The life of hip-hop icon Biz Markie is set to be celebrated on Monday, August 2.

As Page Six reports, the celebration will be split into two parts, the first of which will include a private viewing ceremony for family and close friends at 11 a.m. followed by a public ceremony, which will be livestreamed for fans and well wishers starting at 1:30 p.m. on BET. The event is set to take place in Patchogue, N.Y., on Long Island.

Rev. Al Sharpton is expected to give the eulogy. Fellow rappers such as Fat Joe, Papoose, Al B Sure!, Big Daddy Kane and LL Cool J are all expected to make appearances and pay their respects.

“I just wanna say rest in power to Biz Mark, my friend,” LL said in an emotional video posted to social media after news of the “Just a Friend” rapper’s passing began to circulate. “So many memories man…you was in the basement of my grandmother’s house when I wrote ‘Rock The Bells.’ Used to always hang out back in the days we was running around Queens and Long Island.”
