I see from the article that B.I.G. quit using biggie smalls, when he found someone else using that name. I'd like to know who this other person is, and what they've produced? |

In the 1997 Life After Death section, this part: "That month Wallace was involved in a domestic dispute with girlfriend Charli Baltimore at the Four Seasons hotel, over pictures of Wallace and other girls. Wallace had told Lil' Cease the night prior to take the bag with the photos out of the room, but she had not." I believe it should be "he had not," as it's referring to Lil' Cease, unless I'm misunderstanding something. ] (]) 16:51, 15 April 2023 (UTC) |

I have a feeling this page was protected because of all the ] fans. But just a word to the approved editors. On January 15th 1998 a creature (Supernatural “Stand” ability according to the franchise) was introduced in the manga ] that was named after him. This was after his death. Do whatever you will with this information. |

In a post from WuTangCorp.com, a rapper by the name of Notorious B1 is detailed. Notorious B1 (Big1), a Gulfport rapper, claims that Biggie or Diddy stole his name and beat for the song Juicy from his song Big Daddy, a name similar to Big Poppa. B1 said this: '''''In 1993 i was signed to a small record label called Dragon Records in Gulfport Mississippi. I had a song that i wrote to Mtume called Juicy Fruit. I wrote the song to the actual record and it was called Big Daddy. Big Daddy was the lead single off the Mississippi Dough Boyz Album that was released in september 1993. It was released on the same day as Snoop Dog’s first album Doggystyle. The dough boyz album was made by two Gulfport rappers Tilidie and myself The Notorious Bigg One. (Notorious B1). Yeah I had the name and song first. I know it might be hard to believe but it is 100% the truth. We was on the radio first and in in the stores first. We sent packages to all the major Labels shopping for distribution. Just image my surprise when people started calling me saying they’ve just seen my video. We was trying to get the truth out back then but after B.i.g’s death i decided to leave it alone out of respect. I’m not fat anymore and a lot has changed but before i leave this b#### I want everybody to know the truth. I was the original Notorious Bigg One.'''''

==Are there any decent sources for father being a politician?== |

The book cited- Coker's- simply states of Letore that he was "a welder by trade", as does Paolo Hewitt's "'Scuse Me While I Kiss The Sky': 50 Moments that Changed Music" (2011). Coker and Hewitt are both noted music journalists, with decent track records, which is relevant; the Yahoo News source- these invariably pieced together from online sources- derives from 'BANG Showbiz' (Misplaced Pages:Reliable_sources has under Yahoo News "Take care with syndicated content, which varies from highly reliable sources to very unreliable sources"; BANG Showbiz is itself discussed at length here- https://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_116#BANG_Showbiz) and appeared in March 2022; its sources are undisclosed but unlikely to have been subject to the no doubt more rigorous examination undertaken by journalists Coker and Hewitt. |

When you look up the father's name and "politician" some sources, including B.I.G.'s biography on IMDB (regarding which content Misplaced Pages:Reliable sources states "The content on IMDb is user-generated, and the site is considered unreliable by a majority of editors", and also "editors criticize the quality of IMDb's fact-checking. A number of editors have pointed out that IMDb content has been copied from other sites, including Misplaced Pages, and that there have been a number of notable hoaxes in the past.") specify "small-time politician" (presumably implying local politics?)- an apparently self-published ebook, 'Snipers and Shooters: The Kill Shot Out Of Nowhere" (2011) by Joseph Carlson, provides "welder and minor Jamaican politician" implying Latore's political activities took place there- but in all cases the context isn't really clear. |

At any rate, notwithstanding the fact that it's by no means impossible to be both, the juxtaposition of welder and politician, lacking any further detail, sticks out somewhat. If there are any better sources than the Yahoo News one that corroborate/ provide more information on this, ought they not be included? I could find none in Google books nor in general internet searches. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 01:33, 10 October 2024 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |
