Diddy should buy the building. make it a hip hop museum and make a profit while doing a good thing

😂😂😂 my nigga said I'm a New York times best seller

tbh if he's not a hiphop fan hes not gonna care. the same way how i wouldn't care if it was a mural of a country singer and that was my building

THATS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU LIVE IN A TOWN FOR DECADES AND DONT BUY....IF YOU DONT OWN SHIT....DON'T SAY SHIT...

That mural looks sick as hell how can you tear it down to add Windows lol he just money hungry

they must be salty about the confederate statutes being removed

HE LIEEEEEEEED, AND BIGS MURAL GOT TAKEN DOWN. CUZ HE FUCKINNN LIEDD. -Funkmaster Flex

Oh that landlord playin' with his life by making that decision

Brooklyn not Brooklyn no more😒

Rest In Peace biggie..but can we have a Nat Turner mural? Marcus Garvey, Malcom X..(you get the point)

The community should push for it to be a landmark.

surprise diddy didnt just buy the building

If rapper can put up 30k in the club for one night can't they all come together and just buy the fucking building. Jay.....Diddy........I hear crickets.....

first wack 100 disrespects 2pac now this what's wrong with people disrespecting our legends

Charlamagne deserves Donkey of the day for not being able to pronounce "Mural" correctly.

Tell Hov or Diddy to buy the building so they can keep it

At the end of the day... it's his property and asking for money to keep it up is fair. Put yourself in his shoes and stop thinking in the terms of white or black.

The gentrfication is real in NYC yo smh

I'm like wen are they gonna correct him on "mural" 😂😂😂

I wish I could harmonize like the Hamiltones

I'm not black or from New York City, don't listen to or follow rap/hip-hop, and I still know the significance of Biggie in Brooklyn, especially that mural.

where all the NEW YORK RAPPERS AT????? But they love B.I.G. SO MUCH..........i can't tell........cause if they did they would have BEEN HANDLED IT.......

The 2pac Movie Got Everybody Goin Crazy

Thumbnail almost gave me a heart attack.

LMAO @ "I'm a New York TImes best selling author drop one of clues bombs for me damn it." LMAO perfect timing. My sides hurt LMAO!!!!!!!!!

Bring it to Philly, we love giant MURALS.....

Since we now have the tech to copy things like this to perfection, I hope someone moves it to a places were it gets the right and deserved respect

Land+Lord = owner of the land, building. if you gonna do something do it in your own property. this shouldn't even be a debate.

Hey Mr Berkowitz that's BIGGIE not Hitler chill out PLAYA!

ctg:now what make this building so special b.i.g: Biggie! 0:33

People start a go fund me for anything. If the community wants to keep it so bad then why won't someone who values it so much start a campaign to buy the building? The real donkeys are folks who cry and complain but don't do anything. I hope that petition works out but cash works better lol ijs

Well, I guess that Landlord doesn't like breathing.

there was a time when white people, and most black people who don't live there wouldn't dare step foot on this block! biggie is a cultural icon and a big part of why Brooklyn became so trendy. the reason why it became cool to say you're from brooklyn.... even if you weren't born there. now you can charge 2,000 a month, go to coffee shops, yoga and sip green juice in neighborhoods where people used to get shot, robbed and worse. pay some respect.

I would pay more in rent for that on the side of my building then a few extra Windows

what type of headphones are those?

Although this is an issue and the mural shouldn't be used as a ploy to make more money, Charlemagne damn near deserves donkey of the day for making a landlord in NYC a DOTD aside from how landlords are driving working people out of their homes due to gentrification and overloading the homeless crisis in NYC. In the grand scheme of things, this is minor. Biggie would be appalled by the fact that NYC is at its highest rate of homelessness ever in time. Most of the families in homeless shelter are just like Biggie's.... working class black and brown people trying to keep a rough over their heads. I love Biggie as much as anyone and I live relatively close to this mural but seriously people!?!?!

biggie's mom can buy the building,if she cares that much then she should open up that check book and make something happen.

How does opening the windows affect the mural at all? could somebody help me understand that part of the discussion ?

Hahaha the MURAL!! :D

"What's more Brooklyn than Biggie?" Dope question..

You can't get upset at someone wanting to remove a picture from their property.

People, all we have to do in response is put another BIGGER big mural up somewhere else, matter fact we will paint 2

one of the Hammer tones looks like a light-skinned Stevie Steve LOL

He owns the fucking building, your emotions don't matter.

That mural has been smooth since days of Underoos.

