Hip Hop Wednesday 6-22-05

Here are some minor notes:

  • March 9, 1997 Christopher Wallace (aka The Notorious B.I.G.) was killed shortly after midnight, on a Los Angeles boulevard after someone in a dark sedan fired seven shots into his sport utility vehicle while both cars were stopped at a light. Wallace was heading to a hotel following the Vibe Magazine awards show after-party.

    Eight years? Eight freakin years? Finally the family gets their day in court. The civil suit alleges that Death Row Records CEO Marion “Suge” Knight ordered the 1997 murder of Wallace and that former various LAPD officers helped cover up the murder and stifle an investigation.
  • The Game has 300 Bars for 50 Cent. Download here. 15 minutes of pure hate.
  • Rize a new documentary by David LaChapelle is set for release this Friday 6-24-05.
