Released nearly 25 years ago, the late Notorious B.I.G.’s debut album, Ready To Die, is looking at a rebirth.

The first solo studio produced album from Biggie Smalls was the only album released by the rapper before his untimely death in 1997. The album ‘Life After Death’ followed the emcee’s death, but the premiere Ready To Die album still resonates in the hip hop community and places Biggie in the likes of being one of the greatest rappers.
