Of all the people who had close ties to him, the only person who perhaps had as close a tie to The Notorious B.I.G as Faith Evans was Puff Daddy. One of his confidantes, and the reason Biggie is regarded as one of the greatest rappers ever, Puff took to his social media accounts to leave a heartfelt message for his fallen friend.
“For us, we lived 20 years of our lives without somebody that has been a big part of our lives,” Sean said, “that has basically been responsible for the legend of our careers.”
“Twenty years later, time heals all wounds, but this wound ain’t healed yet,” he continues.
Puff also left another video tribute, recalling the first time he ever met Christopher Wallace.
Diddy is also asking for fans to record themselves reciting some of their favorite Biggie verses for a unique project. “I’m going to chop it up, edit it up and everything,” Puff explained, “and we’re going to put out something special with all the fans and friends and family involved in celebrating Notorious B.I.G’s life.”
Fabolous and Belly have already contributed, both reciting “Juicy.”
