Today is my dad's birthday. He was killed in 01 and this was his favorite song. So I play it every year for him. HAPPY BIRTHDAY dad. It's that time again. And last night dad they thru us a surprise birthday party. I'm sad and happy because you were killed at this age and now I've out lived you. You'd be proud. I own a store, I've written children's books. I've been on TV and in magazines, radio. My books are in libraries. I'm proving that sky is the limit and I am flying.
I feel like crying. I remember the positive feelings that this masterpiece gave me. I remember my girlfriend of the time, my true friends and the smell of the 90's is in the air.
Playing this song on New Years to bring in 2023. This song just makes me appreciate that I’m still alive, still going, still chasing that dream. I wish anyone reading this growth, happiness, and most importantly love.
This video is so beautiful and moving. Biggie was already gone when they filmed it, so they decided to cast everyone as children. The kid NAILS his role filling in for Biggie. It’s a masterpiece!
Preetam Bhattacharjee no it’s not that’s my lil homie Conrad who stayed on my block in Gardena Ca. Lil Biggie was not even a year old when this came out.
I see a comment that is 3 years old saying if you're listening in 2024 You're a legend. God bless everyone who made it to 2024, this song is a classic. If you're listening in 2027 it'll be 30years since this gem came out. Long live B.I.G and god bless you!
“A nigga never been as broke as me” I swear that line hits hard when you’re going through it. I was well off as a kid. But unemployments and baby momma drama really fucked me up. This song makes me smile and hopeful
Yo...Dee....Hoping that things are picking up....I'm from south Bronx Morehouse projects...It wasn't easy but when anyone goes through rough times... sometimes due to decisions one makes...you fall...But the thing is....you don't stay down....You get back up...use it as life experience and it makes one stronger...for the next round if it comes your way... I've been through shit but I got back up..and kept steppin forward....My reasons.... myself....and family.....Paid no mind to the clowns....and stayed focused...I'm good...Easy to do bad....harder to do good but much more rewarding.....
@@uncletony3025 This is actually misquoted from the verse. Biggie flipped Einstein quote to be witty and said: “Keep a shell(bullet) at the tip of your melon(head) clear the space, Your brain was a terrible thing to waste” Just a clever, witty bar 🔥
@@DracoPadilla- yep they were about drop their labels and join forces - basically would have had the whole rap game in a choke hold, Now imagine Pac & Biggie together on their own label, imagine their influence and the artist that would have signed with them .. and more importantly the influence and impact- that kinda power would have elevated and influenced our people around the world 🌍 .. That type of move, was way bigger than Nino Brown…. And in the words of Denzel (King Kong wouldn’t had shizit on them ) for real 😧 together…..
Yeah it's sad..because times have changed alot. So many good people died whether from sickness,Haters,Loved ones,friends,life being hard,drugs etc..but at the end.. GOD still let us live through this storm we call LIFE...Even when we dont deserve it
The song is very close to my heart having to deal with people doubting and abandoning me in my life . I learned to never allow people to determine my success based on my shortcomings anymore.
When my son was born last year I played this song for him in the hospital room while his mom slept first song he ever heard, the sky is the limit my boy
A lot of times I feel like a fuck up because I haven’t accomplished as much as I want to yet in my 29 years on earth. Other times I’m grateful for all the experiences and lessons I’ve learned that have made me into the person I am today. We’re imperfect beings living in a complex world. Having faith in yourself is the most important thing. One love
Your comment made me burst into tears. I'm exactly the same age and feel the same exact way... I think it was meant for me to play this song tonight and read through the comments
Feeling the same way as you guys, being exactly 29 and probably from another part of the world... this comments brought me goosebumps, sentiments and a smile on my face.. keep your head up🙏💖
Knowing Biggie's faith, this song makes me cry..he was just a guy who was trying to have a better life but he was betrayed..💔 Biggie forever in our hearts

