today a 19 year old woman with the same drive and ambition as her legendary dad when graphic details of Biggs unsolved death were released last month without prior warning to his family understandably that old wounds were reopened now Tiana takes us on a trip down memory lane to remind fans of her father's life rather than death and tell her how she plans to continue his legacy how do people react to you in Brooklyn being the daughter of biggie smalls if they do recognize me it's just like yelling like hey you know but usually it's just give any thought aren't you like yeah you are at school at Penn State studying business right yes what are your career aspirations right now if I were your business major I would be a fashion nature I do want to open a boutique I do want to be in Brooklyn because of my dad and that's everything in the store house dude my dad in some sort of way your father has been following in in your dad's footsteps as well it is a a rapper he just turns it to T in October and he keep always been dabbling in it like having fun with it back he's good like he can rap does he have a big voice saw him in the summer you know he spent like a week ago together his voice wasn't deep and then he's releasing these songs on his Twitter and I'm listening and I'm like I call him like who is bad duties do you rap no no no you never tried I did one time I'm laughing horrible I can't boss somebody go spit from me I would do it I would rap because I think I have that stage presence you know I could probably wrap but oh my gosh writing is hard to do I'm a fashion person and you have let me stick to my fashion if your dad was here today what about three questions that you'd love to ask him that's hard I don't even think I would ask him a question I think I would just go somewhere with him I would just like hang out with him and just talk I would probably cook for him and you'd probably place UK or something so when you're out with your friends maybe you're a party and you know GC comes on hi hi what do you it's happened so many times before I just leave it's awkward it's awkward is it concealing that it is because I see people having fun and dancing and enjoying it I just I just feel like everyone but I know everyone's looking at me because they're expecting me to make some sort of reaction to laughing bedford-stuyvesant the last one represented you kind of landmarks spots around here where your dad used to hang out a lot dabbe house is right around the corner so let's make that the first stop okay okay 2:26 in James place where your dad grew up and he spent most of his life here yeah it just feels comfortable it feels like home doesn't feel like a strange place to be when was the last time you were here I'm going to say it had to be like six would be fine that's that's the earliest memory I have and it wasn't when he was still litigation where the whole was living here what do you think your dad was like as a teenager wild and fun and ambitious let's check out across the street the Orient temple where he used to perform where it all started I mean how impressed you by your dad's skills I'm impressed listen I say this all the time and the older I get the more I get impressed people's we've like a spur to be scared of a person that breathe the same air as me I mean if you really listen to it it means a lot you gotta really listen to the song that's one of my favorite songs on my half to death what do you think about the style that he's the rock since you're so into fashion I know you guys love tiger all these people they got it from my dad like all the focaccia and the gold chains and the Jesus piece that was right that's where I thought yeah this is above a shop where your dad used to come and get his hair cut you were half another half but I've seen some high top fade and he was like 6 to 15 know the normal fads that were going on your dad obviously was very close to a lot of people Diddy

of us you know a good foundation I love Jersey I love everything about Jews and he met in the hall yeah I haven't seen him but a long time since the notorious premier but he knows [ __ ] dad being who he is I feel like it's big name to hold up to so it gives me more motivation to be as big as us basically if I feel like I can't let him down at this point my goal is to not be Piggy's daughters and
