Tribute to Notorious BIG aka Biggie Small. Considered NYC’s Tupac, he was ranked third MC in history by MTV2 in 2006. Often considered as one of the greatest rappers of all time, his double-album Life After Death, released 16 days after his murder, was certified diamond by the RIAA in 2000. It is one of the few hip-hop albums to hold such a certification. Two other albums were also released after his death. Wallace sold nearly 21 million records in the United States alone.
