Letter from the dead to entrepreneurs and business minded fellas.
Ten “Crack/Business” Commandments by Notorious B.I.G.
Focus on the translation and not the original lyrics. Not promoting
drugs, violence or lewd words but seeing and extracting positive vibes
out of negativity to better humanity.
- Rule Number Uno “Never let no one know how much dough you hold cause
you know the cheddar breed jealousy 'specially If that man fucked up”-
It’s not smart to let others know how well you are doing, people do get
jealous especially when they are not doing well for themselves
-
Numero Due “Never let them know your next move, don't you know Bad Boys
move in silence and violence? Take it from your highness” - Keep your
plan to yourself, discussing with others is asking them to derail you
and possibly harm you
- Numero Tre “Never trust no-bo-dy
Your moms'll set that ass up” - Trust nobody, not even your mother
- Numero Quattro - “I know you heard this before
never get high on your own supply” - Business is business, don’t get
too comfortable but get paid. Never mix business with pleasure
-
Numero Cinque - “Never sell no crack where you rest at, I don't care if
they want a ounce, tell 'em bounce” - Wherever you work or live is your
sanctuary, respect it and find a balance
- Numero Sei - “That goddamn credit? Dead it,
you think a crackhead paying you back, shit forget it” - In business,
never sell on credit but strictly cash only/payment for every service
- Numero Sette - “This rule is so underrated,
keep your family and business completely separated, money and blood don't mix” - This is self-explanatory
- Numero Otto - “Never keep no weight on you” - In whatever business
you are in, being smart and thinking one step ahead is a necessity
- Numero Nove - “shoulda been Number 1 to me,If you ain't gettin'
bagged stay the fuck from police, If niggas think you snitchin' they
ain't trying to listen, they be sittin' in your kitchen, waiting to
start hittin” You can’t have your loyalty in doubt. You are either
in our out, there is no middle ground. Loyalty is key in business
- “If you ain't got the clientele, say "hell no!" - You will focus on
building a fan base, followers or database before introducing your
product, then smile to the bank
The above rules are like
proverbs, not to be understood word for word but for the few with the
ability to think and dissect words
