Fair use rationale for The Notorious B.I.G.
This is a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion here is claimed as fair use by I (Laalaaa 12:40, 4 February 2007 (UTC)) because:
 * It illustrates an educational article the performer and co-writer of this piece of music, The Notorious B.I.G.
 * It is used to demonstrate The Notorious B.I.G.'s storytelling ability in songs, which is discussed within the article.
 * It is a sample of no more than 30 seconds from a much longer recording, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording or to recreate the original recording.
 * It is of a lower quality than the original recording.
 * It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value.
 * It is believed that this sample will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original recording.
