Puff Daddy And The Family Bad Boy Reunion Tour Presented By Ciroc Vodka And Live Nation - May 21

Brooklyn’s Barclays Center was the only place to be on Friday (May 20).

Puff Daddy and The Family pulled off one of the most epic reunion concerts the music industry has ever seen. Not only was the 20th anniversary Bad Boy reunion concert a nostalgia-filled love fest, but it was also a celebration of the life and legacy of the late Notorious B.I.G.

The three and a half hour concert was the personification of Puffy’s catchphrase “can’t stop, won’t stop” and a true testament to the legacy Puffy created two decades ago.

The two-day sold out concert featured performances by former Bad Boy artists, including 112, Total, Faith Evans, Carl Thomas, Mario Winans, Lil Kim, Shyne, The LOX, Mase, Black Rob, Cassie, and surprise performances by Jay Z, Nas, Mary J. Blige, Busta Rhymes, Desiigner, Rick Ross, Fabolous, 2 Milly, DMX, Swizz Beatz, and even Stevie J.

With a combined 38 platinum and multi-platinum selling records and over 400 million units sold worldwide, the Bad Boy Family Reunion Tour will now trek cross-country beginning August 25 in Columbus, Ohio. To purchase tickets, click here.
