Biggie: I Got a Story to Tell

The interviews are great and you realize he is still the goat after all these years. That era was gritty and angry and honest and it was refreshing. Rap now is very commercialized in general...kinda made me realize how much rap helped form who I am today...the confidence rubbed off and of that I'm grateful. Honestly this is more than worth a watch....the interviews and backstory is pretty illuminating

I have heard podcasts cover the intricacies of his life, ones that spent four or five hours doing so, and they never came across as dragging the story out. Knowing what I learned there, this documentary felt rushed. Yes, the interviews with people he knew was refreshing. But as young as Biggie was, there was a lot to him and what he was involved in. His relationship with Tupac was far more significant than the 10-15 minutes they gave. There was a much wider conspiracy to his death than just revenge (though revenge honestly had much less to do with him, and more to do with settling scores with a much larger faction). It's not a waste of time per se, but it's not the boon of information documentary fiends will find wholly satisfying either.

It was kind of cool to see some more of the backstory and get to know the young Christopher Wallace before the fame. There is some interesting footage from when he was on his way up, but nothing really groundbreaking or surprising.

If you are a fan of B.I.G. you'll probably know most of the story already, but it was put together pretty well and from a bit earlier perspective than a lot of the other stories about him.

Really nothing new to see here if you have already seen everything else. Just another reminder of how great he was and what a waste his death is.

Lack of balance. But especially didnt like the glamorous light this posed of Pudd Daddy/ P diddy. The man known to be behind certain nefarious crimes and both suspects and witnesses have claimed was behind the murder of Tupac.