You would think the mural would add more value to the apartments than windows would. RIP NOTORIOUS BIG & SEAN PRICE Brooklyn Legends

OMG!!!! THAT PICTURE IS SO DOPE!!!

this one time I don't agree wid cha. I'm a huge biggie fan. But you can't just put a mural up without asking on people's private property

"Either they don't know, don't show, or don't care about what's going on with that mural"

The landlords in Brooklyn bleeding people with the rent that shit is insane to pay 3200 for a 1 bedroom thats more than some people pay for a house just to live on top of each other thats crazy but people love it

He's playing with danger tryna take down that beautiful piece of art. How dare you.

Wack💯 must've made that call to the landlord.........ON Piru🔴

with a name like that, no wonder he taking off the mural 😂😂😂

That's his property, nothing to debate.

landlords do whats profitable not whats best for the community. its all about the bottom line.

Charlemagne is my DOTD today 😂😂😂 not knowing how to pronounce 'mural' 😩😩😩 still hella love you though lol.

We should all email and call and tweet etc the mayor of NY and make the city save this historic art work !

Does anyone know the address to the mural ?

Pay this Man To keep it I think he Should get paid if not take it Down.

Sadly, it's his property, so he can do what he likes. If it's such a big piece of black culture, black people should come together and buy the building.

This is Pure Greed. If I were the people renting out his building I would move out. By doing that he has to come out of his pocket and pay for it until someone comes and wants the building and take over or just rent from him. And knowing him he probably has the people renting from him under a strict rent breaking contract. Smh

Diddy needs to buy that building. Problem solved!

This is why we need to spend our money. On shit that really matters and benefits us and our communities. But, y'all rather spend y'all money too flex for other dudes. That don't even give two shits about you.

hov or diddy gone buy the building watch

Mural lol yes yes yes so funny

simple bidness move.. ..he wants to sell the building for more than its worth 1. threatens to remove the precious "moral" 2. Hip Hop gets mad 3.Go fund me started to buy his overpriced in bad shape building 4.he sells as is for 90% more than its worth 5. buys home on private Island

The rent is only $1200 to keep it up. Tell Diddy or Lil Kim to handle that .

its a monument to a Brooklyn legend. it would be like whoever owns the Apollo turning that into an AMC movie theater you CAN but is it right?

Diddy should offer to build a statue or monument in place of the mural so that it looks better than a painting on one section of a building.

If he takes down that mural, they might need another landlord

I'm vandalizing that building every chance I get!

My first thought were "How does Biggie earn Donkey of the Day from the dead?" They should have put the landlord's image and if they couldn't find his image they should have left it blank.

Envy slowly getting the cut lol

How long has the mural been on the side of the building?

Its the guy's own PROPERTY jezzzzzzzzzzzz.

Puff should just buy the building from his ass and put in his own preferred tenants

Can't stop won't stop Take that take that take that

they shouldn't have to pay it.... but they should because biggie is supposed to be they man.. speaking of jay z and puffy

jay should buy it

I WONDER IS JAYZ GONNA STOP THAT!!!

where all these rappers that claim respect and love for b.i.g grew up with him puffy Jay junior mafia they got plenty money to pay 12,500 a month or buy this building from him this is crazy

Well, the Law Of HipHop says.... Own your Shit!!!

everybody just out 4 money

Being a landlord is about making money and that's it (no matter the race). If this is such an issue, those (especially in the local community) who have so much love and support for Biggie Smalls, should have no trouble financing this mural, that is plastered on Jewish guy's property. This is a weak a** Donkey of the Day, attempt. For those taking out their anger and slanging threats, towards that landlord...save it. Because we know nothing is going to happen to him. Prime example "Taj Patterson". Plus Brooklyn is flooded with them (Borough Park, Williamsburg) and has always been a port for people like Berkowitz.

good morning usaaaaa. i have a feeling that it's gonna be a wonderful day.

Trains gettin whiter and whiter everyday

Make it a historic landmark

It's his building he's entitled to do whatever he wants

Jason Whitlock lucky if he responded on Friday he would have got it 2x in a row.

MURAL!!! You can write a book but you can't say "MURAL"

I have to gr8 over there and take a few pics before it gets destroyed 😔

bout time

Ive visited New York that Mural is beautiful

come on man the notorious b.i.g is dope.

did he say moral lol

Diddy needs to put a offer in the man can't resist

soon as he takes it down , he'll be on the news next day

12% Property tax in NY? Probably higher in NYC? You can do anything you want if you buy any property..

that landlord WILL NOT be able to walk around Brooklyn
