Today in music history, June 28,  we go back to to 1997, when Puff Daddy and Faith Evans started a three week run at number one on the U.K. singles chart with "I'll Be Missing You".  The single went number one in the U.S. June 14 that year and stayed on top for eleven weeks.  The single was in memory of rap artist, NOTORIOUS B.I.G., who was murdered  March 9, that same year.
