What If Biggie Killed Himself Right Before Ready To Die Dropped?

[Capo Dei Capi]

Just been listening to Suicidal Thoughts and wonder what sort of legacy Biggie would of left if he'd Kurt Cobained himself the day before the album dropped

Do you think this would of made him bigger in death than his murder did?

So we have no Pac beef, no second album just Ready To Die and whatever else he had recorded at that time.

I think it would of added a different kind of mystique to Biggie and then there would be the rumors of Puff really killing him.

Big L status. BIGS image in those years helped make him.

Honestly both Pac and Biggie killed themselves

2Pac's legend spilled over onto Biggie...

Biggie dies after RTD, no one remembers...

But the same would be true for ANY artist who died after their first major project, they will quickly be forgotten...

No one is bigger than time...

So yall don't think him killing himself and the next day people cop the album and it ends with this



would create a different legacy?

man stop it, we already gotta suffer with his death right before LAD, i can assure you he'd be Big Pun Status. They'll remember him for being vicious on the mic but that about it! No one would put him in any top category. What made Big's legend was what he did after RTD and letting the album breathe along with his beefs, his collabs and artist he developed during that period. LAD dropped and it solidifed him. I think if he had lived to at least make a 3rd album and gotten capped off there, then his legacy would be OFFICIAL being that he was getting better.

he'd be seen as a hoe nicca. and alot of people wouldnt even bother checkin for him to see if he was hot.

suicide isnt celebrated in the black community. ESPECIALLY not back in the day.

What about todays generation though? Would he get that hipster revisionist love?

No, that wouldn't be art . . it would be a recorded suicide note. His album would've probably ended up being a cult classic but that's it, the label would wash their hands of it

yea.

but the hipsters dont respresent this current generation either.

theyve just somehow been given a voice thru the internets.

that conflict is equivalent to the Magic/Bird years to basketball history...Brady/Manning to football...

no way he would be bigger without that...a different mystique yeah...but nothing to what he has now where nearly every single MC has to reference him, tribute him or go on one of his beats at some point

oh and maybe Kirko Bangz would be Big E

 

[Blankthawtz]

if he did...fukk it he'd probably go to hell...cuz he's a piece of shyt it ain't hard to fukkin tell....

Its not celebrated in any community.

For Catholics, it's an automatic pass to Hell.