This kid accomplished so much in a short time,sad that he didn't get to live his life because of cowards.He would've done so much more,and would've had endorsements and so much more accolades.We in the X generation remember you" Biggie".❤
I'll say I'm a bigger fan of 2Pac than Biggie but, when it comes to something to listen to at night or by myself or just to chill and feel good...... Biggie gets the nod. This beat is a good example of the spots biggie hits on the regular that others can do but, there's just something special about his ability to cut through to the soul. Im 38 so I grew up with this era of music and just can't get into the newer stuff so I just keep listening to this stuff and that's just fine with me.
I think I was in the 9th grade in 1997 when this came out. I miss the 90s and my friends I had at the time. This song remind me of being overseas in Okinawa, Japan on base.
This song gives me chills everytime I listen to it so real and raw you can feel it in your soul I love it R.I.P. B.I.G. Poppa there will never be another like you
Man I didn't know this song until highschool but that was me when i was a kid people talked crap everyday my closest friends would roast me at school everyday and i never got into fights because i thought id kill somebody...but i just took it because i saw their struggle even if noone else and knew it was a cover. I had one pair of red ass filas that people gunt everyday and two shirts and some track pants i would just switch the shirt and i never had underwear until i could work so i just used my gym shorts. he say you wanna see the inside ill see you later i never had anybody come over especially a girl so i didn't date because my mom is a hoarder and we had so many roaches when you come in and turn on the lights 100s of them scatter and we all used to stomp them. it grossed me out and sometimes theyd even crawl out of your bag in class and you just try and play it off or kill it immediately. it was so horrible. that's what its like. I wanted to be that bully sometimes like he claimed to be but luckily i grew up in evanston not the west side or south side of chicago cuz i wouldve kilt a lot of people or they wouldve killed me.
The video depicting kids in such adult like situations transports me mentally to a place where I'm a kid with a dream. To this day, this song reminds me that anything is possible. Go for it
This is why Biggie is #1 The lyricism, the play-word, the flow, the ear for the instrumentals to floss on. For that and more this man’s legacy is untouched. 2023 and beyond 💫

