Don’t ask why i haven’t gone to sleep yet. Just enjoy this shit.

“All original versions of Biggie songs that didn’t make albums because of uncleared samples and all that shit. Trust me this is not something to pass up. Get it asap. Burn straight to cd, its how Biggie originally wanted it!”

Mister Cee – Best of Biggie + 10th Anniversary Edition (Mixtape)

DJ Mister Cee put together one of the best mixes in tribute to the Notorious one. 10 years after Big’s untimely death, Mister Cee released a 10th Anniversary Edition, fully stacked with original recordings, unreleased material, live performances and much more. The original version of You’re Nobody is crazy! A few thoughts from Mister Cee himself on the tribute tape can be read over at the plantation. So as we begin to close out the day, I figured I’d drop BOTH on ya’ll. Yep, the original tape + the 2cd 10th Anniversary edition. Enjoy!

Nope Mariah isn’t in the song, oh well. Bonus cut off that Ego Trippin, dropping this Tuesday. What are people’s thoughts on the album? I haven’t given it enough spins to give a proper critique yet (the life of a bootlegger haha). And just like the RZA post below, I’ve included a special bonus. Snoop & Diddy’s tribute to BIG at the 2005 VMA’s.

Haffa – The King is Dead (Convo With B.I.G.)

20080306-haffa.jpg

Speaking with the deceased seems to be a trend today huh? Regardless of how cliche this concept sounds, Haffa pulls it off quite well. The NY emcee is part of Scram Jones’ Beast Music (Scram produced this as well). I realize this isn’t BRAND new, but it fits right with the flow we’ll have this weekend. Remember, B.I.G. is Forever bidges!
