Soundtrack to the Biggie biopic: catalog classics plus Brooklyn Go Hard by Jay-Z and new tribute material.
Notorious gathers the film’s needle-drops—Juicy, Hypnotize, Warning, Party and Bullshit, Notorious Thugs—with a few rarer placements and new pieces. Jay-Z and Santigold’s Brooklyn Go Hard became the modern addition; Jadakiss and Faith Evans contribute tribute energy.
The album hit No. 4 and works as both movie companion and Biggie starter pack for 2009 audiences discovering him through the biopic.