Fun Fact: Every kid in this video, are grown ass men and women now. Some may even have children the same age they all were in this video. Think about that for a minute!
It’s a sample from Bobby Caldwell’s “My Flame”. Biggie had good taste, and I respect him for using such a great track. I highly recommend you check out Caldwell’s song.
This was the cutest video ever made. I wish that East Coast/West Coast bullshit never brewed between two of the greatest rappers to have ever graced the mic. RIP Big. They'll never be another one like you.
The media intensified the shit, Tupac said it was smaller than that. It was out of disrespect, not what the news said it was. The interview wasn't even made public until after Biggie's death.
this video is probably the most touching I have seen, considering that they shot this after his death. Really makes it more bittersweet with the message he portrayed in the song and video. RIP Biggie.
idk bruh he's good burt not interesting to watch in 2024 we got only Six Mello as the primal one cuz of the way he moves (he just the most hated artist now) idk why tho
This song takes my breath away each & every damn time. The way the beat rattles against Biggie's hard-hittin' rhymes is excellently flawless. Not to mention the video was creative as hell. Solicits yesteryear memories of my bro & I sitting in front of the TV and catching up on BET music videos mixed in with our favorite Fox Kids shows. 1998 days...
I was 16 the years Tupac and Biggie left this earth. This was my area of music and there has been no one ever since they passed that can even come close to those legends in music.
I am a die hard biggie fan and always when I listen to his music I can just imagine what it has been like to live in brooklyn at 80s-90s. The feeling is just so special and no other artist has ever gave me that feeling. I can't really explain it but yeah. I was born in the year of 2003 in Finland so I have literally no experience in anyway of "gang life" or anything like that and I am very saddened by the fact that I couldn't ever witness biggie live. But yeah I dont think anyone really cares about my story but I just needed to write it down as this song is so good. If u actually read this, thank you for spending your valuable time to this Edit 6.5.2022: Never did I expect this comment to "blow up" and to get so many interesting replies, thank you for those. I just wanted to specify that Im not "admiring" the gang life or nun but instead extremely interested that how does it feel like to know that any second someone may come around the corner and just start shooting. Other thing is what I already mentioned earlier that I would pay any amount to just see Biggie perform live, and also I am interested to know yall's favourite biggie songs so leave them in the comments below also. My favourite is Unbelievable. The beat is so perfect and Biggie changes his flow so many times in that song, It is a masterpiece as are many other biggie songs. Whoever is reading this I hope you the best of a day!!!
From what my dad has told me its like walking home from school dodging shootouts and drug addicts just trying to get home. Then you get older and your friend picks you up in their car and once u get in u find out its stolen. Getting into a fight by 3 get home by 4 smoke an L come back out and your bike got stolen. Then u get a call that ur friend got shot. All in 1 day. So much BS
yooo , obvisuly we never could live this type of life y lived more than yours asjdjsa cause I'm from chile but it doesn't matter just get the vibe and the best message of the biggies songs but Idk is fun how to see another guy from place across the pond , is living the same thing with his music (I hope you could understand everything xD didn't use google translate )
What people don't understand is that rappers have changed as society has changed. We live in a generation where today teenagers are hooked up to music that is most suited to them. Advancement of technologies, clothes, foods etc. are factors that influence change in our society. This causes a rise in a new taste of music. My mother listens to these old type of songs and asked why she listens to it and she replied by: " Look son this song i am listening to, takes me back to the old days and makes me feel good" Her taste now is different to my taste of music. Don't blame the rappers, we can't control the evolution of our society.
I grew up throughout the 2000s and I hated nearly everything that came out, still hate most of the songs out today! I used to listen to classic music when my mates were listening to bassy shit...I blame these fake ass Musicians for shaping the music industry today. It's so fucked...songs are complete garbage...I'm 25 years old...I hate bass. I hate partying. My god...did I grow up in the classic ages? nope... so I don't agree with what you're saying right here. Sure it's a good point but nope, don't like it.
+chickenkiller i know it, but he said thet he would be done with music after 4 more albums... why? why didnt he want to make music for all his own life?
This is one of the best songs from biggie. A positive vibe and message . If you can't relate to this get your brain checked out by a neurologist. The sky is the limit should strike a chord to everyone. This is the truth. Real talk. Rip biggie.
Lydell Gillett Yes the song and sound are awesome but the music makes me a bit sad.It makes me think of my beloved friends or relatives that died and of the death.
Exactly. I wish Biggie made more introspective songs like this instead of the negative, senselessly violent and hedonistic songs that made up the majority of his catalog. Only other good Biggie songs I could think of are Juicy, Suicidal Thoughts, Everyday Struggle and Miss U
Went seen my father today at his grave and this song truly gave me some clarity on my next steps. RIP BIGGIE AND POPS !!! #Mentalawareness is a must just check on your ppl.. love ya pops
@Manish Upadhyay these kids are manipulated by a CIA op meant to destroy them just like the rest of the black community. there's no future in selling crack and destroying people's lives. "gangster" shit is fucking retarded especially if you are hanging out on the corner and BIG is spitting your mantra. stop being a tool
@@leemal7165 No thanks, I'll take my kind of "intelligence" over yours. I hope you don't breed either. Cause it's your kind of intelligence that breed these type of people, and I don't want you near children since you don't know right from wrong. Thank you!
This track never gets old. Timeless track. The audiophile definition of legendary! Dre is an amazing engineer and producer, but this track trumps alot of Dre's shit in the early mid 90s. I feel so blessed to have grown up in this era. The Golden age of hip hop. Will never be like it again, ever. Tracks like this put the stamp on it. RIP Christopher Wallace and Tupac Amaru Shakur.
@@genesisbrooksviverette2809 mine too my man. Takes me right back. I've shed tears to this shit in the past. Nostalgia man, nostalgia. Peace and love homie. God bless.
That ain't no shit. I'm 38 so this was what I e stuck with. Dre is the master of putting it all together but this track just hits home like very few others can. Nostalgia is a powerful emotion we all should seek and appreciate and relish n. Like some use drugs for, tracks like this just wipe away all difficulties, if even for a few minutes. There's some decent artists out there currently but it's not even close to the same and I stick with what I know is good, a creature of habit, and I'm totally content with hearing this stuff over and over forever.
I was hanging around with friends in the streets, drinking and smoking and the best thing that could happen back in those days was a hood brawl. Nothing to see..... In the nights, I used to play this song and dream on anytime when we where drunk.... years later I took all my courage and went back to school with 21 and now, Im about to become a teacher. 2pac and Biggie helped me on this hard path. I believe that there are more examples out there, their life was not wasted, I´m sure, their message reached a lot more than me.

