On Thursday, many around the world celebrated the life of the slain rapper Notorious B.I.G. in their own special way. With street art, merchandise from various vendors and tweeted lyrics allowed Biggie's legacy to reign on what was the 20th anniversary of his death.
Two news anchors from station WSB Channel 2 in Atlanta, GA put a special twist on their tribute to the MC in their televised broadcast. Reporters Mark Arum and Fred Blankenship revamped classic lines from songs like "Hypnotize" and "Juicy" to add some flair to their normal traffic report. It was, in a word, quite "lit".
