This album kinda misses the point a bit. This is a hip pop album made to fly off the shelves bought by kids who dont know what or who Biggie was. Don't get me wrong it's okay, but thats only because of Biggies vocals.The production is tight though but more befitting to an N-Sync album. Nice to hear some new biggie material just dont expect it to sound anything like Ready to Die. Pleases though Puffy, Diddy, whatever..... don't go dancing up in the videos and stay behind the mixing desk!
This is the album that I was most looking forward to in 2006. It has a huge array of guest appearances.
'Spit your game' produced by Swizz Beatz is brilliant. It features Twista and Bone Thugs N Harmony. The beat is heavy and Twistas rap is unbelivebly fast.
My favourite tune is '1970 something' which features The Game and Faith Evans. The chorus is really catchy and the Game verse is perfect for the song.
However, a lot of people will just focus on the guest appearences. In every song, Biggie shows his stuff and reminds us of his quality lyrics. Every rap chosen, suits the beat perfectly.
I think this is a great album, well worth buying. A lot better than Born Again .
Get out there, buy it, and listen to the legend in a brand new way!
HOW CAN YOU NOT LIKE THE GENIUS OF BIGGIE SMALLS ?? THAT COUPLED WITH THE DUETS FROM EVERYONE FROM PUFF DADDY (OR P DIDDY AS HE LIKES TO BE KNOWN NOW) TO EMINEM THIS IS A MUST FOR EVERY SERIOUS HIP-HOP COLLECTORS COLLECTION !!!!!!!!
