BIGGIE!
His name of birth is Christopher George Latore Wallace, but if you've heard of this historical legend you do not know him by that name. He became known as several different names such as Biggie Smalls or Notorious B.I.G. Many critics refer to him as the savior of east coast hip-hop. The majority of hip-hop artistd were coming from the west coast and it was unheard of to see a succesful eastern hip-hop artist. This all changed when Biggie entered the rap game. Since Notorious B.I.G's death his albums have been consistently selling for years. Wallace began rapping when he was just a young teenager and would make money on the streets by exploiting his talents. He had an extreme talent to rap and began the largest feud in the rap game between the west and east. There is no doubt that Biggie Smalls in one the most famous and historical rappers to ever live. There's no telling what he'd being doing if he were alive today. R.I.P
