The Notorious B.I.G. Allegedly Apologized for Xscape Diss Before Death, Says Tiny Harris
The Notorious B.I.G. allegedly made amends with Xscape before his death.
In an interview with The Morning Hustle on Wednesday, April 30, Tameka "Tiny" Harris and Kandi Burruss of the R&B girl group recalled how the rapper — born Christopher George Latore Wallace and also known as Biggie Smalls — apologized to them before his death after previously insulting their looks on his 1994 single "Just Playing (Dreams)."
On the track, Biggie hurled insults and named the sexual acts he wanted to engage in with several celebrities, including Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Jasmine Guy and Xscape.

"I'll f--- RuPaul before I f--- them ugly-a-- Xscape bitches," he raps on the track.
According to Harris, 49, and Burruss, 48, Biggie allegedly apologized at a 1997 Soul Train Awards afterparty.
'Somebody came, I don't know if it was Diddy, somebody came and said, 'Biggie wanna speak to y'all,'' said Harris. 'I was just like, 'I'm going to see what he's talking about.''
She added: 'And you know, he was very nice, he was very apologetic and he basically said, 'I don't know what I was thinking. Look, I'm ugly as hell. Y'all is beautiful, and I just wanted to say I apologize for whatever.''
According to Harris, the most shocking part was that Biggie allegedly died 'probably 20, 30 minutes after that.'
'It was great to hear that he acknowledged that he was wrong," she concluded.

Biggie was killed when he was 24 years old, but he had already established himself as a rap legend.
The Brooklyn-born musician released his debut album Ready to Die in 1994 and posthumously released Life After Death in 1997. The latter is one of the only hip-hop albums to sell 10 million copies and reach diamond status.
On March 9, 1997, Biggie was leaving a Soul Train Awards afterparty when he was shot and killed by an assailant in a black Chevy Impala.
His murder is closely linked to the killing of fellow '90s hip-hop superstar Tupac Shakur, as the two were involved in a battle where Biggie represented the East Coast and Tupac the West.
