RAPPER Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs has reminisced about Notorious B.I.G – 14 years after his death.“It’s a constant thing. When it’s something like that that happens and somebody who is like music you listen to and is just a part of your motivation…It’s something that you relive, but to be honest March 9 for us is a day of celebration it ain’t really like a day of mourning,” Diddy said of the iconic rapper’s death.
“It goes off in New York City. Like tomorrow everywhere, all the stations especially here. It’s gonna be going hard in the paint on Biggie and then at night it goes down. Even throughout the weekend so it’s really great when you wake up on March 9 and you just hear all his records and how up to date they sound.”
Notorious B.I.G. — born Christopher Wallace and also known as Biggie Smalls – was shot and killed in Los Angeles on March 9, 1997, and his second solo album, Life after Death, was released on March 26. It has sold more than 10 million copies.
MTV called Biggie the third greatest MC of all time, behind Tupac and Jay-Z. Biggie was nominated for a Grammy for Best Solo Rap Performance for Big Poppa in 1996 and in 1998 for Hypnotize.
