    BIG was soft-spoken. Music was his way of opening up a bit more and releasing his thoughts.
    He said in this interview that he has to rap about violence and street life because its all he knew. But I promise you by the year 2000 biggie would’ve evolved. Biggie was a smart guy and I know he would’ve dropped the gangster act and found new ways to express himself.

      @@truthforyouth1995 I disagree. BIG would have succeeded in any era because he was extremely talented, but I'm not sure about Tupac. Pac has a similar story to 50 cent: he was a mediocre rapper with zero notable verses or lines who got shot, then as a result of the media attention he starts working with Dre and suddenly he's selling crazy numbers which gradually decline. Tupac can only succeed in another era if someone shoots him in that era and then Dr Dre agrees to sign him.

    I remember being in my single digits and seeing Big and 2pac on the music videos. I thought these dudes were larger than life. And for being as young as they were, they were really that. Being 37 now and you realizing that you outlived them by a significant amount of time, and you STILL feel like they were larger than life- even in death. That's just how iconic they were, and still is. Way ahead of their time. I always wonder when I think of Big "Damn bro, what if?...."

      Life After Death is not the Albums name by Accident.,,he already signed of right there unknowingly...and we now know it was not solely his idea to come up with this album's name. Crazy when you add all of it together...and these doods interviewing Bigs, knows da parts...the way how they be asking certain questions.like Diddy eating all da food and Bigs response to Diddy eating..

    He was killed when I was 4. As I got older and listened to the old school music, I can unequivocally say... I am so mad he was taken too early. The music he could've done. The great things as a person he was capable of. I have watched interviews, and his mother was also a great woman as well. Educated and strong.

I grew older and you and total became two of my favorite artists (along with Kim Junior Mafia etc) I think about what life would be like if you were here.

    Seeing and watching this interview with Biggie makes me sad, because he was looking forward to bigger and better things in his future and was bettering himself, and he was a cool person. But then come 3/9/1997 he gets gunned down and killed, and this interview was 4 days before his death. I think had Biggie not went to California after his mom told him not to go, he probably would still be alive today, and him going to California was a bad idea. From this interview right before his death, Biggie talks about what he was planning on doing in his future and he talks about his 2nd album "Life After Death" that was about to be released at the time, and everybody was just enjoying his company. There's even a young girl who talks to Biggie and she tells him that she loves his music. This interview even shows Biggie being nice, sweet, generous, kind, and friendly, and that's what makes him cool. He even says how he would love to see his 2 kids grow up, and it's also good to know that he was no longer the same person or as violent like from when he first came out as a rapper. Biggie had changed his lifestyle at the time of this interview, but it's still sad knowing that he's not alive and was gunned down and killed for no reason, and Biggie could have still been alive today. But God bless him.
