On this day in 1995, Brooklyn’s own Junior M.A.F.I.A., the crew assembled by the Notorious B.I.G., released their debut album Conspiracy on the Undeas/Atlantic label. The group, made up of Lil’ Kim, Lil’ Cease, Nino Brown, Chico Del Vec(RIP), Kleptomaniac, Capone, Bugsy, and Trife and Larceny of the Snakes, was Biggie’s way of putting on his Bed-Stuy neighborhood and extending his influence beyond his own meteoric rise. With B.I.G. leading the charge, Conspiracy not only boosted his status as the “King of New York” but also introduced a roster of young Brooklyn MCs ready to make their own mark.
