Biggie: I Got a Story to Tell Clip Reveals Notorious B.I.G.'s Jazz Influence

  • This clip from the new Netflix documentary Biggie: I Got a Story to Tell brings us back to the childhood of Christopher Wallace, when saxophonist Donald Harrison tried to groom him as a jazz performer by introducing him to artists like Max Roach. He explains that the rhythmic lyricism of the Notorious B.I.G. has "all the finer qualities of a bebop drum solo."

    Biggie: I Got a Story to Tell premieres March 1 on Netflix.

    Andy Hunsaker has a head full of sitcom gags and nerd-genre lore, and can be followed @AndyHunsaker if you're into that sort of thing.
