Be honest....Back in the day....Who did u think was on the cover of Ready To Die?

[smokeurobinson]

First time I saw this album cover was at Nobody Beats The Wiz and I immediately thought it was a pic of his daughter from the Juicy video because Biggie was always mentioning his daughter. I bought this album along with Kanes "Daddys Home" album. But Once I saw the insert I noticed the baby looked "boyish" so then the assumption was that it was Biggie as a kid but the photos didnt look "old school" like most 70's photos so there was a conflict. Is it Biggie or his daughter? Ghost saying Biggie bit Nas a year later sealed the thought that it was Biggie as a kid on the cover. I didnt know the baby was just some kid model till after the new millennium. So basically Ghost didnt know what the fukk he was talking about and was confused like everyone else.

whether it was Big himself or not...the implication was that it was Biggie as a child....so the Shark nikkaz skit is still some real shyt.

Niccas is mad Ghost called out more of the blatant style biting ..

I immediately assumed it was BIG's baby pic.

Or maybe Ghost thought it was really Biggie just like everyone else which is the point I'm trying to prove.

Technically one could say Biggie was biting Nirvanas "Nevermind" cover being that 1) the kid was a toddler unlike Nas who was more in grade school 2) The kid wasn't any of the musicians 3) Nirvanas album cover was more pupular.

Thought it was Biggie

Didn't really care about the Nas shyt because the cover fit the album perfectly

you're reading too deep into this...its a flip of Too Short's album cover with a kid on it..maybe the kid was an idea he got from Illmatic...the age of the kid is not important since they are adults so any childhood pic will still get the point across.

 

[Black White Sox Hat]

i thought it was probably his son

 

[Flywin Lannister]

I think we all thought the same thing: this is either Biggie's kid or a Biggie as a baby

Right?

 

[Billy Ocean]

Threadstarter old and dumb as fukk. Ghost never implied that he thought it was Biggie as a child on the cover. He said Biggie was biting Nas by putting a child on the cover.

That was just pure hate on Wu part. If Biggie flopped and sold 10 records. That skit would never happened. But when Big came in the game and lapped all them NY nikkas. Hate started to fly.

 

[old boy]

yeah i pretty much assumed it was biggie & never put 2 and 2 together that it didn't look like a 70's photograph

shark nikkas amused me. it's funny thinking back to new york rappers sending shots at big. was just listening to heltah over the weekend and it reminded me how they and ogc were going at big heavy

yeah they even did an article on the kid on the 20th anniversary i believe. Kid didn't realize how big of an impact that pic was till he was 10 or something.
