Analyzing Juicy

This song by Biggie smalls chronicles his life from when he was in the streets and hustlin' to make money, to when he made it in, " The limelight". In this song biggie uses a lot of metaphors to describe his fame.  He says," Time to get paid blow up like the world trade." He is not actually blowing up he is saying his fame is growing. Another instance is when he says," Honies play me close like butter played toast." Notorious B.I.G is saying that the girls are loving him now that he is famous and he compares them to butter on toast. Another aspect Biggie uses is flashbacks, he explains his fame then looks back," Thinking back on my one-room shack." He is letting us know that he still remembers where he came from. Biggie also uses a lot of exaggeration.  He says," When I was dead broke man i couldn't picture this." He was not not dead it is a expression meaning he has no money.
