Biggie Smalls Death: How did Biggie Small die? Where did Biggie Small die?

Biggie Small, an American rapper and songwriter, was only 24 years old when he died – he was killed two months before his 25th birthday.

Biggie was killed on March 9, 1997, after he was shot four times in a drive-by shooting in Los Angeles – according to a number of reports, only the final shot he endured was fatal.

His death came just six months after the killing of fellow rapper and former friend, Tupac who was also shot in a drive-by shooting, before dying of internal bleeding six days later.

Many theories claim the cause of Biggie’s death was tied to Tupac’s, as their long-term feud was a huge talking point in the media around that time.

This was due to the similarities in the drive-by shootings and the highly publicized East Coast-West Coast hip hop feud, of which Biggie and Tupac had been central figures. Although there was no evidence to implicate him, reports had previously speculated that Wallace was connected to Tupac’s murder.
