“Mo money mo problems” is a hip hop/rap track by the Notorious B.I.G featuring Sean Combs and Mase from the album Life after Death.
Released after the rapper’s death, the track topped the Billboard Hot 100 in 1997 for two weeks.
It was later nominated for the 1998 Grammy Award for the best rap performance by a duo or group. As one of the most popular hip hop singles, the song instrumentals possess a bit of the low pitched version of “I’m coming out’ by Diana Ross.
After Christopher Wallace died, the song became number one on the Billboard list while the UK charts placed it at number six.
The video featured Mase and Puffy while images of Kelly Price lip-syncing to the sample of Diana Ross’ voice.
Since the Notorious B.I.G had already passed on, archival footage syncing with his vocals was shown as the only way for him to appear in the video.
It’s one of the greatest songs ever recorded in the 90’s with their wardrobe gaining more attention since it was flashy.
Over 5000 copies were sold even after the track was succeeded by Puff Daddy and later Mariah Carey’s track “honey” the track continues to be remembered by famous rappers or being featured on movies and series.
Jay-Z and Ludacris refer this track on some of their single hits, in the series how I met your mother, a reference to the song is made by Barney in a dream.
While Linkin Park refers to the song on their track “when they come for me” a remake of “mo money mo problems” was done by Irv Gotti, a music producer, featuring the famous Keysha Cole and Iggy Azalea for the film the other woman.
It was the entrance song for the mixed martial artist Conor McGregor vs Floyd Mayweather fight, also known as The Money Fight , The Biggest Fight in Combat Sports History, held in the T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada, on August 26, 2017 with Mayweather earning more than $300 million, whereas lucky loser McGregor earned more than $100 million.

Album - Life After Death
Now, who's hot who not
Tell me who rock who sell out in the stores
You tell me who flopped who copped the blue drop
Who jewels got robbed who's mostly Goldie down
To the tube sock, the same ol pimp
Mase, you know ain't nothing change but my limp
Can't stop till I see my name on a blimp
Guarantee a million sales pulling all the love
You don't believe in Harlem World nigga double up
We don't play around it's a bet lay it down
Nigga didn't know me ninety-one bet they know me now
I'm the young Harlem nigga with the Goldie sound
Can't no PHD niggas hold me down, Cooter
Schooled me to the game, now I know my duty
Stay humble stay low blow like Hootie
True pimp niggas spend no dough on the booty
And then ya yell there go Mase there go your cutie
I don't know what, they want from me
It's like the more money we come across
The more problems we see
(2 times)
Yeah yeah, ahaha, I'm the C-to-the-A-to-the-D-D-Y
Know you'd rather see me die than to see me fly
I call all the shots
Rip all the spots, rock all the rocks
Cop all the drops, I know you thinking now's
When all the balling stops, nigga never
Home gotta call me on the yacht
Ten years from now we'll still be on top
Yo, I thought I told you that we won't stop
Now what you gonna do when it's cool
Bag a money much longer than yours
And a team much stronger than yours, violate me
This'll be your day, we don't play
Mess around be D.O.A., be on your way
Cause it ain't enough time here, ain't enough lime here
For you to shine here, deal with many women
But treat dimes fair, and I'm
Bigger than the city lights down in Times Square
Yeah, yeah yeah
I don't know what, they want from me
It's like the more money we come across
The more problems we see
( 2 times)
Uhh, uhhh
B.I.G., P-O, P-P-A
No info, for the, DEA
Federal agents mad cause I'm flagrant
Tap my cell, and the phone in the basement
My team supreme, stay clean
Triple beam lyrical dream, I be that
Cat you see at all events bent
Gats in holsters girls on shoulders
Playboy, I told ya, being mice to me
Bruise too much, I lose, too much
Step on stage the girls boo too much
I guess it's cause you run with lame dudes too much
Me lose my touch, never that
If I did, ain't no problem to get the gat
Where the true players at?
Throw your rollies in the sky
Wave em side to side and keep their hands high
While I give your girl the eye, player please
Lyrically, niggas see, B.I.G.
Be flossing jig on the cover of Fortune
Five double oh, here's my phone number
Your name, I got to know, I got to go
Got the flow down phizat, platinum plus
Like thizat, dangerous
On trizack, leave your ass kizzack
I don't know what, they want from me
It's like the more money we come across
The more problems we see
[3 times]
What's going on?
What's going on?
I don't know what, they want from me
It's like the more money we come across
The more problems we see
