Success in Death



One of the Notorious B.I.G.'s livest songs is "You Are Nobody til Somebody Kills You." In this song, he discusses how being assassinated makes not only the victim but also the assailant famous. Maybe he had a point when it came to artists and death. Biggie, along with Tupac, Marvin Gaye, and many others sold more records after they were assassinated. Likewise, a new report says Michael Jackson has sold over 300 million albums since his assassination. Music's allure is ambivalent. We love music because she is attractive, but we hate her because she likes to entertain all forms of company. Let me be first to say Happy Birthday to the King of Pop, RIP to Pac, BIG, and the illustrious Marvin Gaye.. Click on the photo to read up on how Michael Jackson's estate has grossed $1bn.
