The Notorious B.I.G.
Christopher George Latore Wallace (May 21, 1972 – March 9, 1997), better known by his stage names The Notorious B.I.G, Biggie, or Biggie Smalls,〔(Notorious B.I.G: In His Own Words, And Those of His Friends ) (March 7, 2007). ''MTV News''. Retrieved March 11, 2007.〕 was an American rapper. Wallace is consistently ranked as one of the greatest rappers ever and one of the most influential rappers of all time.〔(The 10 Greatest Rappers of All Time ) (November 12, 2015). ''Billboard''. Retrieved November 15, 2015.〕
Wallace was raised in the Brooklyn borough of New York City. When he released his debut album ''Ready to Die'' in 1994, he became a central figure in the East Coast hip hop scene and increased New York's visibility in the genre at a time when West Coast hip hop was dominant in the mainstream.〔 The following year, Wallace led his childhood friends to chart success through his protégé group, Junior M.A.F.I.A. While recording his second album, Wallace was heavily involved in the growing East Coast–West Coast hip hop feud.
On March 9, 1997, Wallace was killed by an unknown assailant in a drive-by shooting in Los Angeles. His double-disc set ''Life After Death'', released 16 days later, rose to No. 1 on the U.S. album charts and was certified Diamond in 2000, one of the few hip hop albums to receive this certification. Wallace was noted for his "loose, easy flow",〔 dark semi-autobiographical lyrics and storytelling abilities. Two more albums have been released since his death. He has certified sales of 17 million units in the United States.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Top Selling Artists )〕
