HAPPY 48TH BIRTHDAY - NOTORIOUS B.I.G. (MAY 21, 1972)




Christopher Wallace, born May 21, 1972, became one of the greatest rappers of all time during his short career. Known as The Notorious B.I.G., Biggie Smalls or Biggie, the Brooklyn rapper made a huge impact on the world of hip hop. On March 9, 1997, he was assassinated, gunned down in Los Angeles, California at the young age of 24. Biggie often referred to himself as Frank White, Christopher Walken's infamous gangster from "The King of New York." "The Source" echoed Biggie's bravado, proclaiming him New York's rap rex on the July 1995 cover. A truly larger than life presence, Biggie stood 6-feet-3 inches tall and weighed well over 300 pounds. He left an indelible mark on hip hop culture through his lyrical dexterity and delivery.
