Intro - Good intro that picks up right where "Ready To Die" left off (literally). This is a great follow-up to "Ready To Die". It's a classic album sprawled over two discs (24 songs) and there isn't really that much filler (if any).

After three years, Biggie dropped this epic in 1997. It's basically a sequel to his first album and it picks up right where "Ready To Die" left off, as do his skills. "Life After Death" is not quite as good as his 1st album and it's not as dark or raw but it's still an excellent CD. Those are some big shoes to fill and leave it to Biggie to manage to create a classic on his second album as well. I think that it is the best rap album ever made. came out with a classic album in 1994 entitled "Ready To Die". BTW.make sure you pick up the original 1994 copyrighted release or the 2004 copyrighted release with the bonus dvd & avoid the 2006 re-release as the songs "machine gun funk" & "ready to die" have been tampered with, with the parliament & bridgeport samples being removed from those 2 songs, which is'nt a good thing. avoid this release & pick-up ready to die & life after death. theres no excuse that diddy could come up with for this half-a****, poor excuse for a release. this is the man's 10 year anniversary of his death & he gets treated this way?. all 4 of these problems i listed above keep this from being the truly great ultimate release from B.I.G. forth.maybe some extra's such as some glossy fleer-styled cards with complete song lyrics for all the songs & rare pictures of B.I.G., with his crew, his family, on the mic, live on stage, etc(would been great for collector's). theres no digi-pack packaging or book style packaging(though diddy has it for his limited edition version of his press play cd, figure that one out). some type of special packaging for this release. third.how come diddy could'nt of gave B.I.G. second.would'nt it had only been right to include a second disc.a dvd anthology of every one of B.I.G.'s videos remastered in 5.1 surround, along with the actual greatest hits album put on the same dvd in a 5.1 surround dvd audio mix playlist(5.1 videos & 5.1 dvd-audio will fit together on a dual-layered single-sided dvd disc).

this is extremely frustrating for completest, who want all the greatest hits in one spot/package. wheres mo money mo problems, goin' back to cali, & the one i that could'nt belive that did'nt make the cut.sky's the limit?. first of all the tracklist that should of been, is incomplete. a single disc GH's release for the great B.I.G.?. is a strait-up cash-in, i need more money scam from diddy. anyway this greatest hits cd made for B.I.G. this is stricly about the overall product at hand. beginners should seek out "įirst of all the rating i gave has nothing to do with biggie himself. This album is worth it if you're only passively interested in Notorious B.I.G.'s biggest radio hits (and don't mind paying for a lot of filler). But no, sadly, neither of the first two tracks are anywhere to be found, while the latter track and "Notorious Thugs" (with Bone Thgs-N-Harmony) made it onto the album. Removing the layer of artist purity, one would expect radio hits like the massive tribute release "I'll Be Missing You" or duets like "Mo Money, Mo Problems" (with Diddy), especially since minor hits like Junior M.A.F.I.A.'s "Get Money" made the cut. While half of the release lives up to its premise with choice cuts from B.I.G.'s brief but brilliant studio album output like "Juicy," "Hypnotize" and "One More Chance/Stay With Me," the other half is muddled with posthumously-released cuts that are more vehicles for guest artists like Nelly and Eminem than true Biggie classics. An artist with as influential (and short) a career as Christopher Wallace, aka The Notorious B.I.G., is done a disservice by an album like "Greatest Hits," especially since it was conceived as a tribute to the Brooklyn rapper 10 years after his tragic death.