Knowing Biggie's faith, this song makes me cry..he was just a guy who was trying to have a better life but he was betrayed..💔 Biggie forever in our hearts
ONE OF THE BEST MOTIVATION SONGS OF ALL TIME! THANK YOU BIGGIE!

I love the concept of children playing them in the video, it was creative and adorable.
yea but i always thought that's biggie smalls when i was a child lol
Yeah he was dead Puffy had to think of something 🤕
When I heard the screams I thought it would be a negative shift of tone but it was cheering and I loved that

This kid accomplished so much in a short time,sad that he didn't get to live his life because of cowards.He would've done so much more,and would've had endorsements and so much more accolades.We in the X generation remember you" Biggie".❤

This song is not underrated!

Underrated?????? No way👊👊👊
BIG was so good, and had that many hits in such a short period. It’s crazy.
One of the most meaningful rap songs to ever exist, R.I.P BIG
I’m a 24 year old , so I never was around to see biggie, but I absolutely love this song

This song just hits my soul smh. I love how they use kids to play their parts. Love it!!
Sad that it happened because of his demise
I'll say I'm a bigger fan of 2Pac than Biggie but, when it comes to something to listen to at night or by myself or just to chill and feel good...... Biggie gets the nod. This beat is a good example of the spots biggie hits on the regular that others can do but, there's just something special about his ability to cut through to the soul. Im 38 so I grew up with this era of music and just can't get into the newer stuff so I just keep listening to this stuff and that's just fine with me.
This is my favorite Biggie song
Wish Big could see it

I wasn't here already, when you died, but thank you for this rap. RIP biggie🙏

Man I didn't know this song until highschool but that was me when i was a kid people talked crap everyday my closest friends would roast me at school everyday and i never got into fights because i thought id kill somebody...but i just took it because i saw their struggle even if noone else and knew it was a cover. I had one pair of red ass filas that people gunt everyday and two shirts and some track pants i would just switch the shirt and i never had underwear until i could work so i just used my gym shorts. he say you wanna see the inside ill see you later i never had anybody come over especially a girl so i didn't date because my mom is a hoarder and we had so many roaches when you come in and turn on the lights 100s of them scatter and we all used to stomp them. it grossed me out and sometimes theyd even crawl out of your bag in class and you just try and play it off or kill it immediately. it was so horrible. that's what its like. I wanted to be that bully sometimes like he claimed to be but luckily i grew up in evanston not the west side or south side of chicago cuz i wouldve kilt a lot of people or they wouldve killed me.
Biggie is boss. RIP

I hope one day this type of hip hop comes back although we'll never get another biggie sadly.
The video depicting kids in such adult like situations transports me mentally to a place where I'm a kid with a dream. To this day, this song reminds me that anything is possible. Go for it
That’s why we love it.

