15 years ago today, we lost a legend in hip-hop. The Notorious B.I.G., who was born Christopher Wallace and also known as Biggie Smalls was slayed 15 years ago, in a unsolved murder. With his words and beats sampled by the likes of Jay-Z, 50 Cent, Alicia Keys, Nelly, Ja Rule, Eminem, Lil Wayne, the Game, Michael Jackson and Usher, Biggie Smalls continues to put his stamp on hip hop and rap music to this day.
