Lil Cease Returns To Biggie's Block 20 Years After 'Ready to Die'
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 вер 2014
- This Saturday (Sept. 13) marks the 20th anniversary of one of hip-hop's most groundbreaking albums, The Notorious B.I.G.'s Ready to Die. And around these parts, we tend to get nostalgic when these kinds of milestone anniversaries approach.
For Illmatic's 20th bornday in April, we asked Nas' brother Jungle to give us a tour of the Queensbridge streets (and childhood apt.) that inspired the classic LP. And now, we've recruited Biggie's baby brother from another, Lil' Cease, to walk us through the now-gentrified Clinton Hill area of Brooklyn, where Christopher Wallace grew up into one of hip-hop's biggest legends.
Take a trip down memory lane with Cease A Leo as he revisits Big's old stoop, remembers supplying Tupac with guns hidden in shoeboxes, and recalls his first encounter with the Notorious One. -John Kennedy

The people who live in that area now would have never even thought of passing through here 20 years ago
True that
That's facts
good... no one wants shitty neighborhoods filled with crime
Facts.. 💯
It's called gentrification it's happening in ever city 😐
U can tell why Cease lived thru the yrs and made it alive. Very wise, kind and loving individual. when he recollected a Pac moment "whenever Pac came around here I used to pick him up, make sure he was safe in brooklyn" that was pure love. Cease made sure he worked on his body too make sure if anybody thot he was lil he was tough too😬🤝😆
They're both still alive and well that whole beef was staged
3:20 Biggie has one eye on the streets and one eye on his girl
LOL
Τhats what i call everything under control!!
😂
Cmon man 😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Big, would be proud of Lil Cease, being the hip-hop ambassador he is now.
I respect Lil Ceaser he is a True freind to BIG
He snitched on lil kim she really took care of him
Jamie Park Stfu
Look at raw deal big gene talking facts
True friend to lil kims pussy
@@moneejimmerson536 you werent involved in the situation so u cant jux label this man a "snitch" just to look cool like yourself tmz'ing with no proof
1 thing about biggie unlike most rapper he never forgot his roots and loved where he came from for him walking down the road or block as they say in the USA the reason he walked down the block was he was a inspiration to people he was an ambassador of nyc and him talking with people having time he was trying to inspire normal everyday people like us you can achieve anything if you work hard he gave people hopes and dreams legend humble one of the greatest if only he was still here today R.I.P MR Biggy you elevated the game to what it has become your legacy will never die always be remembered as a legend like Elvis arteta Franklin Michael Jackson list goes on but I’m sure everyone agrees with me some people will always live on after death
Lil Cease has always stayed true to BIG as far as i can tell. True friend.
Bob Digi Stfu Dumb Bitch.
Shenyae T can’t say that with no fucking argument
True
Bob Digi there blood relatives smh lol
They should had bought all those buildings in Brooklyn back then. They would had been filthy Rich.
Appearantly Long Beach Records is a donut shop now...……………...
It’s called the Gentrification of black people
@@whatsgoingon07 ☑️
Jay jay cruz every New Yorker says that now lol
what is the forcing out of poor white people by immigrants called?
That's So Nice Of Lil Cease!! To Show Us Where It All Started.
Rip Biggie 📿 Respect To Cease For Keeping It Real!😎

