Woman hold her head and cry
Cause her son had been shot down in the street and died

from The Notorious B.I.G. (Ft. Bob Marley) – Hold Ya Head Lyrics on Rap Genius

This is a sample of the song “Johnny Was a Good Man”, a song about a man being gunned down in the street. The only difference is that it is now referring to B.I.G. being gunned down in the street, and probably to Biggie’s mom, who cried when she heard the news.
