Where Brooklyn At?

Today is March 9th... a day that will forever go down in infamy for hip hop fans everywhere. 15 years ago today The Notorious B.I.G. was gunned down in Los Angeles after performing a show. It came at the height of the East Coast/West Coast rap wars and just a few short years after Tupac himself had been gunned downed. I remember the day vividly... I was at the mall with my friend Anthony in Upstate NY when Hot 97 made the announcement. It wasn't the current era of instant news and real time updates via the web. The news was slow to come out and wasn't really confirmed until much later in the day. All I know is that I was crushed. My favorite rapper was gone, just a few short weeks before the world would get to hear his second album. God I miss ya B.I.G... Check out a few of my favorite Biggie videos after the jump so we could celebrate the man who was taken from us far to soon. To quote Canabis "... Because the greatest rapper of all time died on March 9th!!!"

Call The Crib, Same Number, Same Hood... It's All Good!!!

You ever wonder who that fat faced, afro sportin' kid on the cover of The Notorious B.I.G.'s 'Ready To Die' album cover was? Was it Biggie? Was it his son CJ? Was it one of Puffy's kids? Nope... it was Bronx teenager Keithroy Yearwood... and he didn't make much for the shoot. 150 bucks for two hours. Not bad money, but not Playa, Playa money either.

Thanks for the tip JB!!!

The Greatest Rapper Of All Time Died On March 9th

My favorite rapper of all time was The Notorious B.I.G. No one repped BK or NYC harder then Biggie, especially in the early 90's when the West Coast had shit on lock. He brought the rap game back to NYC & reinvigorated a new generation of East Coast rappers to go harder then ever before.

In honor of the anniversary of his death, I would like to share the two awesome tribute songs made by his Bad Boy family. First we have P Diddy ft Faith & 112 with 'I'll Be Missing You' & then we got The Lox with 'We'll Always Love Big Poppa'. A fitting tribute for the BK don.

To quote Jadakiss: "I guess you wit the real King of New York now!!!". R.I.P. forever & thanks for the memories. We'll always love ya Big! 

"... Cause The Greatest Rapper Of All Time Died on March 9th"

On a very sad evening in L.A. 13 years ago, the world was robbed of one of the greatest rappers of all time. Biggie was much more then a rapper... he was NYC, he was the one that was going to bring hip hop home to where it started. Can't believe that it has been sooooo long since we lost the black Frank White. Anyhow, to celebrate his life and the excellent music that he blessed us with, here are my favorite B.I.G. videos... hope you enjoy.
