I think I’d like to see a movie about someone from the wrong side of the tracks becoming a lawyer. Or maybe a meter maid. Or something in between those two professions. Maybe Notorious will be wonderful and I’m sure Biggie Smalls was every bit as interesting as he was fat but… been there done that. We get it, if your skin is black you either become an athlete, a rapper, or a pimp. Or if you’re really lucky a pimp rapper. Hey Hollywood, have you heard about our new president? It’s not interesting anymore and it’s probably bigoted. I’m tired of rooting for some nobody to discover his signature sound. Let’s see him discover his signature legal brief instead.

That's not happening, so we get Notorious, the latest entry in a played out, possibly racist, genre. Get a taste for the life and times of the Notorious B.I.G. in the clips below:
