Big wanted to hold it down for you guys.. That was his whole intent. He said Heavy D was holding it down for the big fly light-skinned brothers, but there was nobody representing for the big dark-skinned brothers, so he stepped in and made sure he was always fly and swagged out.
Naw!!! BiG helped me too!! I didn’t see myself as being anything, no true prospects. BiG’s lyrics allowed me to see myself differently. I appreciate him and still miss him. 💯🥹🥹❤️👩🏾💻

@@simonjohn70again - music is subjective - so your entitled to that. We can agree to disagree- no worries. I’m just a huge fan of Dj Premiers production- so that boom bap with heavy cutting and scratching and sampling is my thing✅
R.I.P. BIGGIE! Life After Death is one of my all-time favorite rap albums. DJ Premier is one of my favorite producers. Great conversation across the board.
@@donwondoa313 the new episode is out I'm boutta hit that up. I'm looking for some real biggie fans on here so lmk if biggie is ur favorite of all time
BiG was gone in a Flash!! But what he left behind is sooo monumental, Notorious Thugs when he got in that pocket was crazy!! So mad he didn’t get the chance to hear how we felt, omg!! BiG mannnnn.. Their will NEVER be another.., BiG, BiGGie, Big Poppa, Frank White, Francis the PRAYIN Mantis, KONY.. 🫡🤣🔥🔥🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲👩🏾💻💯💯❤️❤️☺️💐
Biggie is truly hip hop greatest loss. Whether you thought Life After Death was better than Ready to Die or not one thing for sure was that his flow got better on Life After Death. Just imagine the possibility of his flow further improving on his third album. Guess we will never know.
Just finished listening to the audio version of this ep, and I'm glad it isn't exactly a rehash of the story Primo's told a million times in interviews, and more recently on his YT channel. I had always thought Chuck sued Biggie/Puff/Primo after the fact, and not prior to Biggie's passing. Would've been interesting to have seen if Biggie could've handled it and talk to chuck about it.
I’m 45 years old and for me Big is the greatest rapper EVER!!! His flow is incredible and no other rapper can match it. There is that question who is better rapper Big or PAC? For me they were two completely different artists. PAC was a 20th century poet,activist and actor. Him and Big were two completely different artists. But as a rapper NOBODY is better than Big and it’s such a sad situation that both those dudes lost their lives at such a young age over BS!!! 24 and 25 DAMN. They didn’t even start their lives yet RIP To Big and PAC.Happy Birthday Big. Because of the internet your legacy will live until the end of civilization.
DJ Premier is TRULY Hip Hop Royalty and doesn’t get an ounce of the credit he deserves for some of the most iconic beats in Hip Hop. Not only being a part of GangStarr but from Big to Nas to Jay I can only imagine some of the other stories he has over the years just being present. Salute to him 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Thank 👏🏾 u so much to get this story can't wait to meet my BIG FAMILY THE ONLY CD I GOT IN MY CAR IS BIG NOTHING MESSING WITH THE GOAT HAND DOWN..BLESSING
His genius was making his rhymes seem so simple and at the same time it was so 5 dimension that his rhymes became so real like i was in the room standing next to him. GOAT!
Angie, such a great series here. The quality of the this production, the interviews, the memories is very high. Great job to al involved in this project honoring B.I.G.
BIG was 23 years old. Was the GREATEST RAPPER OF ALL TIME. 👑 CROWNED the KING OF NEW YORK. And nobody TILL THIS DAY can see him LYRICALLY. #UNBELIEVABLE!!
To be honest, Big 's Lines were so Flawless when he spit, HE PUT YOU IN THE STORYLINE LIKE A MOVIE, Every word was perfectly phrased i.e- " Im interrupted by the doorbell, 3:52 who the Hell? -is this get my shit, Every Song I must have Killed the damn CD , Life after Death I played it a million times, He was a Master Storyteller, to me he was the Best Hands down. I had the Honor of meeting him by chance a t a Red Light on 52nd st and Broadway -he was in a White on White Land Cruiser with Black Tints, Base thumpin ' and He pulled down the Window, -he gave me a Pound - I'll never forget how Cool his attitude was , no conceit , just a Real One, R.I.P. because I felt he never did wrong , just a lot politics & BS & Hate to Pull him down, when Truthfully He would have been at LEAST 100MM -500MM Legend if NOT MORE AT THIS POINT IN HIS CAREER, with Jay & business endeavors -Blessings. It Hurt when he was Killed . Good Dude True G
He is more than that. I'm a fan from Europe, outside the English speaking area, lyrics and storytelling are not important to us, but what we notice first is the melody of the voice and flow, as well as the convincingness and confidence.
Too bad Angie didn't ask him more question about 'Pac in that hotel room & stories of them together, or more questions about Big hanging out with Nas. Everything else, we've heard over and over and over again...
Angie Martinez has raised so many of us dude...that time im from South Africa 🇿🇦 S/O to Preme, the way he described them recording 10 Crack Commandments 👌🏼
I love biggie so much! I got a playlist of all his songs and featured performances if anyone's interested. It's like 141 songs just go to my playlist and at first I attempted to keep them in chronological order of release but it's not like that anymore. I need real biggie fans to check it out and lmk if I'm missing anything
The american music industry lost one of the best evergreen dope rapper I ever had. However, If we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord. Rest well Big😴
The Ten Crack Commandments had a profound effect on Ricky Ross. From that moment when he first heard this track..he knew he needed to become a prison officer to make sure justice was served behind bars on drug dealers and all law breakers!😬

BIG has so many classic songs that it's hard to pick but what's his most impressive song ever? (flow, lyrics, tone etc.)
My Downfall or Victory
My favorite lyrical song by BIG is “The What” His wordplay and metaphors was on 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I think victory dude also I think the mass public is pretty fond of juicy or big poppa

Music still hot to this day. Good point to think about his age when passed how his vision to his image was. 🔥 🎤🫡🔊💯
