That sample

Bass knocks

Biggie's flow

Diddy brought his ad-lib A-game for it [take that. take that. HA!]


The video


Paying homage to DougEFresh/Slick on the hook

Gonna blast squeeze first ask questions last
That's how most of these so-called gangsters pass
At last, a nikka rappin bout blunts and broads
t*ts and bras, ménage à trois, sex in expensive cars
I still leave you on the pavement
Condo paid for, no car payment
At my arraignment, note for the plantiff
Your daughter's tied up in a Brooklyn basement (shh)
Face it, not guilty, that's how I stay filthy (not guilty)
Richer than Richie, till you nikkas come and get me

Playing at his funeral:

Yup. It goes hard on the sound system.

It's crazy at how "pop" that song sounded when it came out, but sounds so gritty now. Biggie just murders the flow and lyrics.

Without a doubt.

If you were to trim down L.A.D. to about 12-13 songs it would be a top 3 album all time.

 

[JuvenileHell]

Big's flow and delivery was immaculate. He could make the simplest shyt sound good, hence the quotables

The hook is still kind of pop, but it's not in a bad way. Biggie remains the standard bearer for "it's not what you say, it's how you say it." He could anything sound hot.

For sure. Dude's flow on this track is just amazing.

 

[Chief]

I can fill ya wit real millionaire shyt (I can fill ya)
Escargot, my car go, one sixty, swiftly
Wreck it buy a new one
Your crew run run run, your crew run run
I know you sick of this, name brand nikka wit
flows girls say he's sweet like licorice
So get with this nikka, it's easy
Girlfriend here's a pen, call me round ten
Come through, have sex on rugs that's Persian (that's right)
Come up to your job, hit you while you working (uh)
for certain, Poppa freaking, not speaking
Leave that ass leakin, like rapper demo
Tell them hoe, take they clothes off slowly
Hit em wit the force like Obe, dikk black like Toby (Obe...Toby)
Watch me roam like Gobe, lucky they don't owe me
Where the safe show me, homey.. (say what, homey

Yes, very true. The hook is very pop but so hip-hop at the same considering the source of the interpolation. That being said, the verses go hard to this day.

 

[W.I.Z.E.]

I know I'm gonna hear it but this is one of BIG's weakest songs to me.

His verse on Victory lyrically is One More Chance Remix commercially and musically and Who Shot Ya is just

Victory is his greatest display of skill without a doubt IMO. He absolutely murders that beat and the verses are fukking classic. I played that join about 5 days ago a good 9 times in a row.

But the bass line and the flow on Hypnotize is just classic.
