The Notorious B.I.G: Ready to Die (1994) Ep. 22

We talk about the 90's hit by the Notorious B.I.G. We delve right into the music and our memories but we have to get some stuff out of the way to begin. We get a caller to the BECK LINE who shares her favorite dirty Christmas song and the rest of the episode is a true cakewalk.    The reviews are in from experts in the art of speech and we talk about the worst conversations you can be in. Then we start out an epic tale of baking cookies and we go on our own flavor story. Speaking of stories, we delve into the master storytelling of Christopher Wallace while we listen to the first gangster rap album on the list.    Aaron revisits the Kurtis Blow news corner and then talks funk in Ohio (including the Ohio Payers) and of course talks Parliament/ Fred Wesley and the Horny Horns.  We also revisit the 90's with some pager talk and a review of the g funk sound and talk about the east coast/ west coast feud and then we end with everyone's favorite segment, "THE RATING SYSTEM (TM)."
