Default Notorious B.I.G love for Lexus

I am a fan of Notorious BIG. I recently saw the movie that was released about his life and I think it spark new interest in his music again. Now that I am a Lexus owner I have noticed when I listen to lyrics that B.I.G was a a big fan of Lexus. When I did a little internet research I found out that BIG had a gold Lexus SUV when he became famous. He didnt have a license so he was usually driven in a big gold Lexus SUV. Here are some of the lyrics I can find

**" sex is all I expect if they watch TV in the Lex"

** " Lexus LS four and a half, bullet glass tints if I want some ***"

**" Diamond Necklaces and stretch Lexus's "

**" They heard about the Rolexes ad the Lexus"


I just thought it was cool to hear the Lexus love from one of the games biggest names. I have to admit I love hearing the Lexus name while I bump that old school Biggie and cruise in my dropped Lexus . It makes me feel like I am living my life like a rap video. LOL/LMAO

ps please guys lets not make this post a open discussion on hate for rap music, BIG, or the lyrics. Thaks

By the way, you guys should se the movie if you like Notorious BIG. It shows how he came up and even sheds a little light on the entire East/West BS and the drama with Tupac

Brooklyn's own Biggie never had a drivers license & could not truly appreciate Lexus or any car for that matter.. He was chauffeured.. It is amazing how his music has crossed over to the burbs throughout America after his death..

The lyrics are "Lexus LX four and a half" (as in LX450, which was the SUV before the LX470 came out)... never was a fan of that vehicle... 212 horsepower and 5000 pounds. It was definitely sluggish.

The LX in one year was the best selling SUV in its class though. It was clearly a Lexus Landcruiser as Lil Cease has stated in a song.

RIP Biggie. I am a big Jay Z fan and he had a 1GS back in 1994 too. Rumor was he still had it as of a few years ago. Not sure now.

Biggie Smalls is the illest; your style is played out, like Arnold with that, "What you talkin' bout Willis?"
