March 9th marks another anniversary of the death of the Notorious B.I.G. As time slips past he is gone but the memory still lives on as numerous mixtapes are still being released. Creating such a strong presence from the first time he ever graced a stage most artist can't even seem to create a song without mentioning his name or even putting themselves in the same catergory as one of the greatest emcee's of the past, present, and future. From Juicy, One Chance, Ten Crack Commandments, and many more the crowd still seems to show the same amount of love when ever his music is heard.
Diddy commemorated the death of B.I.G. by giving his first performance in Brooklyn. Diddy and Dirty Money performed at The Lab Banquet Hall with B.I.G.'s #1 DJ Mister Cee on the "Wheels of Steel." CEO of Bad Boy spoke with MTV to expalin how important a day like this was. "I'm going to Brooklyn. It's gonna be the first time I'm throwing a party in Brooklyn. I'm from Harlem. Everybody in Harlem knows you don't usually go over the bridge to Brooklyn. It's a big, big deal. Me being such a Harlemite, I'm going over there to pay respect to my man. It's gonna be a big party in Brooklyn with Mister Cee. It's a big day. It's a day to celebrate his life. It's a day to celebrate the life of the man. We done did the movie, the records. It's something that, I guess, as a label we're obsessed with: making sure people don't forget about this man in a positive way. March 9 is Biggie Day. ...Bump Biggie all day, feel good and positive."
