I was inspired by finding the 2012 copy of Rolling Stone's top 500 albums ever I picked up several years ago in an airport.
First up was Biggie Smalls' Ready to Die. Stuck it on in Amazon Prime and switched on the lyrics. Quite something. Spitting out prose like a good 'un. The interlude "track" of him screwing a lady came over a bit unnecessary though. I didn't hang around for all 18 tracks as I suspect it's saying the same few things 18 times. But I'm holding judgement. I will go back but only for the poetry which I found accessible. I think I'd rather read his lyrics than listen to then..
