I'm 52 now but back when I was about 28 a 17 year old came into work one morning gushing about this new band she saw on MTV unplugged called Rod Stewart and The Faces who sang a song called Reason To Believe. That was the first time I felt the age gap like that. Since I started watching reaction videos it happens a lot:)
So funny that as an old white lady, I’m for sure not his audience, but I still have always loved listening to the old hip hop music. So smooth. Just can’t sing along is all.
As a teen, growing up in the 70's. This beat was created and produced by the Isley Brothers. The song is "Between the Sheets". I can appreciate that Notorious B.I.G. did not distort or butcher the beat.
I checked, because I remembered this sample with female voice. Gwen Stefani (from No Doubt, you reacted them) - Luxurious, she (and many more) used this same sample too 😊 ♥️
Without a doubt. I feel a little sad for this generation lol. But it’s cool a lot of them seem to be finding the good stuff now. They’re so blown away because of what they’re used to
@@Xman156 Because you can't get over the fact the hip hop has evolved for the better and there is alot more versatile Songs I'm 13 and I know how to share my opinion without ruling out other factors grow up 30 year old complaing about everything that wasn't around when you were growing up
B.I.G is a fellow Jaimaican (such as yourself). His best songs to me were the smooth ones. His other material is gutter and grimey street tales....this is more mack talk. Great reaction.....
He changed his flow from when he first got discovered by Puff at Uptown, then Puff got fired, and ended up at Arista and built Bad Boy. After that point, he added a smoothed out flow. The thing about BIG was that he wasn't afraid to rap in a style he wasn't used to, just to prove he could do it... you hear a LOT of that on his second album
The Isley Brothers "Between the Sheets" but after that, b4 Big Poppa", "A Tribe Called Quest" (Bonita Applebum hootie mix). They did it first folks and the old and young heads went crazy....I was there
90's had all the dope samples bro. There's a reason we call it "the golden era" n it looks like you get why. When beats were dope n MCs had to be authentic or they got no play in the whip lol. Biggie is in most people's top 3 cos he's the truth n was dope on every type of beat. An all rounder 💯
@@1paradox I feel like we're at the beginning of something awesome, when it comes to the new wave. It's like when rap first came out and everyone was copying everyone else. It took til the mid 90s for it to find its feet and when it did, 2pac, Biggie and Wutang were the result. Then we had a bunch of really left brained, lyrically dope but emotionally stunted rappers...in alot of cases. I look at the new wave as those who are pushing boundaries like Public Enemy and NWA. Not the dopest but they were the pioneers so it needed time to evolve. These days rap has alot more feeling and it's not all about being the toughest or most intelligent. Some of the substance has been compromised but wait 10 years until these super EMO lil yachty niggaz start marrying that softer side, with lyricism. Then we might FINALLY see niggaz catching up to Andre 3000 🙄😂
@@1paradox I agree with you there. Music is now like bill board advertising so that people can get paid through social media and stay relevant for sponsors...yawn
Dear SIR, You must check out the amazing "Notorious Thugs" with Bone, Thugs, and Harmony. He matches their flow and gets it in 1 take (legend says). "The Sky's the Limit", "Mo Money Mo Problems", "Hypnotize".
You had to be the best to survive and make it in this era. No UA-cam rappers. You had to battle to get your spot. You want real hip hop, real rap? Rewind the clock because this was the era that made the industry what it is.
He was one of the best ever. Period. 'Sky is the Limit' is a great song with him and 112. Speaking of them. 112 is a great group you may not have heard of. They have a great song featuring Notorious BIG 'Only You' along with some other bangers.
I grew up on this song... One of the best!! Classic 90's.. Notorious BIG "One more Chance " "Hypnotize " 112 feat Notorious and Mase "Only you" Puff Daddy "Its all about the Benjamin's" Remix Nas "If I ruled the world"
You should definitely check out the continuation to this song --- it's called "Warning". The link to the official music video below: ua-cam.com/video/TbSm6HsX_ek/v-deo.html
The original is an amazing song. Between James Brown, Parliament Funkadelic, The Isley Brothers and Steely Dan, that's like a third of hip-hop samples right there lol.
I waited on this one cause this is the song me and my daughter played loud as we left my husband's funeral. He was a big beautiful man. R.I.P Big Pappa😘
oooooh the nostalgia! & seeing Mase & Busta! such good music in the 90s PLEASE listen to " 24 hours to Live" by Mase & Black Rob, Lox, DMX. (explicit). SUCH a good song.
After this song came out Biggie Smalls was a hip hop Sex Symbol in the 90s and including LL Cool J, Method Man, Big Daddy Kane, Eazy E, Tupac, NAS, Shaq, Will Smith, Davante Swing, Lil Shawn, Etc..
the Part 2 is really not a Part 2 to this song.. its the beginning of Warning. Check that out. "who the fuck is this, paging me at 5:46 in the mornin'... crack of dawn'in.. now i'm yawnin.. wipe the cold out my eye... see who's this paging me... and why.." so good
Da Brat featuring Notorious BIG- B Side (explicit version) Da Brat- Funkdafied (explicit version) Do Or Die- Po Pimp (explicit version) You will love these Lil bro
Runnin by Notorious BIG and Tupac and Friday by Ice Cube. Mary J Blige is also someone you must listen to! Without You. You Remind Me is my all time favourite. She is an absolute Queen.
Any song by either 2pac or Biggie. I’m not a huge rap fan but this along with many others instantly take me back to the 90s. You couldn’t go anywhere and not here these two
42 year old white boring lady here but this was THE jam when I was in high school. So smooth. However I actually called him a mumble rapper before that was even a thing. I preferred Tupac because he was sooo crisp and clean in delivery vs mumbly poppa but it’s all still real good. Better than anything these days!

