Hard Times Music: Suicidal Thoughts by The Notorious B.I.G.

After referencing Biggie in the previous Hard Times post, it seemed appropriate to give Big Poppa his own piece of digital real estate.

  • The machismo and posturing typical in Hip Hop is pushed aside in this song.  Behind it, you find some simple emotions and insecurities that are easy to identify with: disappointing your parents, regret, weariness.
  • This is probably my favorite song by The Notorious B.I.G. and one of my favorite songs by any artist.

I wonder if I died, would tears come to her eyes
Forgive me for my disrespect, forgive me for my lies
