“N*ggas is actors, n*ggas deserve Oscars…” – The Notorious B.I.G.
Just think: if Jamal Woodlard was an actor by trade, he’d go on to play a bumbling security guard in a Disney movie followed by the “token Black guy” in a Judd Apatow flick without being haunted by the shadow of Christopher Wallace.
However. Jamal Woolard is not an actor by trade. He’s better known as the rapper whose recording career is notoriously marred by him taking a bullet in the fanny. With his association to the other “big” rapper out of Bed-Stuy constantly the focal point of everything he does musically, anything short of Ready To Die will go unnoticed on the radar.
And if this is an indication of things to come, a career change is in order. It doesn’t have to be UPS but his future behind the MIC is a little bleak.

He can make a good career out of those straight to DVD flicks, you know stuff like Inferno In the Bronx, co starring along the likes of Ice T, Kool Moe Dee, King Sun, Sticky Fingaz, Grandmaster Caz and all the other usual suspects.
The thing is , even if he came out with a album better Ready to Die’s feel and quality, people would NEVER give him the kings throne. The gen. pop. don’t believe that any modern day classics ever out due the old.
I mean if he did actually, legitmately, top Ready To Die, you have no choice but to give him the crown. That goes for anybody. Any other reasoning is certified hate.
Waste of a Gully god feature. The beat is kind of weak too. His voice has no command in it and his lyrics are weak.
Anywaaaayyyyyy
Well thats my point TC, logically you would. However, people have pedestals that they place things on that can NEVER be topped, no matter what. Take Big and Pac, people will always place them in their top 5, and half of them really even listen to them like that. It’s the all mighty pedestal man
If he happens to put out an album that can match or excede Ready To Die or any classic, people would have no choice but to give that respect. That being said Gravy has a better chance of winning the Oscar for his portrayal of Nelson Mandela than putting out a classic album.
Next!! !
LOL@Bigga, word up
I listened to both Big and Pac A LOT. Distorted my mind on some shit that only going to college could fix. LOL. But truthfully, no one can, nor has topped Big. I mean, Jigga has come close. But Biggie is just the king.
Wow. My ears are filling out a victim impact statement.
Still better than “Crack a Bottle”.
