The Notorious B.I.G.
Christopher George Latore Wallace, professionally known as the Notorious B.I.G. or Biggie Smalls, was an American rapper and songwriter who emerged as a central figure in East Coast hip-hop during the 1990s. Drawing from gangsta rap traditions, he distinguished himself through a relaxed vocal style that contrasted with his often stark lyrical content. His semi-autobiographical approach blended narratives of struggle and street life with themes of excess and celebration. Wallace's influential presence in hip-hop secured his legacy as one of the genre's most significant artists before his death in 1997.
