POP Notorious B.I.G : Ready to die (Notorious B.I.G)

Notorious B.I.G inaugurates POP Albums with this first figurine in honour of his album "Ready to Die". The Notorious BIG is an American rapper named Christopher George Latore Wallace. He was born in 1972 in New York City where he grew up in the Brooklyn neighborhood. Unfortunately, The Notorious BIG is also famous for his assassination in 1972, he had released only one album until then, which is the one whose cover is on this figure .

It was from the launch of Ready to Die that the Notorious BIG dominated the American hip hop scene. In this song, the rapper interprets the story of young Christopher Wallace, a young delinquent who is not afraid of death and is fully aware that his life will be short. Between semi-autobiographical work and self-fulfilling prophecy, this album is an integral part of the rapper's life!

The POP figure on Notorious BIG's album Ready to die is based on the cover of the 1994 album, which features a young African-American boy barely a few years old simply dressed in his diaper and sitting cross-legged. The child is smiling and his Afro cut shows off his style! The whole cover is very pure, on a white background and using an equally pure typography with letters in tiny, widely spaced letters.

The figurine is based on the character of the young Afro-American child with the original album cover in the background. It's a very nice POP tribute to The Notorious BIG, and a figurine that augurs well for the next POP Albums!
