I still haven't

Thank God

3/20/2012 10:05:54 PM

^See, this mug is a troll mane

If you can't recite one verse to juicy you're lame mane, Ready to die is our modern day poetry and Juicy is some Lord Byron she walks in beauty shit, yadig?

We're all about the same age here, lets discuss this mug

Everyday Struggle > Juicy

3/21/2012 10:10:16 AM

^ the drums on "everday struggle" annoyed the hell out of me! lyrics are dope though, i must agree with that.

3/21/2012 2:20:24 PM

what the hell is this thread about? old school's slow transition to chit chat?

3/21/2012 3:53:17 PM

what the hell is this thread about?

3/21/2012 3:55:53 PM

i'm not black, if that's what you mean

3/21/2012 4:10:42 PM

No less than 29, cause I don't know what juicy is.

3/21/2012 4:13:07 PM

^^^^Yo kim girl, why you gotta troll this mug? We can all relate to some Frank White yadig?

Yo Gilbert, i dig mane

I know how it feel to wake up fucked up, pockets broke as hell, another rock to sell...etc I can relate in a sense (pharmaceutical sales rep)

What are y'all mugs' favorite Biggie lyrics then? i reckon this is a valid old school topic due to that ready to die mug dropping while we were all old enough to have CD players at the beginning...and these new mugs were probably in utero...

3/21/2012 11:11:45 PM

I weep for my old school.

3/23/2012 6:07:44 AM

In 1997, I was in middle school so 13 or 14.

I know how it feel to wake up fucked up, pockets broke as hell, another rock to sell

3/24/2012 11:23:02 AM

I know you got knowledge of this rap game mane, be fruitful in this mug

i dont approve of the user, but Juicy is a seminal white suburban kid hiphop entree. I remember when Ready to Die came out, and like The Chronic and other major label hip hop albums at the time, gave me a visceral visibility into a world that as a white, male, suburban, middle class kid, I had no idea existed, both the positive and the negative. It wasn't until I got into college and Napster hit that I was able to go back and become an obnoxious backpacker and revisit/relearn so much of what I had missed growing up and fall in love with hip hop all over again.

So, I think the thread is appropriately old school. The OP is kind of annoying though.

^much respect packguy381

I appreciate your insight and honesty

I heard about Ready to die as a white kid playing hoop at a predominately black gym in Hickory.

Highland Ave represent mane.

If you had game in the 828 you played at Highland...and you could get school help there too...they provided tutors at the time...i believe its now closed.

too fucking bad.

Ready to Die is a true classic, in the same vein as The Chronic, Doggystyle, and All Eyez on Me.

It was just confusing to me, being 11-12 years old, and bumping it through the speakers of the 486 computer we had downstairs.

When I was dead broke, man, I couldn't picture this

In my life, it was more like

When I was dead broke 10 years old, I couldn't picture this Santa brought me this

I started getting into Biggie the summer before my senior year in High School, so I would guess 1995. I would have been 17 almost 18

12/1/2012 10:34:01 AM

I don't know, maybe 14 or 15. I guess either freshman or sophomore year of HS.

12/1/2012 6:51:29 PM

I always preferred Things Done Changed. Verse 3 is phenomenal.

If I wasn't in the rap game
I'd probably have a ki knee deep in the crack game
Because the streets is a short stop
Either you're slingin crack rock or you got a wicked jumpshot
Shit, it's hard being young from the slums
Eatin five cent gums not knowin where your meals comin from
And now the shit's gettin crazier and major
Kids younger than me, they got the Sky grand Pagers
Goin outta town, blowin up
Six months later all the dead bodies showin up
It make me wanna grab the nine and the shottie
But I gotta go identify the body
Damn, what happened to the summertime cookouts?
Everytime I turn around a nigga gettin took out
Shit, my momma got cancer in her breast
Don't ask me why I'm motherfuckin stressed,
Things done changed

In 1997, I was stationed in South Korea, near the DMZ. So I'm sure I heard it via radio or on AFN (Armed Forces Network).
