Yes, actually…

Sole DXB usually brings out some top regional hip-hop stars, but for the first time this year Sole DXB festival goers will be in the presence of a piece of hip-hop royalty with the arrival of Biggie Smalls’ Crown.

The gold crown worn by hip-hop legend the Notorious B.I.G will be bringing sparkle to the Reebok setup at Sole DXB this year.

As well as marveling at the iconic piece, fans will also have the opportunity to snap a selfie wearing the crown, or have a professional picture taken by Barron Claiborne, the photographer behind the famous album cover.
