[QUOTE="nickyb628"]Saying sorry for your loss isn't bad, a bit cliche and doesn't really sound like it's from the heartYarcofin
That was my main concern is coming across insincere, but I can't think of anything genuine yet original.
Honestly putting thought into it isn't even going to be "from the heart." Just say what comes to mind. As long as it's positive.[QUOTE="nickyb628"][QUOTE="wagexslave"]Biggie is to rap, what the Beatles are to rock. He revolutionized the rap game.Making a few rhymes doesn't justify endless documentaries, songs, and major motion pictures being written about you. Most of his music probably wasn't even self produced and the majority of his beats probably weren't even written by him anyways. He had no real musical talent, just rhyming. Probably couldn't even play an instrument let alone sing. Even his voice wasn't anything special, he probably couldn't even vocalize one octave above his usual voice.
He's been dead a little over a decade. "Biggie Smalls". We know. We're over it. Move on.
Release this movie in 30 years when it'll actually be interesting. It's not like this movie will be introducing him to a brand new generation of people like Walk The Line did for Johnny Cash's music.
(Johnny Cash, someone who revolutionized music as a whole and probably influenced the creation of many genres INCLUDING rap... Biggie Smalls, someone who "pioneered story-telling rap" :roll: ) Think about that for a second and keep trying to convince me that Biggie "did something big".

I completly dissagree with that. Biggie didnt revolutionize anything. He made some good music, but FAR from revolutionary while workign with the likes of PUFF DADDY.
2Pac, RAKIM, SCARFACE or KRSONE i would say are the Beatles of rap music, not Biggie Smalls. Tracks like MO MONEY MO PROBLEMS are revolutionary? riiight. More like commericla BS. Like i said above, Biggie was amazing and made some AMAZING music, but he also made some terrible songs. Im sorry but songs with MASE and Puff Daddy on them are NOT revolutionary.
You're not understanding the concept. Story telling rap was never around, or even thought of before Biggie came onto the scene. The Beatles have some terrible songs. Every artist does. That doesn't mean he didn't revolutionize rap.[QUOTE="nickyb628"][QUOTE="wagexslave"]Biggie is to rap, what the Beatles are to rock.

You can't disagree with facts... it's a fact that he revolutionized Rap because he was the one who pioneered the whole "story telling" aspect of Rap. This isn't really debatable...The Beatles started the Rock revolution, which is why they're so highly thought of. Biggie Smalls started the Rap revolution, which is why he is so highly thought of. He essentially invented a whole different sub genre of Rap, in a way.
Right, well, I'm glad you know nothing about Biggie. He was the pioneer of story telling rap. Yep, he didn't do anything big at all. Ever.[QUOTE="nickyb628"][QUOTE="wagexslave"]We've already seen a thousand documentaries and heard a million songs about biggie. He was a good rapper and all but he didn't do anything amazing...at all... ever... not once. So come on, enough of the milkage off his death. It's bad enough we have to get reminded of it in just about every other rap song out there.wagexslave
