Chuck Baltimore, Where Are You?



Well, it looks like Lil' Kim isn't the only one to have a gripe about the new "NOTORIOUS" movie. One of Kim's long-standing rivals, Tiffany Lane, aka Charli Baltimore, should be more than a little annoyed that she was not portrayed in the movie... AT ALL. See, Charli was the late, great, Notorious B.I.G's girlfriend in the midst of his turmoil and break-up with Faith Evans. She was also the woman he was supposedly claiming at the time of his death. The relationship with Charli was highly publicized, especially when Biggie put her in his video, "Get Money". Many did not know Baltimore at the time, and being that she was fair-skinned and had blond hair, they thought she was playing the part of Faith in that video... This made Charli infamous. She went on to have a rap career, that bubbled but never truly broke-in. I personally always liked her. In my opinion she probably could have been much more famous if she had the right management-- I guess.

Charli started off on the Untertainment label with Cam'ron, and later joined Murder Inc with labelmates: Ashanti, Ja Rule and Vita.



Although the relationship she had with Biggie was well-known, even to his then-wife Faith, Charli was not portrayed in his film what-so-ever. I believe that true fans who grew up on this music, and know the culture will be disappointed if they have not seen it already. Charli was definitely a major player in this story, and it's too bad it was not included. Foxy Brown
once said that Charli was the hardest working woman in the rap game... Who knew?



Earlier this week, Charli gave her feelings about the issue on Vlad TV. WATCH:
