Notorious, the Biggie Smalls biopic opens today
Christopher Wallace, who is more commonly known as Biggie Smalls or the Notorious B.I.G., was at the height of his hip-hop career in the early 90s when his rise to super-stardom was tragically cut short. Twelve years ago, at the age of 24, he was killed in a now-infamous drive by shooting. “Notorious,” a biopic based on Biggie Smalls’ life, hits theaters nationwide today. For a look at what this film means for Biggie Smalls’ legacy, we are joined by Voletta Wallace. Voletta Wallace is the mother of the late Biggie Smalls and is one of the film’s producers.
