Saddest day in hip hop history.A true talent was taken away
I woke up sunday morning and my boy who was a die hard pac stan called me up hyped sayin "They got him they got your boy biggie.He dead he got killed last night in l.a." he was mad happy and I aint believe him so I turned on the radio and they were playing big poppa and when the song went off the dj said christopher wallace was gunned down in l.a. early this morning.
I'm not from the east coast and people were sad in my city big was a star and the most talented rapper along with nas from that era
2 weeks later the greatest double album ever dropped people were like

Can't speak for everyone else, but Pac and Biggie both got killed my freshman year of HS, so I was definitely cognizant of what was going on.
it was crazy. i remember for a few months afterwards, people used to debate who would get killed next. personally, i wasnt shocked at biggie's death. for one, i never understood why he was out there in cali like that. especially after the way he got booed at the soul train awards. i wouldve got on the plane after that. and i didnt even know about that infamous interview he did on cali radio until recent years.
whether you believe that pac died over rap chit or gang chit or if youre like me and think that the government was behind it - whichever one you ride with, you just knew somebody relevant on the east was gonna get hit, whether it be for revenge or cover-up purposes.
i was sorry that big died. especially since he had young kids. but i would be lying if i said that i was comfortable watching him ball on tv while pac was gone. outside of general sympathy, i was personally kinda like
despite the fact that im from the east. i didnt have real sympathy til i heard "we'll always love big poppa" which is a tear-jerker to this day.
youre gonna get mr smoke weeded.
theres 10 year olds in the hood that are more cognizant than alot of 25 year olds on this site.

no doubt. I'm not saying everyone or even that they don't remember. The only thing I don't like is when people who were like ten talk about the climate and saying so and so wasn't getting play like that or whatever.
I have nothing problems with age, it just drives me nuts when they try to talk about the climate as a whole. The only reason I say that is because it usually leaves me with the
i just came home after the 6 month parole violation.i was watching BET when they broke the news.me being a pac stan back then i heard about it i smiled like a glad demon cause i always thought he had something to do with pac murder.i was already heated at that "Long Kiss" diss he made after pac died like a fat ass coward bytch.so it was really a "oh well,what comes around goes around" moment for me.it took me years to finally really sit down and listen to both biggies albums but when i did i was 
on how dope he was!

I remember being at tire kingdom on a sunday morning getting my jetta fixed and casey kasem came on the radio and announced it. the radio was on in the bay for the workers to listen to. I didnt know till that morning and I was in straight shock. I thought I didnt hear him properly. It was a gloomy sunday and the weather was fitting to the news. Everyone was saddened. The clubs were amazing when bad boy songs came on normally and were on another level after the death.

I remember when was Pac died to this day.
I was on the three king drive bus by Michael Reese hospital where I was born.
I was around the hospital cause my play sister almost died from a appendicitis rupture and surgery.
She pulled out okay but almost passed, too.
Somebody yelled no not pac, out a car and I turned on my Walkman to the radio by digital preset.
I actually cried about Pac getting killed.
As real talk,....i just kinda knew he was gonna pull through like he always did.
Duke was like that nikka that made you hate his antics and actions.
Yet, when he had an interview he would endear you to him after all his ignorance, defiance and actions.
With incredible commentary and well spoken intelligence when he was focused.
Hearing he did not hold on.
it took me back to a time when I was a real fan before he acted a damn fool.
To make me fall out of favor with his whole shyt.
Plus his whole cadre of overprocessed fans.
I remember big's death was one I had been prepared for.
I actually thought mobb deep's prodigy would get killed for some odd reason, back then.
So when it happened I was more in shock and a little stronger not to shed a tear, on the very day of his death.
To be honest I did not cry about big till, the end of that awful bio movie.
When it goes off and they show the funeral.
Just how crazy the celebration was and back then you did not get the whole scene on the net via stream of the footage at the time.
When I got to see the whole celebration on the movie.
That fukked me up, big time.
I sat with the blunt mad fukked up.
I was with my little goon squad of my lil man's & em, too.
They was looking at their leader like damn...
Plus, all during the pre-release bootleg viewing.
I was vocal about big's portrayal and how he hooked up with faith as phoney.
It is weird, too.
As I was never a big advocate of both of them as a fan or artist.
I had their twelve's in certain spots.
Like I had juicy for unbelievable b side the first day.
I have the first two Pac's on tape.
Plus poetic justice on tape for the real violent.
Plus flex on tape, too.
I still remember being conflicted about the MCA style record making for juicy at the time.
I used to be big on them as unknowns before they blew and were overprocessed.
It still fukked me up in some way or another, though.
Big l's death hurt me more, though.
As that was my favorite rapper from the early nineties era.
Plus in 92 till illmatic he was the best.
So when he died I sat in my cubicle really fukked up over that shyt.
I even sent money to the big l foundation.

^yea but the general public didnt know about big's death til sunday morning. so technically, monday would be the next day.
but you reminded me of that monday. we're walking into school that morning....me sneaking in the line at the last second as usual. one of the homies, stops when he sees me like:
: biggie died!!!
i looked at him like
dude is a biggie stan too. i think he had all his biggie cassette singles in his bookbag.

I remeber last seeing Big on the Soul Train Award, as a wave of BOOs fell on him, and he just smiled and said something to the likes of 'whuddup Cal.' Then, I woke up Sunday hearing the Notorious BIG gunned down leaving an industry event. I remeber not fully believing it until MTV did a special report on Fulton Street, and then it just hit me like , Big's dead.
We were so confused and
the next day at junior high. I attended I.S.320, right across from Ebbets Field projects.
