  • This video shows Biggie's: Hangouts, Juicy Video Filming Locations, Mural Rap Battle Location and Childhood Home (where I happened to meet his son Christopher Wallace Jr...who was in town for a production of his own). All filming was done in the Bedford Stuyvesant and Clinton Hill neighborhoods in Brooklyn, NYC.
    This year marks the 25th Anniversary of Ready to Die. Biggie’s debut album that would eventually go platinum, four times over.... He got his first break in 1993 when featured on the Real Love (Remix) w Mary J Blige and then again in 1994 on the Flava in your Ear (Remix) with Craig Mac and Company - Two great tracks. Juicy was his first major success as a solo artist and put him on the map but it was Big Poppa that made him a Star.

    freestyle lyrics
    Yes it's me, the B.I.G
    Competition ripper ever since 13
    Used to steal clothes was considered a thief
    Until I started hustlin' on Fulton Street
    Makin' loot, knockin' boots on the regular
    Pass the microphone I'm the perfect competitor
    Jewels and all that, my clothes is all that
    Chumps steppin' to me, that's where they took a FALL at!
    B.I.G. without burner, that's unheard of
    I stay close to mine like Tina on Turner
    Quick to smother, a punk motherfucker
    Undercover, word to mother, I'm above ya
    And I love ya, cause you're a sweet bitch
    A crazy crab, the type to make my dick itch
    I flow looser than Luther, words ya get used ta
    B.I.G. is a born trooper
    Like ice cream I scoop ya, my music you wanna get loose ta
    Stay pimp, and I'm not a booster
    So what'cha got to say? This mackin' word is bond
    There's no other assumption, I got it going on
    I'm not conceited, my friends tell me this
    Even my mother, be noddin' her head to this
    Makes her proud to see her one son get loud
    Flip on a sucker, and bow to the crowd
    Drink a little Hennessy, smoke a blunt or 2 or 3 or 4
    Live in action, guaranteed RAW (dumb ass nigga)

    A.F A.M. stands for Ancient Free and Accepted Masons.
    Orient was originally from The Grand Orient de France (GODF) is the largest of several Masonic organizations in France and is the oldest in Continental Europe (as it was formed out of an older Grand Lodge of France in 1773, and briefly absorbed the rump of the older body in 1799, allowing it to date its foundation to 1728 or 1733). It is generally considered to be the mother lodge of traditional Liberal, or Continental Freemasonry.
