Forgot to post this when I read about it last. Every year Fader does an Icon issue where they spotlight one artist's contribution to the culture and bring you all sorts of an interesting and comprehensive study. They promise some fly shit. Andrew Noz has some choice words of Biggie’s musical legacy you can read here but I can't wait to support this with a physical copy when it hits newsstands on May 3rd. If just for the rare photos alone, the cover is remarkable.
