May 21 is date on which Notoriou B.I.G was born and in Brooklyn this day from now on will be called “Christopher ‘The Notorious B.I.G.’ Wallace Day” in honor of the great rap legend. As DNAinfo reports , Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams declared Biggie Smalls birthday as a holiday and presented his daughter T’yanna Wallace and Lil Cease with a proclamation.<\/p>\n

“On his birthday, Brooklyn salutes one of our own, who has never been forgotten as long as his music plays,” says Adams. “His energy will remain and continue to inspire people throughout not only the borough of Brooklyn, but Biggie put Brooklyn on the map.”<\/p>\n

If Biggie was alive yesterday it would have been his 44th birthday. It was celebrated at the Barclays Center in his hometown as a part of the Bad Boy Family Reunion Tour. Biggie was murdered at the age of 24 on March 9th 1997, a few weeks before his album Life After Death was released. His murder remains unsolved to this day.<\/p>\n
