'Spit Your Game' is the second single by Notorious B.I.G. from his Duets: The Final Chapter album, a remixed album of Biggie Smalls' work. The song features guest appearances from Bone Thugs-N-Harmony's Krayzie Bone and Twista and sampled Walter Jackson's 'My Ship Is Coming In'. The single is a double A-side with 'Hold Ya Head', a song which samples 'Johnny Was' by Bob Marley.
The single was released on 24 April in the UK and reached No. 64 on the UK chart.
It is a modern rendition of Notorious B.I.G.'s and Bone Thugs-N-Harmony's acclaimed collaboration on the song 'Notorious Thugs'. In 'Notorious Thugs' Biggie changed his normally smooth flow to a faster melodic pace to emulate Bone's trademark flow and 'Spit Your Game' references this by including two fast verses by Twista and Krayzie Bone.
