From one of the classic hip-hop songs, ‘One More Chance’, Biggie described himself as, “Black and ugly as ever”. Only he could get away with those self-deprecating lyrics and still be loved all the same. Notorious was one of a kind and today May 21st, would have been his 43rd birthday. The Brooklyn MC only had two albums, Ready to Die and Life After Death, but both are considered classics and you cannot name the best rappers ever without mentioning his name.
We sadly lost B.I.G. at the age of 24 but his legacy lives on and holds as strong as ever. To honor him on his born day, I decided to list his top five best songs for your listening pleasures the rest of the day. There will never be another Notorious B.I.G and the hole his death left can never be filled no matter what. R.I.P. Christopher Wallace, we will always love Big Poppa.
