In a video shared on Twitter and Instagram in the early hours of the day, Diddy asked fans to record themselves rapping their favorite B.I.G. verses for "something special" that he is working on. "I want you to rap your favorite Biggie verse and post it with the hashtag #WeMissYouBIG," he said. "I'm going to chop it up, edit it up, and everything and we're going to put out something special with all the fans and friends involved in Notorious B.I.G.'s life."
