It's definitely worth noting that the tune was nominated for Best Rap Solo Performance at the 1998 Grammy Awards, and is also considered one of the greatest hip-hop songs of the 1990s.
However, with my biased opinion aside, the fact still remains that "Hypnotize" continues to be one of the rapper's most popular songs.
And I'll also admit that I may, perhaps, hold a tad bit of sentiment for this song in particular, because it was the last music video recorded by the late emcee. Now, before you go getting all upset about my choice, I will acknowledge that there are many songs that, of course, deserve major accolades on this 20th Biggie anniversary. Cole even took to the stage to perform a mash-up of "Hypnotize" during a concert in L.A., which certainly points out the importance that the song continues to hold in hip-hop history. Then there was that one time in 2012, when the Kardashian family made a music video to the tune during their vacay in the Dominican Republic. While a major hit for the rapper in the late '90s, the number-one single also saw a surprising reemergence onto the Billboard charts just a few years ago, garnering an uptick of more than 633 percent from the previous week and racked up more than 4 million plays during March 2015, all thanks to modern technology and a viral video of Earl Sinclair from the early 1990s' television series, The Dinosaurs, appearing to rap along with the iconic tune. But I'd definitely be kidding myself if I didn't acknowledge that "Hypnotize" would be just as popular in 2017 as it was when it first dropped in early 1997. I mean, there have been tons of rap songs and hip-hop jams created in the years since that fateful night where Biggie was tragically gunned down after an awards ceremony in L.A. songs that have the same impact today as they did back when they were released in the '90s. Despite the passing of two decades, there are actually Notorious B.I.G. If you compare this song to, say, Candy Shop by 50 Cent, it is really no comparison.I probably don't have to remind everyone that Biggie Smalls is still, in fact, "the illest" 20 years after his untimely death on March 9, 1997. That doesn't mean he was the only good rapper, but by that time, he was gone, Tupac was gone, Dre had already released The Chronic, and rap was beginning to descend into what it is today.absolute garbage. I always said that rap died when Biggie died. Matt from Millbrae, CaThis is one of the best rap songs.Breige from Co.clare, Irelandit's in 10 Things I Hate ABout You at the house party when Kat starts to dance on the table.The chorus is a direct steal from Slick Rick but it sounds like his own work. Paul from London, EnglandArguably Biggy's best, and a testimony to his inventiveness and ability to make any sample work for him.Jason from Boulder, Co"La Di Da Di" was not, obviously, "sampled" for the chorus.Flo from Toulouse, FranceMy girlfriend and me we love this song !!! Check Lady Saw's "No Long Talking" remix using this riddim."between the sheets" as opposed to "big poppa". but i prefer listening to alperts "rise" to hypnotize.
