NOTORIOUS BIG: Playground Dedication

TeeRoy's 2 Cents:

  • Hopefully this monument isn't disrespected like the Prodigy mural, which was defaced twice in 48 hours. 
  • Twenty years later and Biggie's legend continues to live on, stronger than ever.
  • There is also a mural honoring Biggie in Bed-Stuy.



A basketball court in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn is being dedicated to The Notorious B.I.G.

City Councilman Robert Cornegy, who once lived next door to the rapper, says “this honor is very personal" to him. He worked for years trying to get a public space named after the local legend. Years ago, he hoped to get St. James Place in the Clinton Hill neighborhood renamed for Biggie. Now, a basketball court in the Crispus Attucks Playground will be named in the rapper’s honor. 

Cornegy tweeted after the news was announced, saying he’s “[h]appy to finally be getting this done for Ms. Wallace.”

The renaming ceremony will take place early next month. (New York Daily News)
