Notorious B.I.G. and the Tragic 13th Anniversary of Losing Christopher Wallace.

"After years of conspiracy theories and books and documentaries, the mystery of who did it is still, famously, unsolved," notes Entertainment Weekly's Leah Greenblatt. More coverage here from the website on the impact he had on hip-hop and pop culture at large.


There are several tributes around the World Wide Web in addition to the EW.Com item. MTV has a nice recall article. "The Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac Shakur came onstage together in New York for a legendary performance and DJ Mister Cee tells the story," here.
