BIGFANBOY.com special notes:
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't at least a little interested in the life and times of Biggie Smalls. There's certainly no denying the effect he had on the hip-hop community, and the legacy he left behind with his untimely death. While a movie can never truly capture the reality of all situations, I hear this is a fairly sincere and straightforward portrayal of the events that transpired in his life, both leading up to his fame, and during it.
