The Notorious B.I.G. Is Alive?

And he's on Twitter?

Guess what? I had the pleasure of interviewing him for the esteemed internet publication, >bounce/oz.
I'll reprint the intro for you:

Almost 14 years ago, Sean “Puffy” Combs released a single from his latest protegé, a chubby rapper with a wicked wit who sounded like he was talking into a jar. Four days earlier, the MC with the ever-present Kangol and the sad eyes married his girlfriend of two weeks, and was still itching to sell crack, a routine he’d taken up in order to support his two year old daughter.

After August 8th, 1994, the rap game was never the same. “Juicy,” The Notorious B.I.G.’s lazy tale of makin’ it over a smooth Mtume sample, went on to sell 500,000 copies by November and started an entire hip hop movement, the remnants of which can still be seen today.

Biggie went on rule both charts and radio waves, and started all kinds of drama along the way, beginning with his flagrant affairs, continuing with his West coast rivalries, and ending with his 1997 murder in Las Vegas, just a little over three years after it all began.

But earlier this year, Biggie’s been spotted online, commenting on blogs here and there, and gaining over 225 followers on his Twitter account. Is he alive? That’s not for us to ask; the question is too weighty. But what is for us to ask is this: what the hell has he been doing in the last 11 years?

Investigative reporter Aaron Matthews is on the case.
