This song is what puts Biggie under classic hip hop. His ability to story tell. "I Got A Story To Tell" is about him in bed with a girl and her husband gets home while he's still there. Crazy. This was probably Biggie's best aspect, was his story telling ability. Here's "I Got A Story To Tell" off of his '97 "Life After Death. Production by Buckwild and Chucky Thompson.
She giggled, saying I'm smokin on homegrown
Then I heard a moan, "Honey I'm home"
Yep, tote chrome for situations like this
I'm up in his broad, I know he won't like this
Now I'm like bitch, you better talk to em
Before the fifth put a spark to em
Alot of people know this intro.
When I die, fuck it I wanna go to hell
Cuz Im a piece a shit, it aint hard to fuckin tell
It dont make sense goin to heaven with the goodie goodies
Dressed in white, I like black Timbs and black hoodies
God'll probly have me on some real strict shit
No sleepin all day, no gettin my dick licked
Hangin with the goodie goodies, loungin in paradise
Fuck that, I wanna tote guns and shoot dice
Produced by Lord Finesse off his '94 "Ready To Die" is "Suicidal Thoughts". Which starts off him contemplating suicide to Puffy over the phone and then commiting suicide. Once again, his ability to story tell is remarkable.
Definitely a HOOD CLASSIC. Sampled from "Between The Sheets" by The Isley Brothers. Wow I would throw ALL the mothafucking lyrics but you should know em already.
Straight up honey, really I'm askin
Most of these niggaz think they be mackin
But they be actin, who they attractin
With that line? What's yo name? What's yo sign?
As soon as he by that wine
I just creep up from behind
And ask you what yo interests are
Who you be with? things that make you smile
What numbers to dial? You gone be here for a while?
Chorus: I love it when ya call me Big Poppa.
Throw ya hands in tha air if yous a true playa
I love it when you call me Big Poppa
To my honeys gettin money, playin niggaz like dummys
I love it when you call me Big Poppa
You got a gun up in ya waist? Please dont shoot up the place. "Why?"
Cuz I see some ladies tonight, that should be havin my baby, baby
Off of "Ready To Die" and produced by Puffy and Chuck Thompson is "Big Poppa".
peace, love, and nappiness
