The spirit of one of our most beloved hip hop personas was reincarnated today when the wax figure of the Notorious B.I.G. debuted at Madame Tussauds New York. The mother of the late Christopher Wallace, Ms. Voletta Wallace, was on hand to unveil the life-sized wax figure as press, fans and friends looked on. The Brooklyn High School of Arts choir provided the soundtrack for this monumental event, performing renditions of the dedication hit "I'll Be Missing You" and gospel classic "I'll Fly Away". The exibit will have its own room on the ninth floor of Madame Tussauds, where fans will be able to pose and take pictures with the figure of the late mc.
