hope it's good and gives us some new info on his life ain't hear before.


:deadhorse:they havnt said anything new about him in 20 years and his story aint deep to begin with. they had to drag other people's name in the dirt in order to make his biopic interesting.

only stuff you didnt hear about him, is the chit that will make you look at him funny.


For real, move away from the generic life story docs and start going deep on the albums. Imagine a Pac one for "All Eyez On Me" and "7 Day Theory"


then they'll just regurgiate the same names over & over via different albums from the same ole artists.

no thanks.

the rap audience gets treated like flies drawn to lightbulbs.

"Shoutout to Fulton Street, my Nostrand Ave nikkas" - Biggie

I see complaints about their stories being rehashed but it's not necessarily for people 30+. There's a whole new crop of fans into Hip Hop who are young who never watched all those interviews, documentaries, movies, shows about Big or Pac and don't know their history. To them, they're just names that are held in high regard but they're not familiar. This gives them a chance to gain knowledge and an opportunity for people like us to reminiscence and enjoy the nostalgia.

Still remember watching this D-Roc doc.

:wow:

nikkas were young and running wild



The one posted above (I bought the DVD when it first dropped and copped it again last year)
The A&E doc
Biggie Smalls: Rap Phenomenon
Notorious B.I.G. Bigger Than Life

Watch those 4 documentaries and you'll see all the footage and angles possible about Biggie.

His story is honestly very shallow personally. It's clear that they always take up for Biggie and don't tell the full truth at all because the people on his side are still in power.

You won't hear about stuff like his role in East vs. West or him beating up women.

if those younger folks were interested, they wouldve pressed up one of the 2726363 biggie docs that are already available by now.
