Despite a massive roster of engineers, mixers, and producers, the Notorious soundtrack is a remarkable capsule synopsis of the legendary the Notorious B.I.G.`s career. Every big hit is here, be it "Juicy," "Hypnotize," or "Warning," and they`re all left mercifully unfettered by unnecessary remixes or new vocal contributions. Also included are a few new, tasteful posthumous collaborations, like the Santogold-spiced "Brooklyn Go Hard." But it`s the totally raw, utterly early-`90s New York street demos of "Microphone Murder" and "Gangster Raw" that blow this collection`s value out of the water, and make it an essential part of B.I.G.`s bulletproof canon. ~ Kenneth Herzog
