Juicy - The Notorious B.I.G. - MP3 instrumental karaoke

Few debut singles have had such a long-lasting impact on the world of hip-hop as The Notorious B.I.G.'s "Juicy." Featuring a sample of funk group Mtume's 1983 single "Juicy Fruit," the track documents Biggie's ascent from poverty to international stardom, offering a detailed depiction of his previous involvement with street crime and his sumptuous lifestyle after finding fame. It was officially released as a single on August 9, 1994, and was later included in The Notorious B.I.G.'s Platinum-selling studio debut Ready to Die. Produced by Poke (of Trackmasters fame) and Sean "Puffy" Combs, "Juicy" reached the top of Billboard's US Hot Rap Singles chart and was certified Gold in the United States after selling more than 500,000 units. It also sparked some controversy with producer Pete Rock, who claims that Sean "Puffy" Combs stole the idea from him after hearing the original beat at his house.
