Well played.
The many fans of the Notorious BIG will have known that yesterday, March 9, marked the 20
th anniversary of the death of one of the most influential figures in the history of rap music.
Two decades on, people are still listening to his music and the anniversary was cause for another flood of tributes in his direction, including a very impressive one from the news team at WSB-TV Atlanta.
News anchor Fred Blankenship and traffic guy Mark Arum combined to seamlessly slip Notorious BIG lyrics and references into the course of their daily reports, including the line ‘Ashley, Ashley, Ashley, these downtown delays keep hypnotising me’.

Blankenship and Arum have form as far as these types of tributes are concerned, having last year done something similar for the late Phife Dawg.
