Like 2Pac, Biggie Smalls became a bigger star after his death. He only released one solo album during his life and was murdered when he was celebrating finishing his second, "Life after death", which was released shortly after his death.

His first album, which arguably made him the "king of New York", included 2 big hits, some have argued that his “Blow up like the World Trade” from his first solo hit was a prediction of 9/11.

While Puff Daddy released "I'll be missing you", the following was unfortunately never released as a single.

Coolio (aged 59) could have been COVID vaxxed, reportedly dying of a "heart attack": https://www.deseret.com/2022/9/28/23377 ... did-he-die


This was his biggest hit, "I guess they front, that's why I know my life is out of luck, fool"...

LL Cool J ft. Keith Murray, Prodigy, Fat Joe, Foxy Brown – I shot ya remix (1995)


Memorable for the verse of the late Prodigy of the infamous Mobb Deep, with its illuminati reference.

I conversate with many men, it’s time to begin again
Forgot what I already knew, ayo, you hear me friend?
Illuminati want my mind, soul and my body
Secret society, trying to keep they eye on me
But I’ma stay incogni’, in places they can’t find me
Make my moves strategically, the G.O.D
It’s sorta similar but iller than a chess player
