There Can Only Be One King - The Notorious B.I.G. had a string of collaborative hits in his short reign as he helped make Ma$e, 112, Total, Lil Kim and Faith become superstars, but there are a few more gems buried deep inside his catalog. As we remember losing Biggie 19 years ago on that fateful March 9, check out a few of his collabos that went below the radar but still blew up the underground. — Michael Harris (@IceBlueVA)(Photo: Clarence Davis/NY Daily News Archive via Getty Images)

Da Brat Featuring the Notorious B.I.G. and Jermaine Dupri – 'Da B-Side' - Frank White and So So Def's Batman and Robin passed the blunt and the mic when they dropped the funk for the Bad Boys soundtrack. Brooklyn's finest showed early on that his duet game was real when he spit, "Live with the funkdafied cutie pie / Gat by the thigh, the Smalls by her side / If you f**k with her you got to f**k with me / And we’ll be rapping at your muthaf**king eulogy.” (Photo: Scott Gries/Getty Images)

Eddie F and the Untouchables Featuring 2Pac, Heavy D, Grand Puba, Spunk Bigga – 'Let's Get It On' - Heavy D's DJ, Eddie F, branched out on his own in 1994 and displayed his production game with his compilation project. One of the gems from that album included a rare collaboration with Big and Pac murdering it on the same track where the B.K. don emptied out dutchies and bodies on this all-star line-up.

Pudgee tha Phat Bastard Featuring Lord Tariq and the Notorious B.I.G. – 'Think Big' - Big was deep in New York's underground scene before he took the crown and this hard to find version of Pudgee tha Phat Bastard's "Think Big" featured some of Big's hardest lines ever.Foreseeing his own destiny, he demolished the track as he spit, "I'm inviting you, bring your writing crew and they dopest rhymes / I get up in that a** every time / Lyrically I'm untouchable, uncrushable / Getting mad blunted in the 600 Benz / Ask your friends who's the illest / Licking shots, n****s screaming, "Biggie Smalls tried to kill us!"

Uncle Luke Featuring the Notorious B.I.G. – 'Bust a Nut' - They didn't call him Big Poppa for nothing and the King and Uncle Luke traded some freaky tales on the 2 Live leader's 1996 solo effort. No need to explain here but he definitely got it in... literally. This is a must listen when you get the time. (Photo: Larry Busacca/Getty Images)
