfect too! Lord Tariq was writing so much heat at the time. Dope hooks for days!

With Biggie alive there is no "Hov"
lol ive read the same thing online about Big L so many times.... :usure:

but like.. that doesnt even make sense! :mindblown: big L got shot like six months after Hard Knock Life came out, jay was going supernova either way

however, i think jays music would be a lot BETTER if L and BIG had lived. he definitely wouldn'tve gotten away with those austin powers quotes :scusthov:

prolly wouldn'tve ever been a war between jay and nas either :patrice:

i could almost see them teaming up a la rae/ghost to go at BIG!
