Product Information, Audio Previews, Reviews and More On: “The “Notorious” film soundtrack not only assembles the best of the Notorious B.I.G.’s work, it includes gems like the rapper’s first demo tape, two new tracks from Jay-Z and a “One More Chance” [...]
Product Information, Audio Previews, Reviews and More On: “This extraordinary album is grounded in the visceral grooves of Afro-Peruvian music, though the real genius of the disc is how the group brings other musical elements into play.
