Who Shot Ya?

"Who Shot Ya?" is a song by American rapper The Notorious B.I.G., released as the B-side of "Big Poppa" on February 21, 1995, by Bad Boy and Arista Records. It was included as a bonus track for his debut studio album, Ready to Die (1994). It samples the songs "I'm Afraid The Masquerade is Over" by David Porter (1971) and "I'm Gettin' Ready" by Doug E. Fresh and The Get Fresh Crew (1988).

Fellow American rapper Tupac Shakur heard the record and believed it was a diss at him, so he responded with "Hit 'Em Up".
Biggie explained to Vibe, "I wrote that muthafuckin' song way before Tupac got shot. It was supposed to be the intro to that shit Keith Murray was doing on Mary J. Blige's [My Life] joint. But Puff said it was too hard." Shakur didn't think this true, and stated, "Even if that song ain't about me. You should be, like, 'I'm not putting it out, 'cause he might think it's about him.'""Biggie & Puffy Break Their Silence — '96 VIBE Cover Story [PG.4"]. Vibe. March 9, 2012.
