25th Anniversary Tribute 2 B.I.G.
Today; March 9, 2022.. Marks the 25th anniversary of the untimely death of the greatest mc to ever pick up a microphone; The Notorious B.I.G. aka Biggie Smalls.
For every New Yorker, March 9th, is a bitter sweet day. Not only is it a day to remember the legacy of the late great Christopher Wallace, but it's a day to think on what the world of hip-hop would be like if BIG was still here.
I was 11 years old the first time I heard Ready To Die. I'll never forget my moms running into my room bugging out when the end of BIG's first verse of Gimme The Loot was playing; "Who's crazier than angel dust & how the hell do you even know what that means?!?!" At the time I didn't all I knew was that whoever this guy was, I fucks with..
2 years later when I started high school & began DJing I remember spending hours playing, Ready To Die | Life After Death, on repeat until I knew every word to every song.
Fast forward 17 years later & nothing has changed. Although my focus is & always will be underground dance music; hip-hop was & will always be my first love. This mini-mix is not only my tribute to the greatest lyricist to ever live but a tribute to my roots of DJing..
I hope you all enjoy..
Always love,
NC
