Title: Mo' Money Mo' Problems
Review: I don't own this CD, but I do own Ready to Die and Life After Death, and I love Biggie. Every fan asks "Where's _____? It's my favorite song!" which, given the comments, remains the case here. I'm happy to finally pick up the "One More Chance" Remix that samples DeBarge's "Stay With Me"; it was popular on the radio, and now we can all get it on iTunes. But I have to ask: where's "Mo' Money Mo' Problems"? It may not be his best hit, but it's definitely his biggest. "Hypnotize" is a hip hop classic, but even my grandma knows "Mo' Money, Mo' Problems." And the phrase became part of our vernacular because of this song. I know many people that scoff at the mention of hip hop culture and can't pick Biggie out in a crowd, but even they remark, "Yeah, mo' money mo' problems." Oh well, so much for documenting a cultural moment. That said, Biggie Smalls is still the illest: "B-I-G/P-O-P-P-A/No info for the/D-E-A..."
