Red Oni, Blue Oni: The two bank robbers in "Gimme the Loot" ( both played by Biggie). Easy Mo Bee handled the majority of the production, but there are also beats by DJ Premier, Lord Finesse, the Trackmasters, Darnell Scott, Chucky Thompson and the Bluez Brothers (no, not these guys). Record Producer: Bad Boy labelhead and Biggie's best bud Puffy serves as executive producer. Rags to Riches: "Juicy" is all about this. One-Word Title: "Warning", "Juicy", "Respect" and "Unbelievable". The title makes sense when you realize that it samples "Juicy Fruit" by Mtume, but the word doesn't appear anywhere in the song. Manly Tears: Biggie starts crying when he finds out his girlfriend's been murdered at the end of "Me & My Bitch". Gangsta Rap: A mix of Blue Collar, Commercial and Hardcore, with a pinch of Mafioso (the Mafioso influence would become greater on his second album). Driven to Suicide: "Suicidal Thoughts". It's softened a bit on the Remaster version, which ends the album with the bonus tracks "Who Shot Ya?" and "Just Playing (Dreams)", but "Suicidal Thoughts" is still the true ending. The whole album ends with "Suicidal Thoughts", which finds Biggie contemplating and finally committing suicide. He goes to her, but it's too late - she's been shot dead. "Me & My Bitch" ends with Biggie getting a distress page from his titular girlfriend. Donut Mess with a Cop: In "Gimme the Loot", after robbing the bank, stealing a getaway car and robbing the couple inside, the younger robber freaks out when he sees the cops nearby, but the older one just says "Be cool, fool / they ain't gonna roll up, all they want is fuckin' donuts." He underestimated them. Disappeared Dad: Referenced in "The What", where Biggie complains that, "Pop Duke left mom Duke. Bookends: The album starts and ends with life and death: the intro begins with a childbirth scene, and the closing track "Suicidal Thoughts" ends with Biggie committing suicide. We don't find out who won a sample of Ice Cube saying "Take that, muthafuckas!" is heard, but that could be from either party. Bolivian Army Ending: "Gimme the Loot" ends with Biggie and his accomplice getting cornered by the cops and engaging them in a shootout. Although infamous due to preceding the 9/11 attacks, the line ".blow up like the world trade" from "Juicy", which referred to the 1993 bombings, was still a pretty morbid joke at the time, given that it killed eight people and injured over a thousand. "I wouldn't give a fuck if you're pregnant / gimme the baby rings, and the #1 Mom pendant!" The shining example is probably "Gimme the Loot" you can't help but laugh at a lot of Biggie's lines just because they're so mean. Black Comedy: Most of the humor on the album is this. 
Bank Robbery: "Gimme the Loot" is about two criminals ( both rapped by Biggie) sticking up a bank.Album Title Drop: Shockingly enough, "Ready to Die".album charts and featured the hits “Hypnotize” and “Mo Money Mo Problems.” It remains one of the few hip-hop albums to ever achieve Diamond certification from the RIAA."I love it when you call me Big Tro-pa! Throw your hands in the air, if you's a true playa." His debut Ready to Die arrived in 1994 and helped revitalize the East Coast rap scene with massive hits like “Big Poppa” and “Juicy.” Life After Death was released in March 1997 just weeks after he was shot and killed in Los Angeles. Before his murder in 1997, Christopher Wallace recorded two classic albums as The Notorious B.I.G.
