I always thought Hypnotize was doo doo. It’s catchy, but it didn’t fit BIG’s persona.

Doin It would’ve put him on another level and who knows how things might’ve turned out.

:francis:

LL still did a good job with it though.

:what: :what: :what: :what::what::what::what::what::what::what:


Hypnotize is possibly the greatest track of all time. …. Are you serious?

:patrice: I think BIG still did pretty good for himself even without this song.

Above the fray.
Puff outsmarted himself. In his mind, an up and coming producer wouldnt blow the opportunity to get a placement on such a high profile album from the hottest artist out . Would do wonders for his career.

Hats off to Chris Lighty for having a good ear for beats, and spotting the hit.

He said it was supposed to be Big's 1st single.

Imagining Hypnotize lyrics on that beat would make that song much better.

No doubt Biggie's flow would've been exquisite on Doin It. But I doubt he would've came up with the chorus, the theme, or the back-and-forth verses with the woman. All 3 of those things made the song classic too not just the flow.

Big would still be alive if he got that beat :troll:
