The Notorious B.I.G. – Party And Bullshit

More about The Notorious B.I.G.

The Notorious B.I.G., born Christopher George Latore Wallace on May 21, 1972, in Brooklyn, New York, is a legendary figure in the world of hip-hop. Known for his distinctive flow, deep autobiographical lyrics, and ability to tell stories, Biggie Smalls, as he was also known, rose from the streets of New York to become one of the most influential and revered rappers of all time. His debut album, 'Ready to Die' (1994), is a cornerstone of East Coast hip-hop, showcasing his complex narratives of inner-city life. Wallace's career was marked by a notorious rivalry with West Coast rapper Tupac Shakur, which dominated the rap scene in the mid-90s. Tragically, his life and career were cut short when he was murdered in a drive-by shooting in Los Angeles on March 9, 1997, at the age of 24. Despite his brief career, The Notorious B.I.G.'s impact on music is immeasurable, with two posthumous albums released and his legacy living on through countless artists he influenced.
