A Biggie mural has been defaced in Brooklyn. The Notorious B.I.G. artwork was vandalized on Thursday night (August 25) with red paint splattered across the Brooklyn icon’s face and the words “East Coast” spraypainted underneath.
The black-and-white portrait of the legendary rapper is stationed on the corner of Saint James Place and Fulton Street in Clinton Hill next to a Beauty World salon, where Biggie once called home. There is no word on a possible motive or suspects as of press time.
“This is his stomping ground and everything,” Brooklyn resident Johnny Famous told News 12. “Biggie means a lot to the whole world. So for someone to do this, it’s ridiculous. You gotta be sick in the head and I know it’s a million cameras out here so somebody saw something.”
With cameras lining the neighborhood, the hope is that at least one caught the vandalism and can help lead police to possible suspects.
“Too many cameras out there for no one to know,” rapper Cortez Bodega wrote.
Biggie has been in the news in recent weeks as Young Guru unearthed some audio of B.I.G. schooling his crew on some tips regarding how to maneuver in the rap game in the ’90s.
“Drama crazy drama, and he just called my crib last night and was like, ‘Yo man you think the game make a n-gga soft?’” Biggie can be heard saying. “I was like no doubt. No doubt. The game make a n-gga soft man. The game make a ni-gga soft man.
“They could play you and you can’t even punch n-ggas in the face like you could. Back in the days when a n-gga disrespected you’d just straight beat the n-gga down and that’d just be that.”
The perpetrator is a black man. I bet the small hat owned media will make it seem like this was done by some maga hat wearing “wyte supremaciss”. Kinda like when the small hat media made it look like white people were beating up asian people, when it was “rayciss” black men who was doing it.
THERE ARE SOME SELF HATING RACIST BLACK FOLKS OUT THERE.
Naw, it’s just a lame white dude on here obsessed with saying that shit cuz he’s pissed cuz he used to get his ass beat by all the black kids on his block in his hood. Just ignore him.

Probably stating that someone from the east coast did him in
street art always vunerable to attack. I mean east coast wtf b.i.g. was the east coast he is a legend of the east coast.

Yo I don’t know who the hell did this s*** to biggie’s mural, this s*** is not cool at all. his daughter his son and his granddaughter got to look at that mural. Didn’t anyone ever consider Miss Voletta Wallace feelings. That was her only child and for somebody to go out in the world and disrespect this man’s Legacy like this you must be sick in the head I don’t know what your problem is with biggie but you need to keep it to yourself
There’s nothing East Coast about this.
people underlying tension all this time since they both got shot and killed it can mean a lot to the fans. Like right here on this site a 2pac or b.i.g. Story it can mean a lot i guess. West vs. East same shit brothers getting shot and killed thats how it goes in 2022.
Beat that ass yo!
