In a few days, it will be seventeen years since The Notorious B.I.G. was murdered in Los Angeles following the 1997 Soul Train Awards. As the years pass by, it still doesn’t feel like it has been so long. Hip hop will never fully get over the loss of a star who had yet to fully realize his potential.
But, several artists have come along paying homage to The Notorious B.I.G. and this includes Chox-Mak. In 2013, Chox-Mak did a freestyle over “Flava In Ya Ear,” although a Craig Mack track, it featured B.I.G. But, his biggest tribute to B.I.G. was probably his Life After Def EP.
Chox-Mak’s efforts and that of his partner, DJ YRS Jerzy, have not gone unnoticed, as they were added to the bill for a tribute show to The Notorious B.I.G. B. L. A. K. Label is putting on a show in NYC at The Delancey and featuring performances from Chox-Mak, Spits Nelson, Quig, The Village, and Bobby Capri.
