Christopher George Latore Wallace, also known as Biggie Smalls (after a stylish gangster in the 1975 film Let's Do it Again), Big Poppa, and Frank White (from the film King of New York), but best known as The Notorious B.I.G. (Business Instead of Game), was a very popular rapper who rose to fame during the mid-1990s. Biggie was noted for his storytelling, freestyling, and his easy to understand yet complex lyrics. His short career was overshadowed by the Bad Boy/Death Row Records feud dominating the hip-hop scene at the time, but since his death, the Notorious B.I.G. has been celebrated as one of the greatest hip-hop artists of all time.
