It's been fifteen years since The Notorious B.I.G. was murdered in Los Angeles. The case remains unsolved, but today his autopsy report was obtained by TMZ and made public for the first time.
Biggie, real name Christopher Wallace, was shot four times. He was hit in the chest, shoulder, leg, forearm and scrotum.
According to the report only one of the shots proved fatal.
-- Gunshot #1 struck Wallace in the left forearm and traveled down to his wrist.
-- Gunshot #2 struck Wallace in the back, missed all vital organs, and exited through his left shoulder.
-- Gunshot #3 struck Wallace on his outer left thigh and exited through his inner left thigh.
The reports says .. after Gunshot #3 exited the thigh, "the projectile strikes the left side of the scrotum, causing a very shallow, 3/8 inch linear laceration."
The fatal bullet was Gunshot #4 ... which entered Wallace's body through his right hip and ripped its way through several vital organs ... before coming to rest in his left shoulder area.
According to the report, the bullet perforated Wallace's colon, liver, heart and the upper lobe of his left lung.

Damion "D-Roc" Butler, Lil' Cease and driver, Gregory "G-Money" Young were also in the vehicle, but none sustained any injuries. Diddy was riding in a Suburban ahead of Biggie and Bad Boy Records' director of security rode in a Chevy Blazer behind the two vehicles. Despite there being so many witnesses on the scene and numerous theories as to who killed the rap star the best the LAPD could come up with was a composite sketch of the killer.
The FBI got involved in the case in December 2002 because of "multiple source information" that Biggie was killed "in retaliation for the murder of Tupac Shakur" and that a rogue LAPD officer was involved according to an FBI report.
The FBI's case was closed in January 2005 when the U.S. Attorney in Los Angeles decided there wasn't enough evidence for indictments in the case. No arrests were made.
Biggie was 24-years old at the time of his death.

50 Cent has shown over the years that he has a strong business acumen. His latest venture is into the world of boxing with his newly formed SMS Promotions company.
The initial idea behind forming a boxing promotions company came when 50 tried to help Floyd Mayweather Jr. with Mayweather Promotions. As the business mogul looked into Floyd's company he quickly realized it didn't exist.
“It doesn’t exist. He’s a Golden Boy [Promotions] fighter,” 50 told the New York Daily News. “It would irritate him if you said it, but in reality he’s a Golden Boy fighter. He’ll sit there and say for Mayweather Promotions, ‘Here’s what we have going, but there are no fighters signed to the promotional company.’ When he said that, I said let me build it for him while he’s gone (to jail). Floyd is my brother, and I even excused him saying there’s a company when there’s not.”
The G-Unit mogul formed TMT Promotions, which was intended to be a joint venture with Mayweather. 50 invested $2 million signing fighters like Billy Dib, Yuriorkis Gamboa and Andre Dirrell. When it came time for Mayweather to reimburse 50 for half of the money spent he balked.
Yuri Gamboa and 50 Cent
50 adjusted by shutting down TMT Promotions and moving all of the fighter he had signed over to SMS Promotions. 50 believes that Floyd's advisers were the ones who ultimately persuaded him not to invest.
“His decision to not participate by not financially offering his half of the finances came by way of his advisers that are afraid (of me),” Jackson said. “If you start burying bodies, you start to learn your way around the cemetery. They don’t want him to be informed. They don’t want him to have information. They make me a complete enemy on what’s going on there.’’
Bob Arum of Top Rank sees a bright future for 50 in boxing.

“He is the one person that has the ability to reach out and attract the urban audience that we’re lacking from our fan base,” Arum said. “If he can energize the urban market where only Mayweather has been able to do that he could add hundreds of thousands of customers to the fights.”
Tune in tomorrow night (December 8th) on HBO PPV to watch Gamboa fight Michael Farenas for the interim WBA super featherweight title on the undercard of the Manny Pacquiao/Juan Manuel Marquez bout.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- One of the most popular hip hop artists in the country has canceled concert stops in Charlotte and Greensboro for this weekend. The cancellation comes on the heels of death threats but no specific reason was given for the cancellations.
A Maybach Music Group concert tour headlining Rick Ross was scheduled to appear Friday in Greensboro and Saturday at the Bojangles Coliseum in Charlotte. Rappers Wale and Meek Mill were scheduled to appear as well.
The threats stem from the Gangster Disciples, who have a beef with Ross. The North Carolina Chapter recently put out a YouTube video warning him to stay out of Charlotte.
Tickets can be refunded starting Friday, Live Nation Entertainment group said in a statement.
In the rap video the Disciples are upset because Ross mentions the name of the founder of the street gang and uses the Star of David to promote himself. That symbol is used by the gang.
"I think fans should be concerned. I think the parents should be concerned because you never know," said Paul Scott on Wednesday. Scott is a minister from Durham who is also a hip hop journalist.
Scott has been highly critical of the violence sparked by rap artists.
“Hip hop does not represent the real street. The commercial Hip Hop that Rick Ross promotes represents Wall Street and Wall Street cares nothing about the loss of human life if they can make a dollar."
