    im not talking it any way lol I just think it's r-----ed to say it doesn't count because it's not as big as his other albums

    If Biggie made a s-----y album before Ready to Die that wasn't as successful would we not say Ready to Die is his second album?

    Multiple, multiple artists have made many independent albums prior to their major label debut and they're never counted in these discussions.
