You mean to tell me the rapper that wrote this (and other songs like this) back in 95 couldn't float over Doin' It? :heh:

"...as I flow with the Junior M.A.F.I.A.
I don't know what the hell's stoppin' ya
I'm clocking ya, Versace shades watchin' ya
Once ya grin, I'm in, game begin
First I talk about how I dresses in this
In diamond necklaces, stretch Lexuses
The sex is just immaculate from the back..."

not saying lyrically he couldn't do it. but because of the type of song it was (maybe they would've changed it up) it may not of been for him

It wasn’t shytty. And def wasn’t the worst song. U think that shyt was worse than “another”?

And Player Hater which was atrocious.

have no idea how Puff convinced him to record that bullshyt and I wouldn’t be surprised if BIG didn’t want it on the final track list and Puff added it himself.

then Mase doing something similar with Jealous Giy was :hhh:

They wanted it to be flipped with this beat. This is a classic but imagine Biggie rapping to this shyt. lmao.


Would have had the potential to be 20x doper and would have been the "What's ya phone #" of his catalog, which is a dope ass song to me minus the skit.

LL's version was a lot better IMO, especially the beat. IF was different enough to be sope during that time. RIP Big but it almost seems like he was on some troll shyt with that joint. Can almost say the same for I shot ya, even though I know that wasn't the intent. Trying to look at it from a West coast/Death Row perspective, I can see how those two songs could seem like taunts. So fukkin' sad.

Isn't Biggie's version using someone else's beat?

Is it Ice Cube's what can I do exactly?

They both sample Zapp.

LL takes this one for me.

This thread is bringing out hip hop.
