Complexion

Here’s the thing which sort of disconnects me as someone who is Big’s age it was in the mix from what you guys are talking about. The streets dictated what was hot back then in hip hop and that was the real “release” date.
So when you say “who shot ya” was dropped on the orders…
First of all… Big had NO pull in bad boy to dictate what was going to be dropped.
Second… The real release date for songs was considered to be songs, played on mix, tapes, stretch, and Bobbito, those things. Those were New York release dates. The buzz was already on the streets for that song before Pac got clapped.
Not Bigs orders, like I said he was the mouthpiece. Timing lines up too well and then you see Big flaunting pieces similar to what Pac was missing.
Disses on top of disses. I know you can say they all shopped at the same district but man, how many "coincidences" do you need?
