The Notorious B.I.G. “Ready to Die” 26th Anniversary Screen Print by Paul Jackson x Collectionzz

“It was a huge honor to be asked to create a poster for Notorious B.I.G. on the 26th anniversary of Ready to Die. I remember hearing the record for the first time in the mid ‘90s and being blown away by it. It was a new wave of hip hop for me and I was hooked straight away. This poster was trying to reflect some of the grittiness of Brooklyn and NYC at the time, and reflect his song titles within that world. Biggie always stood strong so the pose is supposed to reflect that. I like the image being simple yet somewhat direct and confrontational - much like his music.” – Paul Jackson
