Word is bond thun, you don't know? Y'all don't even understand MCing
then. It's all about the charisma and the way he emphasizes certain
words. See, y'all aren't even an MC, so how can you go and make a
judgement like that? Some of y'all geek asses on here don't know shit,
and all ya do is listen to them whiteboy backpacker cats. It's true
dun. Now, let me drop a gem on ya. Biggie was good because this one
time I was stylin down by the Tunnel with a fresh fade, a blue
Davoucci leather piece, some fly Dada kicks, and some Avirex jawns.
Shit was dope. So we get in, and I'm dancing up a storm, because I'm a
muthafucka who knows how to dance, ya know....not like them bitches
who wallpaper the club. And then this fly chickenhead steps up and
she's rubbing all over me, and I know she wants to worship the D, but
I play it off like "Naw man, I can get better than this", and just
straight up stoneface her. So anyways, about 2 songs later, Biggie
comes on, and his charisma was enough to not only get me one chicken,
but two. About two hours later I'm back at the crib, and these
cluckers is just tired as fuck because of the poundin I gave em. So
that's why Biggie was great. Although no one will ever top Nas, who
I'd willingly get on my knees for if I ever saw him on the street.
One.