Thanx Lil Cease I just visited biggies hood yesterday
Voice search
just noticed his shirt biggies face with medusa hair
He did put bigs face lol I know somebody who has that shirt but it's the regular Versace shirt tho not bigs face
lina Gustavo it is biggies face lol
He introduced Versace to the hood.
Eric Bravo nah he copied tupac
@@davewest4020 That's what tupac claimed. The older I get I realize this world is full of outright liars.
Tupac lied about alot of things including blaming big and puff for his shooting. In the end, like tekashi now his bs and lies caught up to him.
HE STILL LOOK THE SAME. 20 YEARS LATER....AND HE STILL LOOK THE SAME
I think so too ....and I think so too.
Mistah Kleen hes still a snitch to
Black dont crack
Mistah Kleen he is still a young man, in his fourties acting like a teenager and probably single faada
Brooklyn aint the hood no more. Joint crasy expensive now
R.I.P Biggie Smalls
Jokes on y'all he's still alive and well there's not a single celebrity that's actually dead they all she there deaths Hollywood is just a big real life movie script pacs new identity is akil the mc from Jurassic 5 and biggie smalls is soup from Jurassic 5
@@prestongower7800 Schizo
Said LEMME get a DOLLA for a piece of candy at school. 😁
Christopher came by our fire house on Monroe ST on several occasions .
Very polite boy! Glad to have known him! Great young man!
You a liar cuz
metropolis how u know he said it
@Tony Hawk he was a drug big deal. Selling weed and maybe coke while the pharmacies are selling prescription drugs which alot of them have much worst side affects then street drugs. And while the politicians and other officials Cops etc... are responsible for alot of the same street drugs he and others sold. The average black person don't work for customs. Some drugs are smuggled from other states and some guns and drugs are put on the streets by politicians cops etc... its big business
damn where did time go
melmayback fo' real where did it go?! Great memories tho!!
Indeed
2020 now bruh
They gentrified brooklyn heavy it really ain't the same 20 years ago
Alan-Michael Dougherty hell yea
Facts bro
Not at all
Sad.
white people took over!!!
Biggie and pac are real legends in the era of hip hop yooo
And little did y'all know they both faked there deaths and are still close friends till this day
Biggie smalls is the illest
It's unbelievable
David Fonseca Dumb ass bitch. Tupac taught his fat ass everything he actually knew. Big is fake.
Nigga you crazy big was some dumb ass nigga but pac spit deep
Biggie would smoke out pac in freestyle. Biggie rap skill is superior to pac
@@MKHLX facts
Can't wait to visit NY.
Me eaither
Just stay away from BX. If you don't have Family in The Bronx just stay clear. I'm from Benson Hurst And we don't venture in BX for fun. Be safe
@@DAVIDTORRESANI what do you mean bro?
Thanks for this! wish it was longer though! Such a shame BIG didn't get to enjoy life! I hope him and Pac are together good now!
Wait...Cease was born in 77, and Biggie was born in 72. So if Cease met Biggie at 6 or 7, Biggie had to have been like 11 or 12 then. Thats hardcore
Yeah cause people saying lil cease was 17 when Biggie died but he was 19 going on 20
Durags are at halfstaff in New York today in honor of biggie
Made of Legos W
😢
I was there the last week... I love that old places where BIG was there. Now looks different but the people and fans keep alive the music legacy of Biggie.
BIG forever. ⭐💐
BIG's is the greatest.
@Juan Pérez you responded to a 4 year old comment your as lame as your response
Tupac is the greatest, but Big tight though
Vaurice Lee no hes not.

@@MrVee24 better than everyone on that list, I consider him and Rakim to be equals

I thought Cease and BIG were related?
I sure wish C could have ran with torch because there is no body reppin' B.I.G's legacy.
Sure there is Kim but she turned herself into a freak show.
Great trip down memory lane Cease.
They are cousins
@@AleksanteriR Biggie And Cease, Are Not Related At All. They Were Good Friends.
🔥🔥🔥
Nice story !! R.I.P Biggie !!
Chill AF
New York is amazing.

He still looks so young
Man cease isn’t aging
No he ain't!!
R.i.p bigg big love brother
I thought they were blood cousins lol
me too
same.. Now I am confused
People kill me this snitch shit. What did Lil Kim do for Lil Cease to snitch on her? She went to court for lying to the grand jury. How can you snitch on some one in a case like that? She lied and said she didn't't know d roc and gutta. When they asked Cease if he knew d roc and gutta he said yes. Again explain to me how is that snitching.
Kim said she didn't know them as in Lil Cease, D-Roc, and Gutta, but Cease went and testified against her and said that she does know them which help put her behind bars
Keondra Thomas That did not help put her behind bars. They had video of her Lil cease, d doc, and gutta all together that day. They showed her the video and she still lied and said she didn't know them.
Looks and sounds good, all grown up 💪🇺🇸
YOUNG CEASE

So the first time they met, he mugged Biggie? How charming!
Damn I watched this episode a bunch of times because I love the throwback feeling. But I thought he was wearing a Versace shirt, just now saw the Biggie portrait on his shirt..
