Ringtones: Monetizing Biggie Smalls

Since I've heard good things about Duets: The Final Chapter, built on raps by the Notorious B.I.G., I can accept that the project includes some element of respect and is not simply a money making endeavor.

But I'm conflicted over whether or not ringtones based on the album are a legitimate way to extend the content or simply a crass form of business as usual. I'm probably just being a little overreactive but I shudder to think what Diddy will say in ads promoting such ringtones.

I like the album and I cant hate on using it for ringtones.

Yeah, you're right. Ringtones are just a natural extension of content, at this point.
