Extremely rare Notorious B.I.G. signed "Hypnotize” Promotional CD.
“Hypnotize” was released on March 1, 1997 by B.I.G., the last hit single B.I.G. released. This promotional CD is one of the last known autographs signed by B.I.G.
4 days before he was murdered on March 9, 1997 in Los Angeles, California, B.I.G. signed this CD on March 5, 1997 in San Francisco, California at the (formerly known as KYLD WILD 107.7 FM) (now currently known as KYLD WILD 94.9 FM) radio station while promoting his soon to be legendary album "Life After Death". This would-be Biggie Smalls last radio interview before being killed. While on air B.I.G. was answering questions about the beef with 2Pac and the whole East Coast/West Coast beef. There is also video proof footage of B.I.G. signing this "Hypnotize" promo CD during the interview https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfpRizeu-Eo&t=2121s (35:00).
This is one of the few CDs that he signed. This is truly a rare piece of Hip-Hop history that can be considered an artifact in the Hip-Hop culture and probably the most famous track by Notorious B.I.G. of all time. "Hypnotize” was also played when they brought B.I.G.’s body through the streets of Brooklyn in a hearse on the day of B.I.G.’s funeral. “Life After Death” is considered to be his best work ever and he is also considered to be one greatest and most influential rappers of all time. There are virtually no CDs signed by B.I.G on the market so this could be your only opportunity to get one.
