More then anything the movie really made me sad again at how tragic a loss both Big and Pac were to the hip hop community. It was so unnecessary. Obviously the movie told the story from one perspective but I really would like to talk to all those people involved and here multiple views on the events that lead up to their deaths.

When it came to movie reviews your posts are usually the closest to what I end up thinking about movies, so now I am skeptical. I believe I will wait till it comes on cinemax, or someone I know has the dvd.

I mean, I had to see the movie even if it was the most horribly acted movie on the planet. I know his mom and Puffy had a lot to do with the movie so the events that were in it I don't doubt took place similar to ho they were portrayed. The thing is though a lot of the scenes were like reenactments of a verse he spit. Which is kinda cool for a video but I don't know if it was as personal as it could have been. The relationship between Lil Kim and Biggy and Faith and Biggy was interesting to see played out on screen. The girl who played Kim did a pretty good job. And here titties were mad nice.

The movie also made me sad AGAIN at the state of hip hip. Watching that movie gets me reminiscing about my life specifically through 1995-1999. How in love with hip hop I was. How much there was to love. It just felt different then it does now.

Its a trip, rappers during that era had great grammar and didnt slur their words.. even for high school drop outs lol. Now a days id think some rappers where elementary drop outs lol.

Biggie was a bit before my generation. To tell the truth I have heard very few of his songs. I heard/have a lot of pac though. I have been skeptical about this movie from its inception. I know as much about him and pac dying as BET documentaries have told me. So I am going into this one with lowered expectations. I find doing that can make a meh movie into an okay one.

That's true. The intelligence factor seems to have been removed from hip hop.

Do you remember when Forever was released? I mean that double CD had more big words in it then the last 5 years of hip hop records combined.

This is why I still love Jay-Z. He still releases the stuff for the radio but his albums are still filled with intellect that is absent elsewhere.

Man that trips me out. You seem like a cool cat though. Not a knuckle head like a lotta kids out there.

You should go pick up Ready to Die and Life After Death when you get a chance. They are without question two of the best hip hop, fuck that MUSIC albums ever created. As a hip hop fan you owe it to yourself to have those albums in your collection. If I lost all my music somehow they would be the very next albums I'd replace after my Jay-Z collection.

Thanks Mel, I enjoy a wide variety of music, and unlike a lot of people in my age group I don't let the music I listen to, define who I am.

If I did, I would be a very confused individual. Right now on my Ipod, contains music from, Lupe Fiasco, Three 6 Mafia, MC Chris,Gucci Mane, Beastie boys, Slipknot, Insane Clown Posse, Drake, Kid Cudi, Dethklock, Linkin park Kayne, etc. etc.

Looking to add, Nas, and more heavey metal(really late on him, but his old stuff will be new to me so eh).

I think all genres of music have their time and place. Sometimes I want to hear ignorant, simple stuff with a good bass line and comically bad lyrics. Other times I want to hear something intelligent and deep, or something that makes me break out the air drums.

But no matter what I listen to, I will still just be me.
