Wack 100 may not think The Notorious B.I.G. is a legend, which he said on Nick Cannon's radio show earlier this month. But it's safe to assume that millions of other people do. And proof of that is a mural of the late rapper that popped up in East Atlanta, at 1271 Glenwood Ave. recently.

The mural was painted by popular North Carolina artist Brian "Jeks" Lewis, who was hired by Optimo Cigars, and it shows three images of Big. One shows him holding a gold pendant, and two smaller ones show the legendary rhymer sitting down.

"The inspiration came from [The Notorious B.I.G.'s] dialogue of talking to himself about himself and it gave me the idea that everybody has a good and bad on their shoulders whispering in the ear," said Jeks of the mural's three images. "It’s all the same Biggie."

How do you like what he created?
