Nothing's impossible, but how would Biggie and Puff have even heard that dude back then. The early 90s was like now. A song could be all over the airwaves in one city and be unheard in a neighboring state let alone another whole region.
I like many ppl bought the white Biggie Smalls single thinking it was BIGExactly he was going by biggie smalls when he got out of jail but had to change it because there was a white rapper who was gonna sue him for using the same name so he changed to notorious big
well
it's not like Big & Puff stayed in NYC
I mean they did travel
