The Notorious B.I.G. ▸ Facts ▸ Comments ▸ News ▸ Videos
Christopher George Latore Wallace, known professionally as the Notorious B.I.G., and also by the stage name Biggie Smalls, or simply Biggie, was an American rapper. Rooted in the New York rap scene and gangsta rap traditions, he is widely considered one of the greatest rappers of all time. Wallace became known for his distinctive, laidback lyrical delivery, offsetting his lyrics' often grim content. His music was usually semi-autobiographical, telling of hardship and criminality but also of debauchery and celebration.
