Recognise: Christopher Wallace was a Brooklyn born rapper who went by the name Biggie Smalls, on account of a fictional gangster, and homeboy’s inflated stature. He grew up during the 1980s and started dealing crack during the boom, because he was just too poor to be able to otherwise afford a room. He went on to be a mad famous rhymer and all-round cool cat, until he got gunned down in cold blood, result of a drive-by shooting and the bullets from a gat. Ten years later and there’s a fear people will forget that MC, such a good friend to Diddy, even though every time he opens his mouth he dedicates whatever comes out, to Biggie.
