Biggie may no longer be with us, but it’s still Bad Boys for life.
In commemoration of the epochal hip-hop artist, who would have celebrated his 44th birthday on May 21, Sean "Diddy" Combs has announced the "One Night Only" Bad Boy Family Reunion on May 20 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y.
Combs will head up the star-studded tribute, which will include performances from Jay Z, Mary J. Blige, Lil’ Kim, Mase, French Montana, Total, Mario Winans, hip-hop trio, The Lox, R&B quartet, 112, and Faith Evans, who was married to Biggie. The Live Nation production will run the gamut of Bad Boy Entertainment’s body of work, spanning material from the last two decades.
"This isn't just another concert. This is hip-hop history," Combs said in a release. "The Bad Boy Family includes some of the biggest names in music and songs that helped define a whole generation of music. Also, we are celebrating one of the greatest of all time: Notorious B.I.G. This will be a night to remember."
Tickets go on sale Saturday at 11 a.m. ET on livenation.com.
