Born Again is the name of a posthumous album by The Notorious B.I.G.. It was released on December 7, 1999. Unlike Life After Death, this album was created with no input from Biggie himself and was mostly comprised of old and unreleased verses with new production and guest rappers. Along with the usual guest roster of P. Diddy, Lil' Kim, and Junior M.A.F.I.A., the album also featured appearances from Nas, Ice Cube, Eminem, Mobb Deep, Method Man, Redman, Beanie Sigel, Too Short, Snoop Dogg, and the Hot Boys. This album was not as well received as Biggie's previous albums; critics suggest this is due to its cobbled together nature.
