This shares some never-before-seen footage, from his younger days, much before he became famous. If you know about Biggie, you pretty much know everything but just that this was told from a different perspective. I didn't know know that he had his roots from Jamaica. There's not much about 'pac so you won't enjoy this if that's what you're expecting. Worth a watch, only about 1.5 hours.

How is this documentary getting such low ratings? It's absolutely fascinating to watch. With wonderful interviews with people that knew him, his mother and his grandmother. He's together with old news footage and old footage of him this is a documentary worth watching so ignore some of these other low rating reviews.

This documentary tells the story of Christopher Wallace from childhood to his death . It uses amateur footage interlaced with old interviews. The worst interviews are of BIG as he sits in a chair and has trouble completing a sentence without taking a large breath. Not the guy you see jumping and singing on stage.

The east-west coast conflict comes into the story at about an hour. I thought "Notorious" from 2009 to be more entertaining.
