The Notorious B.I.G., born Christopher George Latore Wallace, was an influential American rapper known for his storytelling ability and unique performance style. Emerging in the 1990s, he faced underappreciation during his career due to ongoing rivalries in the hip-hop industry. However, after his tragic death in 1997, he was posthumously recognized as a hip-hop legend. The initials B.I.G. originally stood for 'Business Instead of Game', and later came to mean 'Books Instead of Guns' after his passing. His artistic contributions have solidified his status as one of the most important figures in hip-hop history.
