The Notorious B.I.G - Greatest Hits
A week before meeting his untimely death, the American rapper Notorious B.I.G released "Hypnotize" from his album Life After Death on March 1, 1997.
The track reached number one trampling Puff Daddy’s song "Can’t Nobody Hold Me Down" after his passing away and maintained that spot for weeks, before being replaced by Hanson’s "MMMBop" on May 24.
The track has since been referenced in various pop cultures including fashion lines, clothing, television shows and films like the Star Wars, Starsky & Hutch, Roots, King of New York, Ritchie Rich (comic and cartoon character), Underoos (children’s clothing), and finally the Versace, DKNY, Moschino and Coogi (popular fashion lines).
In 2009, the track served as a theme song on the motion picture Notorious while the Fox show The Mick had the song sang briefly by the character Sofia Black-D’Ella.
2017 has been a great year for the track as it was used commercially for Oreo Thins and promoted the Baywatch movie.
On being released, the track became number two on the Billboard but it was already a hit song in the United States radio even before being issued as a single.
Notorious made history in the Hot 100 by becoming the fifth artists on top of the chart after his track hit number one after his death.
Having scored a nomination for the Best Rap Solo Performance at the 1998 Grammy Awards, the track lost to Will Smith’s Men in Black.
However, Kris Ex of Pitchfork praised Biggie with his natural talent to sound powerful and sing to the rhythm and according to 50 Cent via NME, he would want the song to be played at his funeral.
It's video was filmed a mot=nth after his death in LA, California and was directed by Paul Hunter.
Puff Daddy and B.I.G appear to showcase a lavish lifestyle of partying with supermodels but later interrupted by helicopters and motorbikes chasing them. A minimum of over 500,000 copies has been sold throughout the US and UK so far.
The Notorious B.I.G - Hypnotize - Lyrics
Release Date - March 1, 1997
Album - Life After Death
Uh, uh, uh, c'mon
Hah, sicka than your average
Poppa twist cabbage off instinct
niggas don't think shit stink, pink gators,
my Detroit players
Timbs for my hooligans in Brooklyn
Dead right, if the head right, Biggie there ery'night
Poppa been smooth since days of Underroos
Never lose, never choose to, bruise crews who
Do something to us, talk go through us
Girls walk to us, wanna do us, screw us
Who us? Yeah, Poppa and Puff (hehehe)
Close like Starsky and Hutch, stick the clutch
Dare I squeeze three at your cherry M-3 (Take that, take that, take that, haha!)
Bang every MC easily, busily
Recently niggas frontin ain't sayin' nuttin' (nope) so I just
Speak my piece, (c'mon) keep my piece
Cubans with the Jesus piece (thank you God), with my peeps
Packin', askin' who want it, you got it nigga flaunt it
That Brooklyn bullshit, we on it
Biggie Biggie Biggie can't you see
Sometimes your words just hypnotize me
And I just love your flashy ways
Guess that's why they broke, and you're so paid (uh)
Biggie Biggie Biggie (uh-huh) can't you see (uh)
Sometimes your words just hypnotize me (hypnotize)
And I just love your flashy ways (uh-huh)
Guess that's why they broke, and you're so paid (uh)
I put hoes in NY onto DKNY (uh-huh)
Miami, D.C. prefer Versace (that's right)
All Philly hoes, dough and Moschino (c'mon)
Every cutie wit a booty bought a Coogi (hah!)
Now who's the real dookie, meanin' who's really the shit
Them niggas ride dicks, Frank White push the sticks
On the Lexus, LX, four and a half
Bulletproof glass tints if I want some ass
Gon' blast squeeze first ask questions last
That's how most of these so-called gangsters pass
At last, a nigga rappin' bout blunts and broads
Tits and bras, menage-a-tois, sex in expensive cars
I still leave you on the pavement
Condo paid for, no car payment
At my arraignment, note for the plantiff
Your daughter's tied up in a Brooklyn basement (shhh)
Face it, not guilty, that's how I stay filthy (not guilty)
Richer than Richie, till you niggas come and get me
Biggie Biggie Biggie can't you see
Sometimes your words just hypnotize me
And I just love your flashy ways
Guess that's why they broke, and you're so paid (uh)
Biggie Biggie Biggie (uh-huh) can't you see (uh)
Sometimes your words just hypnotize me (hypnotize)
And I just love your flashy ways (uh-huh)
Guess that's why they broke, and you're so paid (uh)
I can fill ya wit' real millionaire shit (I can fill ya)
Escargot, my car go, one sixty, swiftly
Wreck it buy a new one
Your crew run run run, your crew run run
I know you sick of this, name brand nigga wit'
Flows girls say he's sweet like licorice
So get with this nigga, it's easy
Girlfriend here's a pen, call me round ten
Come through, have sex on rugs that's Persian (that's right)
Come up to your job, hit you while you workin' (uh) for certain,
Poppa freakin', not speakin'
Leave that ass leakin, like rapper demo
Tell them hoe, take they clothes off slowly
Hit 'em wit' the force like Obe, dick black like Toby (Obe, Toby)
Watch me roam like Gobe, lucky they don't owe me
Where the safe show me, homey (say what, homey)
Biggie Biggie Biggie can't you see
Sometimes your words just hypnotize me
And I just love your flashy ways
Guess that's why they broke, and you're so paid (uh)
Biggie Biggie Biggie (uh-huh) can't you see (uh)
Sometimes your words just hypnotize me (hypnotize)
And I just love your flashy ways (uh-huh)
Guess that's why they broke, and you're so paid (uh)
Biggie Biggie Biggie can't you see
Sometimes your words just hypnotize me
And I just love your flashy ways
Guess that's why they broke, and you're so paid (uh)
Biggie Biggie Biggie (uh-huh) can't you see (uh)
Sometimes your words just hypnotize me (hypnotize)
And I just love your flashy ways (uh-huh)
Guess that's why they broke, and you're so paid (uh)
Biggie Biggie Biggie can't you see
Sometimes your words just hypnotize me
And I just love your flashy ways
Guess that's why they broke, and you're so paid