As a 35 year old white woman from Indiana... I know every word of this song. This is a classic.
If you're 35ish and don't still know every word, you've lost a special part of not just your brain but, even worse, your soul.
As a 40 years old austrian, me too. Greets from europe. ;)
That's some commitment
Girl, same! Well, except from the Indiana part ;)
@@Cate5013 haha...
I still can’t get over that there are people who have never heard the hip hop greats such as Biggie. I think I’m just in denial that I’m old LOL!
We are not old..we have good taste in music
It's not that we're old, it's just that younger people are FAILING TO LEARN about all the COOL STUFF we know! We're the cool ones, damn it!
My daughter is 20 and calls my music “old”. Even though I play it around her, she puts her ear buds on and tunes it out. Lol

We're old AND we have good taste in music!
"One More Chance" "Hypnotize"
Yes tell him 2 Keep doin' biggie.
Hypnotize for sure
"I got a story to tell" would be fun to react to.
Juicy
Yes! These two songs are a MUST!
The song that is sampled is Isley Brothers "Between the Sheets." You should seriously give it a listen.
Yes!!
He only knows them as the iss-leee brothers
Another vote for listening to anything by the Isley Brothers especially "Between the Sheets" and "Shout"
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, ooh, baby, baby
Making love between the sheets
repent
"I love it when you call me big pop-pa"
❤✌🎵🔥
Ha ha
🤣🔥
So funny that as an old white lady, I’m for sure not his audience, but I still have always loved listening to the old hip hop music. So smooth. Just can’t sing along is all.
I am an old black lady, and you are MOST WELCOME!
Why would you not be his audience lol. Good music is good music
@@laylascott6096 So true
RIP Biggy taken too soon but he lives on through his music
biggie music will never die ❤️
All the luminaries in that video -- Mary J, Diddy, Bus... the 90s had it.
As a teen, growing up in the 70's. This beat was created and produced by the Isley Brothers. The song is "Between the Sheets". I can appreciate that Notorious B.I.G. did not distort or butcher the beat.
isley brothers just literally put the base to most of greatest hits, starting from cube and ending up with biggie😂
this sampled the Isley brothers "between the sheets"
I checked, because I remembered this sample with female voice. Gwen Stefani (from No Doubt, you reacted them) - Luxurious, she (and many more) used this same sample too 😊 ♥️
The 90s rappers sampled songs from the 60s,70s and 80s.
Not Not Notorious
@@vithouse8037 are you serious?
Actually Puff Daddy was responsible for a lot of that trend...
This song is sampled from between the sheets - Isley brothers!
We were blessed in the 90s with arguably the best hip hop and R&B ever produced 🙏
80s were awesome too! I can't stand today's hip hop.

I Got a Story to Tell should be recommended more along with Ten Crack Commandments.
Yes! Can't forget Sky's the Limit! That video is still a fav

I can relate a little bit to him. Im 15, but part jamaican originally from brooklyn
How old am I? Well, I didn't need to click on the notification to know what song this was...😳😳
🙋🏼♀️ Same here, girl! 🤣
The song at the end of the video that this flows into is "WARNING" another classic...........
“Hypnotize” for sure! Please- 💙✌️
This was a club favorite back in my wild days!
Yes indeed!
Yes yes and yes! BIG 🙏🙏❤️❤️
If you’re old school you know all the words!
MEEEEE!!!!🙋♀️💯😎😎😎😎
So glad I grew up with this hip hop and rap music instead of the stuff that’s out today😊
Big props to the producers of the song too!!!
The song it was about to transition into at the end was "Warning" which you should check out. Also "One More Chance" Remix.
The song at the end is called "Warning". You should definitely check it out.

You damn right Jay, BIG had one of the smoothest flows ever! And he made everything seem so easy, even though it wasn't!
God damn✨
Dude was always smooth. Memories listening to this lol
Biggie was probably the greatest MC of all time. He had the voice, the flow, the lyricism... a true genius taken too young.
I waited on this one cause this is the song me and my daughter played loud as we left my husband's funeral. He was a big beautiful man. R.I.P Big Pappa😘
