in The Reason
In a sec, I throw the tec to your ? neck
Everybody hit the deck, Biggie bout to get some rec
Quick to leave you in a coffin, for slick talking
You better act like CeCe and keep on walking
When I hit ya, I split ya to the white meat
You swung a left, you swung a right, you fell to the concrete
Your face, my feet, they meet, with stompin'
I'm rippin MC's from Tallahassee, to Compton
Biggie Smalls on a higher plane
? say I'm strange deranged because I put the 12 gauge to your brain
Make your ? splatter
Mix the blood like batter then my pocket gets fatter
After the hit, leave you on the street with your neck split
Down your backbone to where your ? cheek drip
The ? I kick, ripping through the vest
Biggie Smalls passing any test, I'm ready to die!
Probably my favorite track off the album

If someone said it was better than illmatic, I wouldn't argue. I disagree but their opinion holds alot if weight as well -
Undisputed classic.

I wonder is this the song that made Pac think Big was biting him. This and shed so many tears have a similar feel to them..
-
I could spit at least 98% of the rhymes just from my memory, this could be the Hip Hop album I have listened to the most in my life if not it is top 5 for sure.

Not trying to turn this into the 10000 big vs pac thread but I don't see the similarities between those songs at all. Pac wasn't talking about putting hits on people And stomping out people on so many tears lol -

Yea, what 2Pac was talking about wasn't on Ready To Die -
Best track on the album that people barely talk about. Ironic since it's the title track.
I really hate the remaster for this album and how you can no longer find the original on streaming services. The missing scratches/samples on this song and Machine Gun Funk were crucial. Those songs don't feel the same anymore. -

The remaster ruined this album. -

About 10 years ago he got sued for those samples, so they had to take it off

I'm cool. I got the original remaster release from '04 that is just a cleaned up mix of the original album. Since I haven't used a CD player to listen to music in over 5 years it's a bit of a nuisance since I only stream music now but it's still there in the event that I actually plug in a CD player one day. -

Didn't know that. Why'd they wait over 20 yrs to sue though? That long a time you'd figure they were cleared. -

I personally liked this much better than Illmatic.
Big was just a more rounded rapper than nas, pun intended lol...Big's humor kept me more engaged -
So many rap songs besides Ready to Die owe their life to having this sample in their DNA
