It's Been 15 Years.


This is a list of my all-time favorite Biggie songs. Enjoy.

You were the best to ever do it. It's a shame that you died at only 24 years old. You were a genius, a trend setter, the Mohammed Ali of Hip-Hop. Even if you were doing a feature or just the hook on a song, you had a way of stealing the show. You are what Michael Jordan was to basketball. Just like him, you weren't the inventor of the game, but you are the person that made everyone want to play it. You brought your own style and flair. I would have loved to hear you and Talib on a track. Or on a 9th Wonder or a Just Blaze Beat. Or to hear the things that you could have done with the instrumentals from "The Blueprint". What could have been. It's sad that the only way for people to really appreciate and realize the greatness of your music was through your passing. But your legacy lives on through your music, and it always will. Thanks for the memories. Thanks for the music. Thanks for Hip-Hop. Baybeh-Baaaybeh.
