Who Shot Ya?
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Who Shot Ya?" is a song by The Notorious B.I.G. that can be found on the rapper's posthumous release Born Again, the remastered edition of Ready to Die and The Greatest Hits. It is also the b-side of hit single, "Big Poppa".
This song is known for stirring up the East Coast-West Coast hip hop rivalry, since Tupac Shakur believed it to be a subliminal diss song mocking his robbery/shooting in November of 1994 inside a recording studio in Manhattan, New York. Although Biggie and close friend Sean Combs were only one floor above Pac when this happened, they vehemently denied the rapper's accusations. The song samples David Porter's "I'm Afraid The Masquerade Is Over".
The Game used its instrumental on his song 300 Bars and runnin'.
A remix done by Serj Tankian of System of a Down is featured on the video game Marc Eckō's Getting Up: Contents Under Pressure.
