Biggie, Biggie, Biggie....

It was all a dream… Or was it???

Can’t believe today…13 years ago to the day, Christopher Wallace aka Biggie Smalls aka Frank White aka The Notorious B.I.G was shot at in a drive by shooting, as he sat in a truck waiting at a red light after leaving a party.

Biggie, who was in the passenger seat was rushed to hospital but was pronounced dead in the early hours of the morning.

Dead??? Could it really be???

Questions and speculations spiralled out of control…most pointing to the East coat – West coast feud as the sole reason behind the slaying.

Whatever the story was, the harsh reality was clear…Biggie was dead!

Raised in Brooklyn during the 80’s when Crack was gripping the community, Biggie managed to rise up through his drug dealing and become one of the most successful rappers ever!

His debut album Ready to Die, dropped in 1994 and it was simply onwards and upwards from there.

After appearing on tracks such Mary J Blige’s, Real Love and working closely with Puff Daddy (as he was at the time), Biggie was Bad Boy!

So what went wrong?

Why did it end the way it did?

So many unanswered questions even up to today…

One thing is for sure, Biggie’s legacy still lives on through his music and in his words.. you’re nobody, til somebody kills you!!!

So let’s remember Biggie for the HUGE talent he was…
