Philadelphia, PA

1974

Rapper Charli Baltimore was born Tiffany Lane in Philadelphia; her music career blossomed after she began a relationship with the Notorious B.I.G., and she adopted her stage alias from the name of Geena Davis' character in the film The Long Kiss Goodnight. In the wake of the Biggie's murder, Baltimore teamed with producer Lance "Un" Rivera to release a handful of singles and soundtrack appearances before issuing her oft-delayed debut LP, Cold as Ice, in 2000. ~ Jason Ankeny
