During Biggie’s ceremony, Lil’ Kim spoke — as well as his mother. Also, New York City Council member Laurie Cumbo, rapper Lil Cease, and other friends, and fans attended the ceremony. It was a proud moment for Biggie‘s family and friends.

Pitchfork mentions as follows:

“The renaming petition was approved by the Brooklyn Community Board and Mayor Bill De Blasio last November. Christopher ‘Notorious B.I.G.’ Wallace Way arrives after years of efforts to rename the street; due to the violent nature of his music, the memoriam met resistance from the city.”

Biggie, who created the mega-hits ‘It Was All a Dream,’ ‘Mo Money Mo Problems’, and ‘Hypnotize’ with its catchy riff ‘sicker than your average’, was only 24 when he was killed while stopped at a red light in Los Angeles,” the source continues. “He was it four times in a drive-by shooting. His murder remains unsolved.
