I'll Be Missing You is a song performed by American rapper Puff Daddy and singer Faith Evans featuring 112. It was in memory of Evans husband Christopher "The Notorious B.I.G." Wallace. He was killed in Los Angeles on March 9, 1997.[1] It sampled the melody of The Police's Every Breath You Take song from the 1980s. As well as these artists, Sting (vocalist from The Police) joined in at the MTV Video Music Awards in 1997.
