In celebration of his life and legacy, and in conjunction with the new documentary Biggie: I Got A Story To Tell, Netflix teams up with The Originals for an Instagram Live party, broadcasting tonight on @TheNotoriousBIG at 8pm ET.
Broadcasting live from DJ Clark Kent’s studio, the event features DJ sets from The Originals, four legendary DJs–Clark Kent, Stretch Armstrong, Tony Touch, and Rich Medina–all of whom have deep roots in the NY rap scene and unique perspectives on Biggie’s career.
The DJ sets will have a three-act structure, examining the past (Biggie’s influences), present (music from B.I.G. himself), and future of the legendary rapper’s legacy (music directly inspired by Biggie). Featuring insightful conversation and great music, the Instagram Live event airs on @TheNotoriousBIG, the estate’s official Instagram account. Use #IGotAStoryToTell to join the conversation.
Synopsis: In the wake of the Notorious B.I.G.’s landmark induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and ahead of what would have been his 50th birthday, Biggie: I Got A Story To Telloffers a fresh look at one of the greatest, most influential rappers of all time by those who knew him best. Made in collaboration with Biggie’s estate, I Got A Story To Tell is an intimate rendering of a man whose rapid ascent and tragic end has been at the center of rap lore for more than twenty years. Directed by Emmett Malloy, this intimate documentary features rare footage filmed by his best friend Damion “D-Roc” Butler and new interviews with his closest friends and family, revealing a side of Christopher Wallace that the world never knew. I Got A Story To Tell is executive produced by Sean Combs, Voletta Wallace, Mark Pitts, Stanley Buchthal, and Emmett and Brendan Malloy.
