"It was all a dream, I used 2 read Word Up magazine, Salt N Peppa and Heavy D up in the limosuine, hanging pictures on my wall, every Saturday, Rap attack, Mr.Magic, Marley Maul."

Biggie - Juicy


This is the most memorable opening line to any rap song I can think of. Biggie's delivery was just so commanding and he forced you 2 pay attention 2 him. The song came out at a time (if U were in NY) when rap music needed a facelift.

I love that song too. I still got the video razz deemed to racy at the time. Now it looks so tame. The saxophone player is still the hottest thing ever.
