Mixtape heavyweight J.Period is continuing his B.I.G.-inspired March 9 Project by collaborating with Hip-Hop video pioneer Ralph McDaniels for the March 9: Video Remix Collection. The ongoing theme of the March 9 Project is answering the hypothetical question of “what would Hip-Hop be like if B.I.G. were still alive?” To that end, the remixed videos will show Biggie performing updated versions of his classic tracks. The first video, “Flava in Ya Ear (March 9 Video Remix),” premiers today. This evening, J. Period and Ralph McDaniels will debut more videos at Diddy and Mister Cee’s B.I.G. Tribute, commencing from The Lab in Brooklyn. The project wraps up its promotion later this month when BET showcases the video collection as a part of their tribute to the slain emcee. “I’m thrilled to be working with a legend like ‘Uncle’ Ralph, who is still so passionate and creative after 25 years in the game,” J.Period told AllHipHop.com. “Ralph’s vast knowledge of Hip-Hop makes him the perfect collaborator for what I do. Teaming up to pay tribute to B.I.G. felt like the perfect way to spark that collaboration.” Today marks the 13th anniversary of B.I.G.’s death. He would have celebrated his 38th birthday on May 21.
