Notorious B.I.G.
Ready To Die is the monumental 1994 debut studio album from hip-hop legend The Notorious B.I.G. Executive produced by Sean "Puffy" Combs and released on Bad Boy Records, the album single handedly shifted rap's focal point back to the East Coast. A cinematic autobiographical masterpiece, it navigates Biggie’s journey from street hustler to rap superstar, held together by his effortless flow, unmatched narrative detail, and dark, humorous charm.
This double vinyl is housed in a single pocket jacket featuring the restored iconic cover artwork of a baby resembling Biggie. This master delivers rich, booming bass and crisp drum dynamics, letting the lush sample work of Easy Mo Bee, DJ Premier, and Poke shine alongside Biggie’s booming vocal presence.
The 17 track album is stacked with hip-hop history, including the radio dominating party anthem "Juicy", the smooth crossover smash "Big Poppa", the hard hitting "Gimme the Loot", and the ominous title track "Ready to Die".
Widely recognised as one of the greatest and most influential hip-hop albums ever recorded, Ready To Die is a vital cornerstone pressing for any serious vinyl collection.
