  There's a fine line between paying homage and using Biggie's death for self-promotion and profit - he and Tupac have become the 9/11 stickers of rap - and I refuse to cross that line. See more...

  Jay-Z Defends Using Biggie’s Lyrics, Says He’s Just A Music Historian (Video)

  Not quite sure why Jay-Z felt the need to explain why he's used lyrics from Notorious B.I.G. on occasion. To me Jay-Z quoting Biggie lyrics is more of a sign of respect and acknowledgement than anything. The video of Jay-Z is part of the "Decoded" iPhone app...yea, interestingly enough there's an app for that. See more...See more...

Just a few weeks after we got some rare footage of Biggie nailing his DJ with a water bottle, and right after we were treated to this classic Coogi sweater laden flick, miss info hooked up footage of Chris Wallace's "Big Poppa (So So Def Remix)" on the Jon Stewart show.

  Unless God is personally coordinating the release of new Biggie material it's obviously a coincidence, but it's funny how these things tend to come in waves. Just a week after we got some vintage video of the Notorious one throwing a water bottle at his DJ we get some more classic Biggie video. This time he plays pool for Canada's version of "Rap City".

  With albums titled "Ready To Die" and "Life After Death" who would've known that Notorious B.I.G. actually had quite the sense of humor. This video, which was posted by Fader magazine, shows Biggie pretending to spaz out on DJ Big Kap at a 1995 show in San Francisco. See more...See more...
