Originally released as a limited edition four CD collection in 2009, 'Factory Communications: 1978-92' is a tribute to the label as well as a dedication to the founder, the late Tony Wilson. The album was released 16 days after his death in 1997 and went on to become one of the best selling rap albums of all time.

There's still plenty of the gangsta tales on Life After Death that won Biggie so much admiration on the streets, but it's the pop-laced songs that stand out as highlights.The RIAA has awarded the album a Diamond Certification for more than 5 million copies sold of the double-LP. LIFE AFTER DEATH truly rises, though, when Biggie is full control; he tells tales like a true alum of those hard-to-creep Brooklyn streets. A 2XCD album released shortly after his death Life After Death, to me, will always be his crowning achievement. In hindsight, Biggie couldn't have ended his career with a more fitting album than Life After Death. Released in 1983 at the height of the Satanic Panic, SHOUT AT THE DEVIL catapulted MÖTLEY CRÜE to superstardom.
