“ Nothing to lose tattooed around his gun wounds, everything to gain embedded in his brain” - what a sublimely eloquent way to describe the type of character Ron was - lyrical genius
The imagery in this song is amazing! Part 1) the breakdown of the deal he intended to sour Part 2) introduction to Ron’s exploits, his partner in crime Part 3) The robbery itself with vivid description.
A whole movie can be made out of this... men this is so genius. You can literally picture the scene in your head when you listen to this. Biggie is lyrically the best no doubts

By the mid to late '80s, you had the Golden Age cats like LL, Rakim, KRS, Kane, G Rap, Slick Rick, etc, who took lyricism and the artform to new levels with sampling and conversational flows. Then in the early '90s, you had the gangsta rappers, pro-black rappers, and the high octane gruff voiced rappers like Onyx, Das Efx, Busta Rhymes, Native Tongues, etc. Biggie came out of that era. Then by the mid '90s, hip hop changed again with lyricism being stepped up even more and the underground emerging as a viable force.

That’s why he’s better than Nas imo. Nas takes himself way too seriously. Biggie got into some dark subjects yet somehow managed to mix in humor as well
This jawn shows u Big was like a slick Rick story telling not many could do it better his lyrics were visual like u got a movie and a sound track in one miss you always BIG
Biggie's story telling was off the chain, this is 1 of my favorite Biggie songs, I can picture everything he's saying, it's like a Movie, Rest in peace Christopher Wallace. The Greatest Rapper of all time.
The greatest of all times. Saw him in concert when I was 14. This is one of my favorite songs and one of the most truthful songs in the world. We are all the same. So picture me being scared of a nigga that breathes the same air as me! Rest Easy Christopher
Since its on I called my nigga Arizona Ron from Tucson pushed the black Yukon usually had the slow grooves on mostly rocked the Isleys!!! Best story teller ever. Makes u feel like u in that shit
This is the best story telling rap song ever IMO. There are other good ones but this one is so dramatic and so vivid that you forget how good the word play and wittiness from big is. He knew how to make hit records, he knew how to make street shit, songs for the ladies, incredible stories. He was also only getting better. Idc what anyone says, life after death was even better than ready to die. I only wish we could have seen how good this dude would have become if it wasn’t for that night on March 9th 1997. RIP B.I.G. 🐐 👑🎤
i agree. iv always loved BIGS music. This wasnt one of my faves at all. As i have got older and started listening to the story over the beat i would say now that this story blows my mind. I can picture the carnage in the hallway and the tense situation when the guy with dreads just walks by. its a tense listen

@@Gwngozalol are you kidding? There’s not a big song you could name that I don’t know inside and out. This song you could make a whole movie about. A whole book. It’s a such a complete and dramatic story that plays in your mind so vividly. Nevermind the fact that the wordplay is amazing. To me this one is hard to top.
"Yo, yo, yo, let me break it down for you, fam. I'm UA, and I got that street hustle, you know what I'm sayin'? I'm all about that hip-hop, that rap, that trap. My rhymes are on point, and my beats are sick. I'm out here, living life, chasing my dreams. Got that swagger, that flow, that streetwise gleam. So don't sleep on me, cuz I'm bringing it real, With my love for hip-hop, I'm here to stay, feel me?"
This is my all time favorite Biggie song. The rhymes, storytelling, beat - absolutely perfect in every way. I can listen to this hundred times and I will still have my mind blown by how easy the storytelling is.
It's like , when I listen to this I am taking part in the "flim" I'm watching/listening to... "Promise you won't rob em,..I promised, but of course ya know I had my crossed 🤞".. lyrical genius 💯
Drill music is up there. Its all the same, just in a different form, audience, etc. They all killing each other like they used to, its the same shit happening just in a different musical manner
that was the life zero remorse making that bred to feed the family zero fucks. he was and is one of the best knew the life cuz he lived it and no one comes close at least now a days
I don’t care what nobody says This is the best rap story of all time. This song has everything not only the best lyrics but it has a plot It has a climax it has an ending it has a storyline it has characters, it has two quick stories, within the story… dam, Just make a movie off it
According to Vibe, this is the only song Big actually sat down and wrote pen and paper. It’s sad dude couldn’t even reap the rewards of his efforts. You could tell this was a special track to him.