Fun Fact: Every kid in this video, are grown ass men and women now. Some may even have children the same age they all were in this video. Think about that for a minute!
Time flys!!! GET YOUR MONEY UP!
I was born when this hit recorded And I have Two Kids 🙃
Yup. They gotta be entering their 40s now or just entering in that age bracket now or in their 30s 😢😩. Wow
What is there to think about, just saying you made no sense
Word is born
Bro that instrumental feels like it gives u a hug and a kiss on the forehead 😭
Yes😥😭😭😭
It’s a sample from Bobby Caldwell’s “My Flame”. Biggie had good taste, and I respect him for using such a great track. I highly recommend you check out Caldwell’s song.

This was the cutest video ever made. I wish that East Coast/West Coast bullshit never brewed between two of the greatest rappers to have ever graced the mic. RIP Big. They'll never be another one like you.
pac and big have made 1 or 2 songs together when they were good, if that beef never happened pac and big would rule the rap world
The media intensified the shit, Tupac said it was smaller than that. It was out of disrespect, not what the news said it was. The interview wasn't even made public until after Biggie's death.
No Diddy though ok?
this video is probably the most touching I have seen, considering that they shot this after his death. Really makes it more bittersweet with the message he portrayed in the song and video. RIP Biggie.
Listening in August 2024💙🌧️
idk bruh he's good burt not interesting to watch in 2024 we got only Six Mello as the primal one cuz of the way he moves (he just the most hated artist now) idk why tho

This song takes my breath away each & every damn time. The way the beat rattles against Biggie's hard-hittin' rhymes is excellently flawless. Not to mention the video was creative as hell. Solicits yesteryear memories of my bro & I sitting in front of the TV and catching up on BET music videos mixed in with our favorite Fox Kids shows. 1998 days...

Very well said
I was just thinking how this song reminds me of playing Nintendo 64. I wasn’t much older than the kids in this video at the time. Crazy looking back!

So much proper music out there you just gotta keep a open mind bro.

I am a die hard biggie fan and always when I listen to his music I can just imagine what it has been like to live in brooklyn at 80s-90s. The feeling is just so special and no other artist has ever gave me that feeling. I can't really explain it but yeah. I was born in the year of 2003 in Finland so I have literally no experience in anyway of "gang life" or anything like that and I am very saddened by the fact that I couldn't ever witness biggie live. But yeah I dont think anyone really cares about my story but I just needed to write it down as this song is so good.
If u actually read this, thank you for spending your valuable time to this
Edit 6.5.2022:
Never did I expect this comment to "blow up" and to get so many interesting replies, thank you for those. I just wanted to specify that Im not "admiring" the gang life or nun but instead extremely interested that how does it feel like to know that any second someone may come around the corner and just start shooting. Other thing is what I already mentioned earlier that I would pay any amount to just see Biggie perform live, and also I am interested to know yall's favourite biggie songs so leave them in the comments below also. My favourite is Unbelievable. The beat is so perfect and Biggie changes his flow so many times in that song, It is a masterpiece as are many other biggie songs. Whoever is reading this I hope you the best of a day!!!
From what my dad has told me its like walking home from school dodging shootouts and drug addicts just trying to get home. Then you get older and your friend picks you up in their car and once u get in u find out its stolen. Getting into a fight by 3 get home by 4 smoke an L come back out and your bike got stolen. Then u get a call that ur friend got shot. All in 1 day. So much BS
I do care about your history my man. It's inspiring for real.
yoo im from finland too and love this song
I’m interested in your story and I’m sure more people are too
yooo , obvisuly we never could live this type of life y lived more than yours asjdjsa cause I'm from chile but it doesn't matter just get the vibe and the best message of the biggies songs but Idk is fun how to see another guy from place across the pond , is living the same thing with his music (I hope you could understand everything xD didn't use google translate )

That's right! Rap used to be deep. Only a hand full of artists that can do what Big, Pac, Nas, Jayz, Eminem and them did!

