Ladies and Gentlemen
We're gonna ask you for some fanfare...the band fanfare because...ladies and gentlemen...sting has always gone ahead of itself.
They have done it again and again and again.

Christopher George Latore Wallace, noto al mondo come The Notorious B.I.G., Biggie, Biggie Smalls o Big Poppa, è stato uno dei rapper americani più influenti e amati di tutti i tempi. Nato a Brooklyn nel 1972, iniziò la sua carriera musicale negli anni '90 con un flow unico e testi realistici che raccontavano la vita nelle strade di New York. Il suo album di debutto, *Ready to Die* (1994), è considerato un classico del genere hip hop e ha consacrato Biggie come una delle voci più importanti della scena musicale americana. Collaborò con artisti come Puff Daddy, Lil' Kim e Jay-Z, contribuendo a definire il suono del rap East Coast degli anni '90. La sua carriera fu tragicamente interrotta nel 1997, all'età di soli 24 anni, in un omicidio ancora irrisolto. Nonostante la breve durata, l'eredità musicale di Biggie rimane immensa, con influenze su generazioni di artisti e una fanbase globale che continua a celebrare il suo talento.
