- “Juicy” (1994) The Notorious B.I.G. didn’t really care for doing what would become his most beloved hit. He apparently wanted Ready to Die to center on hard-edge East Coast rap and needed some convincing from Puff to do otherwise.
- “Hypnotize” (1997) Life After Death saw the Notorious B.I.G. graduating from street survivalism to mafioso narratives told behind Versace shades. “Hypnotize” was the introduction to Biggie’s nouveau riche era, which is why it feels brave that the Bad Boy chose production that’s minimal by the label’s standards.
- Craig Mack’s “Flava in Ya Ear (Remix)” ft. The Notorious B.I.G., Rampage, Busta Rhymes, Puff Daddy, and LL Cool J (1994) The late Craig Mack gave Bad Boy Records its first hit with the Platinum-selling “Flava in Ya Ear.”
- “Notorious Thugs” ft. Bone Thugs-n-Harmony (1997) “Notorious Thugs” is the trump card for every Notorious B.I.G.- as-GOAT debate because it’s the most resounding proof of his technical versatility.
