G of the Day

Today's G of the day is the Notorious B.I.G. Despite his premature death at the young age of 24, he was still able to be considered one of the best emcees of all time. He was raised in Brooklyn, NY where he adopted the nickname "Big" at age 10. Instead of being embarrassed, he embraced the nickname, and later was known as "Biggie." Because he was raised by a single mother who did nothing but teach, he was forced to find his own way to make money, and he did this by selling drugs. This path led him to later arrests stemming from dealing crack cocaine and weapons possessions charges. His early life did much to influence his rap career. He was able to release 2 solo albums ("Ready to Die" and "Life After Death") and a collaboration album with Junior M.A.F.I.A ("Conspiracy"). He was and is also considered by many one of the best freestyle rappers ever. Unfortunately, we will never know Biggie would have been able to do, had he been able to fulfill his potential. Still, what we do know is that Biggie always kept it G, and that is clearly illustrated in his biographical film "Notorious." I don't know if there is or ever will be someone as G as the great Chris Wallace.
