Hip-Hop Fans Share Their Favorite Biggie Smalls Lyrics 20 Years After His Death
Hip-hop lost one of its icons on March 9, 1997, Brooklyn’s own Christopher Wallace. With only two studio albums by the young age of 24, one of rap’s best storytellers left and impact before and after his death. With today marking the twentieth year since the emcee’s passing, fans have come out in droves to show love in tribute to the man larger-than-life itself, Biggie Smalls.
