Christopher Jordan Wallace, who plays twelve-year old Christopher Wallace, is the real-life son of The Notorious B.I.G. and Faith Evans.
Jamal Woolard heavily prepared for his role for months, which includes listening and remembering lyrics to a variety of songs by Biggie, gaining weight and vocal lessons at Juilliard School to get the voice right.
Jamal Woolard reprised his role as The Notorious B.I.G. in All Eyez on Me (2017) about Tupac Shakur.
When a teenage Biggie is explaining how his rapping was initially a side-hustle to his drug dealing, the shot shows him rapping in a black and red lumberjack shirt with a hunting cap. This outfit, in fact, matches the one described in the lyrics of the song 'Juicy': 'way back, when I had the red and black/ lumberjack/ with the hat to match'.
When Biggie is rapping right before he lays the vocals down for "Juicy" he is reciting the first verse from "Unbelievable" and is told to stop messing around. The song "Unbelievable" was one of the very last added to the album Ready to Die and according to the producer DJ Premier, he never even wrote anything down, just went in the booth and laid the track down on the spot.
"Notorious B.I.G.: Mr. Webber? Yesterday you said I was gonna end up a garbageman. Mr. Webber: That's right. If you keep cutting class, that's exactly what you'll become. Notorious B.I.G.: Well, I found out a teacher makes 24,000 a year, and a garbageman makes 28,000 a year. I'm gonna make $4,000 more than his dumb ass."
"Sean Combs: We can't change the world unless we change ourselves."
