So Biggie stole his whole style, name and song from a breh in Mississippi

[UncleTomFord15]

This dude is legit probably owed 10s of millions in royalties.

Not ascertaining the credibleness of the claim but what incentive does Mtume have to discredit Biggie when his name is affiliated with one of the greatest hip hop acts of all time?

Old school artists give zero fukks about how acclaimed rappers are man.

Some show love (Bob James, George Clinton) but they aren't obligated. They have their own careers and fan bases and legacies, shytting on a rapper ain't gonna affect them one way or another.

Is it wrong that I think this shyt bumps way better than Juicy and that dude's flow shyts all over Biggie's?

Nah. This is dope. I like the different spin on the Juicy sample. I bet this would be hard as hell chopped and screwed.

 

[Lonj]

Man what are you talking about?

Multiple rappers used the same samples. "Atomic Dog" got wore the fukk out. P funk in general.

Same with James Brown and Bob James.

Matter of fact....Keith Murray, UGK, Da Brat, Common Sense, and BIG all used "Between The Sheets".

Fred.

The Gap band's Yearning for your love and Cameo's Candy are two other tracks everyone and they mama sampled.

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

Nah. This is dope. I like the different spin on the Juicy sample. I bet this would be hard as hell chopped and screwed.

OMFG

TUNNEL BREHS...MAKE THIS HAPPEN!!!

 

[moorfeus]

This definitely dropped before Juicy

Damn on the low dude was nicer than Biggie!
They jacked everything from him!

 

[UberEatsDriver]

No it wasn’t. Everyone had their own style and sound.


The problem back then is everything ran through New York. There are a ton of down south artists that you never heard of because they couldn’t get radio play in New York.


But like Jay Electronica said on Exhibit C, New York rappers jacked a lot from the South.

It is what it is.

Jay electronica raps like an east coast rapper.

Man shut yo ass up using him as a reference

Lol

 

[Voice of Reason]

Alright I’m about send this to Tariq


And you wonder why folks are called the T word

 

[Ya Sinning Mane]

Biggie is a lowkey fraud
damn New York
He still the KONY

 

[UberEatsDriver]

Diddy has some explaining to do but of course no one is going to ask him

 

[Knicksman20]

The Gap band's Yearning for your love and Cameo's Candy are two other tracks everyone and they mama sampled.

I'd add Outstanding from the Gap Band as another one that was heavily sampled

 

[Jesus H. Christ]

Damn! The gun talk on this joint is crazy

 

[UberEatsDriver]

Mississippi down to the east coast…can’t be a coincidence

 

[NO-BadAzz]

I'll believe this over folks saying big jacked his flow from MC Thick from New Orleans

He took Mia X whole style and persona, how she rapped and gave it to Lil Kim

It was a fact that Biggie heard Mia X tape The Big Payback and she said that he told her that he was going to do something with it

 

[Traveler]

see this is the bullshyt about these type of revisionist history stories

the fact of the matter is Pete Rock from day fukking one has always said he created the song juicy for biggie and puff stole it from him and allowed Trackmasters to produce this song which made his relationship with puff rocky due to Rock being Heavy D’s first cousin and Heavy D being one of puffs closest friends and all of them being from Mount Vernon

with that said …. defeats the purpose of this new story by this Notorious B1 character

I was about to say this. I swear I heard it was Pete Rock that puff took it from. Glad to see the evidence to back it up.