"If the game shakes me or breaks me I hope it makes me a better man."
- Legend
What people don't understand is that rappers have changed as society has changed. We live in a generation where today teenagers are hooked up to music that is most suited to them. Advancement of technologies, clothes, foods etc. are factors that influence change in our society. This causes a rise in a new taste of music. My mother listens to these old type of songs and asked why she listens to it and she replied by: " Look son this song i am listening to, takes me back to the old days and makes me feel good" Her taste now is different to my taste of music. Don't blame the rappers, we can't control the evolution of our society.
Frank Brunetti last I checked, the earth was still round and blue (with some brown, orange, white, grey and green)
Frank Brunetti what?
Sensible..exactly my point of view.
I grew up throughout the 2000s and I hated nearly everything that came out, still hate most of the songs out today! I used to listen to classic music when my mates were listening to bassy shit...I blame these fake ass Musicians for shaping the music industry today. It's so fucked...songs are complete garbage...I'm 25 years old...I hate bass. I hate partying. My god...did I grow up in the classic ages? nope... so I don't agree with what you're saying right here. Sure it's a good point but nope, don't like it.
only thing Is im 15 and I love this music the new stuff is shit

no you idiot when im randomly watching a pac or big video. hes comment pops up immediately...
listening to this in 2025 my pops was right biggg a legend 💯💯
man its a shame couldn't get to be alive he would have been like 5 more good albums
He said he was going to make bout 4 more and be done with music. Really sad
puff killed him and then recorded his lyrics
+JahVero why be done with music? ?? its nosense
+andreo's biggies dead
+chickenkiller i know it, but he said thet he would be done with music after 4 more albums... why? why didnt he want to make music for all his own life?
This is one of the best songs from biggie. A positive vibe and message . If you can't relate to this get your brain checked out by a neurologist. The sky is the limit should strike a chord to everyone. This is the truth. Real talk. Rip biggie.
Lydell Gillett Yes the song and sound are awesome but the music makes me a bit sad.It makes me think of my beloved friends or relatives that died and of the death.
Lydell Gillett should of played this at a graduation
Exactly. I wish Biggie made more introspective songs like this instead of the negative, senselessly violent and hedonistic songs that made up the majority of his catalog. Only other good Biggie songs I could think of are Juicy, Suicidal Thoughts, Everyday Struggle and Miss U
+IAintGivinOutMyRealNameOn UA-cam He's a gangster rapper...what do you expect?
Jacob Bassett No, he was mafioso. BIG wasn't even part of a gang. Learn your hip hop history, damn.
Went seen my father today at his grave and this song truly gave me some clarity on my next steps. RIP BIGGIE AND POPS !!! #Mentalawareness is a must just check on your ppl.. love ya pops

This track never gets old. Timeless track. The audiophile definition of legendary! Dre is an amazing engineer and producer, but this track trumps alot of Dre's shit in the early mid 90s. I feel so blessed to have grown up in this era. The Golden age of hip hop. Will never be like it again, ever. Tracks like this put the stamp on it. RIP Christopher Wallace and Tupac Amaru Shakur.

@@genesisbrooksviverette2809 mine too my man. Takes me right back. I've shed tears to this shit in the past. Nostalgia man, nostalgia. Peace and love homie. God bless.
Me too!
@@stephanierandall1170 amen!
That ain't no shit. I'm 38 so this was what I e stuck with. Dre is the master of putting it all together but this track just hits home like very few others can. Nostalgia is a powerful emotion we all should seek and appreciate and relish n. Like some use drugs for, tracks like this just wipe away all difficulties, if even for a few minutes. There's some decent artists out there currently but it's not even close to the same and I stick with what I know is good, a creature of habit, and I'm totally content with hearing this stuff over and over forever.
I was hanging around with friends in the streets, drinking and smoking and the best thing that could happen back in those days was a hood brawl. Nothing to see..... In the nights, I used to play this song and dream on anytime when we where drunk.... years later I took all my courage and went back to school with 21 and now, Im about to become a teacher. 2pac and Biggie helped me on this hard path. I believe that there are more examples out there, their life was not wasted, I´m sure, their message reached a lot more than me.
