The Notorious B.I.G. Signed “Ready to Die” Album Flat with Incredible “Jr. Mafia” Inscription.
Offered here is an incredibly rare “Ready to Die” album flat signed by The Notorious B.I.G. in a black felt tip pen. Biggie has inscribed the album flat, “To Ralphie Sr. Much Love! Jr. Mafia on their way! B.I.G. Da Illest 95 Jm”
”Ready to Die” is the debut studio album by The Notorious B.I.G., released on September 13, 1994, by Bad Boy Records and Arista Records. It was recorded from 1993 to 1994 at The Hit Factory and D&D Studios in New York City. The partly autobiographical album tells the story of the rapper's experiences as a young criminal, and was the only studio album released during his lifetime, as he was murdered sixteen days before the release of his second album. The rarity of this album cannot be overstated, with only a handful of examples signed by Biggie himself.
Good condition.
