Title: Notoriously Awesome
Product review: This is without a doubt one of the best rap albums EVER. It was hugely influential to boot. Biggie's raps feature great storylines backed up by great beats. The raps are lengthier, they're quite involved and the listener has to actually listen to the lyrics, not just passively hear fluff. Biggie's delivery and flow are excellent too; there's just something about his voice and cadence that works with this material. The raps look into the struggles and dangers faced by people on the street and also by Biggie himself. Violence and the threat of violence are everywhere, tho not glamorized, and characters in the raps meet bad ends. The title, Ready to Die, takes on a grim character in light of Biggie's early death by gunfire. The absolutely best raps of all the good ones on here are:Things Done ChangedGimme The LootJuicy - great flow to itSuicidal Thoughts - chilling recording of a call placed by Biggie to friend (Puff Daddy) about contemplating suicide.Suicidal
