"NO-NO-NO-NOTORIOUS!" THE RELEASE OF THE EPIC FILM, "NOTORIOUS", SHOULD MOST DEFINITELY BE CLASSIFIED AS A HISTORIC EVENT. FROM THE BEGINNING TO THE END, THE PRODUCTION KEEPS YOU LAUGHING, CRYING AND BOPPING YOUR HEAD. IT TAKES YOU BACK TO THE TIME WHERE MUSIC WAS AS REAL AS THE STORIES IT TOLD AND YOU ACTUALLY HAD A TOUGH DECISION TO MAKE ON WHO YOUR FAVORITE RAPPER SHOULD BE.
WE, AT GOODGIRLPR, HAD A CHANCE TO BE A PART OF THE HOOPLA LAST THURSDAY AT THE BROOKLYN PREMIERE OF THE FILM. WE WERE ASKED TO GATHER ITEMS FOR GIFT BAGS TO PRESENT TO THE CAST MEMBERS. WE DID JUST THAT AND THEN SOME. SEVERAL COMPANIES GAVE WILLINGLY FOR THE CAUSE. THE MOST GENUINE PIECES CAME FROM TWO BIGGIE INSPIRED INDIVIDUALS. DJ SHOGUN AND PETER MARCO OF MARCO ART BROUGHT THEIR OWN TALENT OUT TO REPRESENT FOR THE GREATEST RAPPER WHO EVER DID IT. "B.I.G. - A TASTE OF BROOKLYN" IS THE TITLE OF THE PHENOMENAL MIXTAPE DJ SHOGUN AND DJ DRIIS OF HEADSHELL LTD. PUT TOGETHER. NEW SCHOOL BEATS BLEND AND COMPLIMENT CHRISTOPHER WALLACE'S COMMANDING VOICE AND LYRICS. SHOGUN'S TAKE ON IT WAS THAT HE WANTED TO BE A BIT MORE CREATIVE WITH IT INSTEAD OF DOING THE TYPICAL TWENTY TWO TRACKS OF BIGGIE'S HITS.
MARCO ART TRAVELED THAT EXTRA MILE AS WELL WITH HIS 70"X90" PORTRAIT PAINTING OF BIGGIE SMALLS. WITHIN A DAY, THE ARTIST CREATED THE BRILLIANT PIECE WITH ACRYLIC ON CANVAS. IT DISPLAYED IN THE GREEN ROOM FOR ALL TO ADMIRE AS CAST MEMBERS SIGNED IT. IN ADDITION, HE MADE A PICTURE FOR GOODGIRLPR!
THE GREEN ROOM FILLED UP QUICKLY WITH NEWS REPORTERS, ACTORS, PUBLICISTS, MUSIC ICONS AND POLITICAL FIGURES. THIS INCLUDED: GEORGE TILLMAN, JR. (DIRECTOR), JAMAL WOOLARD (BIGGIE), DEREK LUKE (PUFFY), ANTONIQUE SMITH (FAITH EVANS), ANTHONY MACKIE (TUPAC), CJ WALLACE, DENNIS WHITE (D-ROC), FAITH EVANS, LIL' CEASE, VOLETTA WALLACE, MR. CEE, MARTY MARKOWITZ (BROOKLYN BOROUGH PRES.), LATISHA JAMES (BROOKLYN COUNCIL MEMBER), AND REV. JESSE JACKSON.
THE OCCASION ENDED WITH Q & A FOR THE CAST AFTER THE EXTRAORDINARY MOVIE WAS SHOWN. IT WAS A FANTASTIC EVENING FOR A FANTASTIC REASON IN BROOKLYN.
