Jesse James
The one and only, Christopher Wallace is in our thoughts today. The wordsmith lost his life twenty-three years ago today when he was tragically gunned down. His legacy will live on through his music, as he will continue to inspire generations of lyricists to come. In celebration of his life and prowess behind the mic, we have put together a comprehensive playlist of some of our favorite Notorious B.I.G. tracks. The wordsmith laced us with his style early, gearing us up for what was in store.
Though he had a short career in music, he made quite an impact thanks to his undeniable flow, his swagger, and his comfort in his own skin. Biggie was different from lyricists who came before him, as was his style and his delivery. It was like nothing anyone had heard before and certainly nothing that we’ve heard come after.
Below we have compiled a collection of incredible material from the Notorious B.I.G. You will hear tracks such as “Mo Money, Mo Problems,” “Big Poppa,” “Kick In The Door,” and many more. Classics like “Warning,” “Juicy,” “Gimmie The Loot,” and “Machine Gun Funk.” We’ve also included some of his notable featured appearances.
Do yourself a favor and take a few minutes from your busy day to check out our playlist, ‘A Celebration of Notorious B.I.G.’ in the Spotify stream below. While you’re at it, be sure to keep it locked with The Culture Curators for more new music coming very soon.
