"When I die fuck it, I wanna go to hell cause I'm a piece of shit, it ain't hard to fucking tell" This is one of the most hardest opening lines in music history, period.
-
This song changed my life, made me look at hip hop differently. I had never heard anything like it
-
This song, concept and beat was so far ahead of its time. Nigga if that shit dropped today, it would still be as hard as fuck
-
I think BIG is slept on cause of his commercial hits. His album tracks were dark and deep.
-
This song is so dark and epic like the words paint this cloudy picture. It's sad that it's relatable.
-
The imagery he paints in the song has always been what sticks out the most to me. Also the fact that he's even willing to make a song called suicidal thoughts in the 1st place is one of the things only biggie could pull off. I know a lot of people don't like it and say it's too dark but I think a lot of people can relate to it and that's what makes it beautiful. Its like listening to a movie.
-
Y'all need to do more of these videos they have potential to be pretty interesting depending on the person & music 👌
-
Biggie had the technique, flow and could go deep with the bars if he wanted to. The GOAT.
-
AY YO BIG?........ AY YO BIIIIG!?!?!?
-
BIG was brave, back then hiphop and rap was about being the toughest and coldest guy, no one talked about their mental health or feelings that was "soft" but BIG really did that and it changed things ever since.
-
Suicidal Thoughts was my every day anthem when I was 12 years old and still is and I'm 19 now, we need real shit like this back on the streams
-
Keep this series.
-
I hate when great songs are ruined by a terrible hook/chorus. Biggie seemed like the only rapper who knew that you dont need a hook to have a great song. Thats why hes the GOAT.
-
This song is my therapy and helps me through the storms
-
Don't care what you say, biggie isn't overrated. He deserves AT LEAST one of the 3 spots in the top 3 of all time. He's a monster lyricist
-
A$AP Ferg has a very nice personality , love you ferg
-
Biggie was so versatile honest and real for real.R.I.P
-
Biggie is so artistic that I have scenes in my head when listening to his albums thinking he had music videos of the tracks
-
we went from suicidal thoughts too "push me to the edge, all my friends are dead" 😂
-
Biggie was the best rapper to this day.... His lyrics this flow and the way he understood the way of life he lived and the repercussions of it. He knew he was gonna die and embraced it.
