Bad Boy set to release new B.I.G. Duets, on The Notorious B.I.G.: The Final Chapter

The final album from the late great Notorious B.I.G. will be out in December and will be a disc of duets. That will feature the likeness of Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Tupac, Nas, and Ludacris are among the artists who will duet with Notorious B.I.G. on The Notorious B.I.G.: The Final Chapter, which will hit store shelves December 20.

The disc came into being because of the efforts of his best friend Sean "Diddy: Combs. "Everyone in the industry wanted to be a part of this, and we got just about everybody," Diddy told MTV.Com last week in New York during a listening session. Diddy himself appears on the first single from the LP, Nasty Girl.

Others appearing on the disc include R. Kelly, Bob Marley, Mary J. Blige, T.I., Twista, the Diplomats, the Game, Akon, and Redman. Mary J Blige told MTV: "Puff called, he said he needed me for this Biggie album. I went to the studio and he played the track. Biggie and Pac was on it, I didn't hear Nas. “I was listening to the lyrics and I came up with my lyrics based on what they were saying. Mario Winans helped me write it."
