"I can’t believe that of all those people that were there and nobody saw nothing and nobody has the information of who took our guy.” Enuff said.īiggie's fellow Brooklyn rapper Maino is also still hurt by the loss. "Prior to that, there were death threats, there were phone calls to the hotels or to the people with the phones, 'We are going to get you,' this and that," he said.īiggie's death is still an unsolved murder, and that bothers Enuff. Unfortunately, his intuition was correct. "I just felt in my heart that this wasn’t the time to be in LA. Why are we going to LA to party?'" Enuff said.
In my mind, I was thinking, 'Tupac just passed six months prior or something like that. "I was here in New York, I was afraid to go to LA. DJ Enuff was nervous and told those closest to Biggie to keep him safe during the trip to the West Coast. This was during the time of East Coast/West Coast rap feuds that often turned violent. Only 24 years old, the rapper who quickly rose to the top was gunned down and murdered in Los Angeles on March 9, 1997. He still feels the pain of losing Biggie 25 years ago. My name will forever be in the books because of my affiliation with the Notorious B.I.G., and that’s amazing to me," Enuff said. You’re crazy.'”Ī short time later, Sean "Puffy" Combs, who was on his way to becoming a music mogul, asked DJ Enuff to be Biggie's road and concert DJ. 'What are you doing? You’re leaking my B.I.G. Then the warmline hits, the hotline, and it’s Puff Daddy and he’s yelling and screaming at me. “So I go on KISS FM and I start playing this music, I started cleaning and editing the records on my own. Play it, do what you got to do with it,'” Enuff recalled. He gives me his album on cassette as a gift. “After that, he thanked me and he loved me and he said, 'You are my guy'. He helped the then-up-and-coming rapper get into a Manhattan nightclub the Brooklyn native could not get into on his own. In the '90s, Enuff was already a radio DJ.
