The murder of The Notorious B.I.G., also known as Biggie Smalls and born Christopher Wallace, remains officially unsolved. He was shot and killed in a drive-by shooting on March 9, 1997, in Los Angeles, California. There have been various theories and speculations about who might be responsible for his murder, but no one has been charged or convicted in connection with the case.
There were tensions between the East Coast and West Coast hip-hop scenes during the 1990s, and this was exemplified by the feud between Biggie Smalls from the East Coast and Tupac Shakur from the West Coast. Tupac was killed in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas on September 13, 1996, in a case that also remains officially unsolved.
Speculations and conspiracy theories have suggested connections between the murders of Biggie and Tupac, involving rivalries within the hip-hop industry and allegations of involvement by influential figures. Some theories have suggested connections to the Death Row Records CEO, Suge Knight, who was associated with Tupac Shakur. However, no concrete evidence has been presented to support these claims, and the cases remain unsolved.
Both murders have been the subject of ongoing investigations and have fueled numerous documentaries, books, and discussions within the hip-hop community and beyond. The lack of resolution has left many questions unanswered, and the circumstances surrounding these deaths continue to be sources of speculation and intrigue.
