Mobb Deep fans are going to have the opportunity to pay some final respects to Prodigy. New reports claim a public funeral is happening this week in New York City.
According to reports, fans can remember P in-person Thursday (June 29) in Manhattan.
On Thursday, there will be a special funeral service for Prodigy in New York City at Frank E. Campbell, popularly known as “The Funeral Chapel.” From 2 to 5 p.m., open public visitation will be allowed for family, friends and fans hoping to send their final goodbyes to the revered star. (Billboard)
Last weekend, music mogul Master P bashed TV network BET over doing a last-minute tribute to P at its annual awards show.
A few days prior, buzz developed about the network trying to scramble for a BET Awards Prodigy tribute.
Sources involved with the production tell us Kim and Havoc were late adds to the show as presenters. They will also share some personal words, paying respects to the Mobb Deep rapper. We’re told BET Awards execs scrambled to put together a tribute performance after Prodigy’s death Tuesday, but it was too late. Artists had already signed contracts to perform at the awards, and BET didn’t want to burn bridges by changing their sets, which have been planned for weeks. (TMZ)
Last week, Prodigy affiliate Cormega remembered Prodigy’s legacy across social media.
