The-Notorious-B.I.G - Ready To Die
One Of The Most Popular Notorious B.I.G Songs “Gimme The Loot” Is About Biggie And His Right-Hand Man Being Stick-Up Kids In The Streets Committing Various Robberies With Little Remorse For The Victims. Many Listeners Thought The Higher-Pitched Voice Was A Different Rapper But Biggie Provided Both Voices As Producer Easy Mo Bee Explained In A Ready To Die Retrospective For XXL “He Went In The Booth And Then It Just Kind Of Happened. He Just Started Doing It. He Would Do One Voice Then Come Behind And Do The Other One Later—just Like Leave A Gap So He Could Come Back And Fill The Spaces. I Was Like ‘Yo That’s Creative!’ And He Really Had Cats Fooled. Even Just Last Year I Was Around Somebody Who Was Playing That And Still After All This Time He Was Like ‘Yo Who Was That—that Was Puff?’ I Was Like ‘Man Y'all Really Can’t Hear That? That’s Him! He Did Two Voices.’ That Just Shows You How Good He Was.“ Nas Later Revealed Biggie Wanted Him On Ready To Die After Pictures Of The Pair In The Studio Together Surfaced. The Session Was Supposed To Be For The “Gimme The Loot” Remix But It Never Materialized.
