From the film page:
"NOTORIOUS is the story of Christopher Wallace, who, through raw talent and sheer determination, transforms himself from a Brooklyn street hustler to become the greatest rapper of all time, the Notorious B.I.G. This story charts his meteroic rise to fame and his refusal to succumb to expectation. To be directed by George Tillman (MEN OF HONOR, SOUL FOOD) and produced by Voletta Wallace (B.I.G.'s Mom), Wayne Barrow, Mark Pitts (B.I.G.'s former managers) and Bob Teitel, NOTORIOUS challenges us all to redefine our notion of what is The American Dream."
