Notorious B.I.G. makes his way back to the stage…
According to Billboard, ARHT Media has secured the digital rights to Notorious B.I.G.’s hologram in a joint venture with By Storm Entertainment which manages B.I.G.’s estate.
The hologram will be first seen in Faith Evans video for her first song off her duets compilation album titled ‘The King & I’. It is also widely speculated that it will be used during Puff Daddy’s 2-day family reunion show in Brooklyn on May 20th and 21st.
Biggie’s family reportedly chose ARHT as they have special patented technology that makes the hologram human-like. The company called this technology ‘Humagrams’ for this reason. The ‘Humagram’ can also be scaled to any size and can be assembled and reassembled in an hour.
“This project has been a long-time coming, and it is very special to me,” says Ms. Wallace (Biggie’s mother).
“Words can’t even capture how elated I am for the world to finally see my son again on stage and beyond. Christopher’s impact and legacy will not only live through his past work, but also the new experiences which have been made possible through ARHT Media.”
This is not the first hip hop rapper to make a come back in the hologram form – Tupac came back to perform in 2012 as a hologram.
Though reports are saying that this new technology by ARHT is like nothing before and is much more advanced and ‘real’.
