The Notorious B.I.G. mp3

Christopher George Latore Wallace (May 21, 1972 – March 9, 1997), also known as Biggie Smalls (after a stylish gangster in 1975's Let's Do it Again) , Big Poppa and Frank White (from the film King of New York), but best known as The Notorious B.I.G (Business Instead of Game), was a very popular rapper who rose to fame during the mid-1990s.

Born in Brooklyn, Christopher Wallace was raised at the height of the crack cocaine epidemic of the 1980's, and was a drug dealer in Bedford-Stuyvesant. After becoming a convicted felon, he decided to become a rapper. By the time his critically acclaimed album Ready to Die was released in 1994, he became the central figure of East Coast hip-hop, reviving New York into a hip-hop scene which had previously been focused on West Coast hip-hop.

Biggie's double disc set, Life After Death, sold over 10 million copies and is the second best-selling Hip-Hop album of all time. Biggie is remembered for his storytelling, freestyling, and his easy to understand yet complex lyrics. He is also one of the pioneers of memorizing lyrics. His career was dominated by the Bad Boy/Death Row Records feud during his life.
