Notorious B.I.G

                         

                 The Notorious B.I.G or also known as Biggie Smalls, is an American rapper from the streets of Brooklyn, New York City. He's real name, Christopher George Latore Wallace. He lived with he's mum, a single mum with no spouse. growing up in the hoods was rough for young Chris, and how far can a mother go till she see's her son do the wrongs. So by the age of 16, Chris was already selling crack, hustling on the streets and skipping school just to keep it cool. He went to jail for selling crack on the streets of Brooklyn and when he came back out he finally could meet his daughter and stopped selling till he met he's friends again.

                  Since young, Biggie has loved rapping and has a big passion towards it. he used to create he's own raps so he could freestyle in the streets. One day he caught eyes with another freestyler and they had a freestyle rap battle instantly. He won the crowds attention and then won the battle. He was then known as Biggie Smalls. After that mini rap battle that happened in the streets, record labels in Brooklyn heard about it. Then came Sean John Combs, also known as Puff Daddy or P. Diddy. He was the owner of the record label Bad Boy. Biggie met him in Puff's office, he then asked if Biggie had been selling any drugs on the street. As Biggie was, he then told him to leave. But Biggie knew he couldn't last long on the streets sellin' drugs so he then stopped selling also because of his sick mum who had cancer. So he came back clean and was ready to sell, but what also happened was after he came out of jail he started selling again and almost got caught again. He's crew mate took the blame for him so he would have the chance to get out of the block and be a different person rather than a hustler. 


            Biggie hit the studio ready to do a hit then realised that Puff had ask him to cover a song that was R&B. He immediately thought he was getting insulted as he's crew members were also laughing at the back hearing what Puff was asking him to do. But they both knew that if it was rap and R&B, people would start listening to it and they would get alot of money. They had to be smart to get ahead of the game as this is East Coast time to shine out of the ground. The hit was a smash record and they have made it. "Juicy" was about his life from pour to rich and somehow touched the whole world with the rhyming and tempo he gave. till now nobody has a rhyming flow as good as The Notorious B.I.G, since then he made singles and more collaborating and also having a group called "Junior M.A.F.I.A" and making over 17 million sales. But as growing up in the streets as thugs he had alot of enemies and during the war with him and Tupac that caused The whole West side and the whole East side to collide in fights.
Gunning each other down or worst. Then came March 9, 1997 Biggie Smalls had died in Los Angeles, California where The West side players were living. He was there on vacation then on one night got shot 7 times in a drive-by assasination. He died on the spot and the whole Brooklyn couldn't bear the pain of losing a intelligent person who has done so much for the place he was born in.
