The Notorious B.I.G. entered adulthood as a crack dealer and left this world as one of the most famous hip hop stars of all time. He was murdered mysteriously and before that was arrested almost too many times to count. He eventually altered the course of hip hop with the release of his debut album Ready To Die, an album that served as a soundtrack of sorts for the highly publicized, dangerous, violent beef between himself and his one time friend, fellow rapper, Tupac Shakur but the whole saga almost never happened. Find out what changed the course of Biggie Smalls’ life and ultimately led to his untimely demise in part one of The Notorious B.I.G. story.
