I remember listening to this freshman year in college in 1994. My mind was blown, played this tape back to back like 4 times. Keep getting stuck on this song. This was the standout cut on the album to me and it was the 2nd song on the B side lol
Me too. I had this cassette tape. I listened to it over and over on auto-reverse. Oldheads know about auto-reverse. I smoked my first joint to this album.
"Packed up my tools for my raw power move, glock 19 for casket and flower moves" 🤴🏾 This is the difference between gangsta rap with skill, and rappers just saying their gonna shoot niggas!! Fav BIG song
This song is what got me into Biggie’s music. When I heard it on Notorious when the movie first dropped, I started to listen to the actual song. I knew when I heard it the first time I had to learn it word for word.
Might be my favorite song on Ready To Die. It was very relatable. He spoke for the ppl in those positions and options at the time. RIP to the Greatest! 🙏🏾
One of the best songs, the storytelling you could relate to everything he’s saying he was a dope MC that album has a classic certified top 10 best albums, hands-down 🔥🔥
Big is my favorite rapper this one of my favorite songs , New York niggas can relate to this 100% when he said went to see papi to cop me a brick asked him for consignment he wasn’t trying hear it😂
Dealing drugs, he said he could clock about $9(k) on the check cashing line. Smart to hit that up 1st of the month. Man he was really in that game. Gawd I miss real hip hop.
You gotta do 2pac, Shorty Wanna Be a Thug bro. I'm from Detroit and I appreciate you going back and checking out the Golden era of hip hop!! Keep doing yo thang young king!
Damn bro, I love all the other reaction channels like Vibevilla, Stevie, doc rich, shaq, mrLboyd but what connects me with you the most, is that you dig the oldschool and golden age and please keep reacting to it. Rakim, Run Dmc, Tribe Called Quest, Nas, Pac, Public Enemy, LL Cool J. Please react to some of Outkasts older stuff from Atliens and Masta Ace with his album long hot summer. Greetings from Germany
Big was so dope. READY to Die is one of the best rap albums ever. One of the best storytellers ever is Ice Cube. Check out "You Can't Fade Me" or "Once Upon A Time In The Projects" by Ice Cube from the 90s.
Gotta give it to BIG, he was an ELITE storyteller. But, he's not the only one to do it well. You have to check into Kool G Rap (Rags To Riches), Slick Rick, Ice Cube, Nas, Rakim to start with.
Fire bro, though im missing some more bone tracks, they got tracks deep that are timeless, every album is fire. No surrender, East 99, land of the heartless, 1st of the month, it's all Mo thug, it's all real, handle the vibe, Mo murder, I could go on and on, all fire.
Reality rappers?!? Yo that is the best term to describe what made those artists so dope back in the day.. plus to describe what I am continually searching for. I’m always like “ I am looking for MCs that rap about real shit” , but of course no one knows what the fk I mean lol. It also perfectly displays what hip hop is missing today. I will definitely be using “reality rappers” all the time bro. Trademark that shit! Lol
Your highness/loftiness King Ahmadus Rex, what about his seamless flow tho, you ain't said anything yet on that? but as you said, he puts it down and keeps it realest street don't he?
I remember Pac saying in an interview that Big took the whole idea for this song from him when he was locked up on Rikers Island. Not the content of the verses but the whole suicidal aspect of the hook. Idk a lot of shit Pac said wasn't exactly accurate lol.
PAC was telling the truth. Listen to Party and Bullshit and then listen to this. Big wasn't even talking about stuff like until he met PAC. There are also videos on RUclips of Big shouting out "thug life" on stage with PAC. Research more on BIG and you will see the stuff he was fronting about.
@@danavharris Bruh I don't have to research, I was there for most of it when he said it but a lot of that was just Biggie looking up to Pac. He idolized that dude before they fell out and a lot of people in Pac enterouge were screaming thug life back around 93/94 because Pac had just started to become known for that. I ain't gonna say he used to be lying but he said a lot of shit that was only true from his perspective. That being said, I know a lot of NYC rappers thought and still do think that it's fine to just take people's shit and not give credit.
Tha best that ever did it!!! Hands down🔥🔥💪🏽💪🏽 You gotta hear the one with the Lox & Biggie. It’s called cream Freestyle.trust me Biggie massacre that shit bro.
Fun fact: Biggie said that this song was his personal favorite. 👑👌🏽
One of the best songs in hip hop history. The man was incredible.
yes and tbh i feel like this is one of his most underrated songs
This song is in my top 3 all time favorites. One of the greatest rap songs of all time.
Facts! 💯 So relatable
Facts
Never felt forced, never felt like he was cramming too many words, raw voice and dope cadence. BIG was amazing
I was their when this album came out.The energy was crazy.Miss this brother.
He definitely is missed

This album stayed on all day and night at the old arcade full of smoke
"Packed up my tools for my raw power move, glock 19 for casket and flower moves" 🤴🏾
This is the difference between gangsta rap with skill, and rappers just saying their gonna shoot niggas!! Fav BIG song
Like OMG bro~~~
The flow is crazy.
This song is what got me into Biggie’s music. When I heard it on Notorious when the movie first dropped, I started to listen to the actual song. I knew when I heard it the first time I had to learn it word for word.
what movie?
@@smallballin605the movie about Biggie’s life called “Notorious”
Told you man. This song is the perfect B.I.G. song to me. Beat, Lyrics, Storytelling. It has it ALL. Peace, man.
Might be my favorite song on Ready To Die. It was very relatable. He spoke for the ppl in those positions and options at the time. RIP to the Greatest! 🙏🏾
Big facts
This is my absolute favorite Biggie track. Every time I hear it, it’s like the first time. I fall in love with it all over again
Common - A Song for Assata
The story telling on this song paints a just as clear or clearer picture than Everyday Struggle when listening.
This and Friend of Mine favorite joints off BIG's first LP
we all felt Big so much in NYC cause he was telling all of our stories growing up out here!!
One of the best songs, the storytelling you could relate to everything he’s saying he was a dope MC that album has a classic certified top 10 best albums, hands-down 🔥🔥
This is my fav BIG song. I bump this strong til this day!
Big and Pac had Easy Mo Bee as they main producer on their albums Mo is a monster!
Crazy to me when people say big only talked about party life. Clearly didn’t listen
Facts,,,,He just a Party Rapper smdh Shut Up !!!!
We need more Biggie brother, Biggie - Things Done Changed
This hit different when u listening to on a Sony walkman lol
Big facts
Used to bring ready to die in my Walkman to the 7th grade haha good times.
on the city bus too
One of my favorite songs from him🔥🔥🔥🔥
A lot of people won’t catch this unless you’re from Maryland especially Baltimore but when Big said “Hon” that’s a Maryland thing.
And there’s people who really think Jay-Z is better than Biggie and this is him at 22 rapping at this elite level
It's not fair to compare them
Biggie is the GOAT in my opinion. His natural flow, lyrics and story telling ability all together makes him elite.
It be dope to hear this song for the first time again I remember the first time I heard it n related to it heavy 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Big was masterful in painting a picture with words! My fav off this album is Machine Gun Funk
Big was so nice with it ,clear effortless flow so smooth
Big is my favorite rapper this one of my favorite songs , New York niggas can relate to this 100% when he said went to see papi to cop me a brick asked him for consignment he wasn’t trying hear it😂

Your highness/loftiness King Ahmadus Rex, what about his seamless flow tho, you ain't said anything yet on that? but as you said, he puts it down and keeps it realest street don't he?
