Hip Hop: in the grave or not?
Notorious B.I.G. featuring Snoop Dogg, Nate Dogg, Fabolous & Busta Rhymes "Runnin Your Mouth" [audio streams: windows | real] - I think I had this track or a link to it on the site months ago when it was an internet leak (with a verse from Fox Brown maybe??). Now's it's available officially on Biggie's Greatest Hits which is in stores TOMORROW. Even though this is probably a nice little collection for younger hip hop fans to get introduced to the late great B.I., why do I feel like Puff and crew are really trying to pick every last dollar off the carcas of Christopher Wallace?
