Nike creates Notorious B.I.G. tribute t-shirts

Nike has just released a series of Notorious B.I.G. tribute shirts that show the imagery of B.I.G.'s classic "Ready To Die" album cover with the Nike touch. Check out the black Nike B.I.G tribute shirt as well after the jump. Violetta seems to have a pretty solid hold by not exploiting her son's death...official corporate deals involving Biggy's likeness or name have been very limited, but as the Biggy biopic Notorious is less than a year away, you can expect more and more fashion and consumer products associated with B.I.G. and the movie to come in the near future. We still are waiting for the official Biggy Kangol hat line.

These look a little bit dated to me. Maybe they trying to go retro like everything in the kicks biz but it doesnt look good and neither does that Ready To Die shirt

Nike is trying to hard on this one they need to slow their roll on the old school street wear and concentrate more on them sneeks

Wow a post NOT having to do with a hip hop related movie/hip hop artist starring in a non hip hop related movie.... thanks woohah maybe you'll climb back up the ranks as a blog people care about that provides hip hop news. Busta would be pissed.

If someone is such a hater of our site then why would they bother to log onto it and let alone leave a comment? To "Hater" please see the above banner...it reads "Your Daily Serving of Hip-hop Entertainment & Lifestyle news". We cover stuff outside of the hip-hop music realm. That's what this blog is about. If you don't like that...please feel free not to come back.
