Ok well in his song "juicy" from Ready To Die, he says

"Now I'm in the limelight 'cause I rhyme tight/Time to get paid, blow up like the World Trade"

Kinda odd, but im guessing he's refering to the attack in feb 1993 when a car bomb tried to blow up the world trade center right? I'm pretty sure this is right but im wondering what other people think.
 
ha i noticed that the other day but then thought about it, the wtc had the bottom floors blown up in a failed attempt to take them down so that was what he was reffering to
 
yea he's referring to the 93 bombings. being from NYC and all, he reps that shit all the time.
 
i was listening to a remixed version of it, and they blocked out the WTC reference. I don't think they shouldn't anyone who does there research or thinks for 3 seconds knows it's the 93 bombing.
 
wow this is old. good one buddy. if you were a true BIG fan you would have already known that. gosh
 
Actually no, you're all wrong. In Loose Change 3, they give a completely reasonable and truthful explination for that line that the government doesn't want you to know. It turns out B.I.G. is a reference to page 84 of the Al-Queda terrorist handbook that was found in George Bush senior's Texas farm house. B.I.G. knew about the attack and put it in one of his songs to warn people of future events, but the government found out his plan and murdered Tupac then B.I.G. to make it look like a gang war and cover up their steps. Duh people.
 
ya 93, when they play the song on the radio now they block that shit out, which i think is kinda stupid. nothing agaisnt what happened but hes not even talking about what happened in 2000 i meen this song came out way before this ever happened. 95 i think.
 
In a Tupac song, ah i cvant think of it right now, he says something around the lines like crashing down like the world trade center. Tupac knew what the deal was, he has shit in his songs that he made way earlier that still make sense today
