Some rappers make music, and others make classics that will continue to get played five years, ten years, twenty years, and so on after it has been put out. Notorious B.I.G. was one of those artists that made timeless tracks that will be played forever. Exactly 17 years ago today on March 25, 1997, Biggie’s second and final studio album entitled “Life After Death” was released just a few weeks after his fatal last day on March 9th. When thinking about a good definition for “hip-hop,” this simply legendary double-disc album is the perfect thing to define the genre of music as a whole. Christopher Wallace will continue to go down in history as one of the top dawgs to ever do this rap thing, making it on almost everyone’s “Top 5 Dead or Alive” lists. Check out REVOLT TV’s tribute to the influential rapper below. RIP Big.
