Thank you! I don't know why people who upload full albums don't post the time stamps for songs... It makes no sense you put the effort to upload it so put the damn effort into placing the timestamps in the description for the songs how lazy can one be? Anyways sorry all my rant for today XD
90s baby!!! These 2000 kid don't kno word play like Dis!!!! One of my favorite lines is I'll pistol-whip a priest for a cross piece" I'm lost Chief running through strips like I'm top dealer" I'm fillin 10 clips cap pellas dat can stop gorillas!!
Hes talented and stuff but ppl overate tf outta dude. He wasnt like biggie or pun. Them dying was like mac miller and juice. Big L dying was like gee money. Like Big L wasnt that big when he died and hes not that big now
@@saucetacular6092 dont talk shet man he wasnt like pun or biggie cuz he was other kind of mc. Boombap line and lot of punch straight to break your jaw. Pun was the rial shit too but was his style. Big L, Pun, B.I.G & Pac they were legends all in them style
I grew up on this cat, however, I have to disagree with that statement though. If we still had legitimate mc's, then he wouldn't stand out even more than he already reached. Though in the words of who in my opinion is the only real cat in the industry of "rap", is from my man Cassidy, "I have had the best punch lines since Big L died". I believe in my opinion that Cassidy is the best not only today, but more importantly of the history of gangsta rap going back to Grandmaster Flash/Melle and the Ice Tea era to the present. I feel you though, I have a college degree in Music Composition and I am very disappointed with where the demographics have shifted to what people are calling shit real. Idk, what do I know
yo when :55 hits........ fucks me UP. Remember smokin Ls with the homie as he showed me this, his back porch in the summer. 2 white boy outcasts in the suburbs I really vibed with his attitude and the storytelling. Fuck man such a tragedy, he would still be killin it.
There will always be goats who get slept on. Big L was easily the best MC to a cluey and switched on person. He was so ahead of time that his parents never met yet.... of course he was and will always be the best... unmatchable to be honest. The cheek, the confidence, the wisdom, the know, this kid had the perfect traits of being that kid who could change the whole game. Peeps were scared of L, I know I wouldn't of tried to battle somebody that skilled and witty. Definitely out performs biggie and pac in terms of what it takes to be a skilled mc. Much more thought and brilliance comes with big L's delivery, far more actually, I pick up a new line I never realised or that flew over my head each time I have a big L marathon. There will never be anybody like him again sadly, that beautiful era of music is LONG GONE. I mean the amount of times some of his punchlines have left me in stitches from laughter has been more times than I can count with my fingers. Not many rappers can do that for me.
Good morning Fam Coming from the 90s era Big L music is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 RIP ...may his legacy live on forever Man i miss this style of rap .. In a house or drivin ur whip His music needs ear play fo sho !!!!!!
LOL!!! It still would of been a Jay Z, just not on the level that he's known as now. But on the real if you listen to the old Jay Z, you hear Big L.. But I have been debating this for years, Big L is one of the best to ever do it, its sad how we lose all the GREAT ones and get stuck with all these wack azz mumble rappers..
@@omidnasimfar3272 big L was a more street version of JayZ i believe. They are different but Big L would have tpok alot of swag from Jay thats my opinion.
L was never under rated. Everyone knew what they were getting, Nas even said that he needed to step his game up after he heard Big L he said he was scared.
@@mervinlee9414 I just think he should get more recognition for his accomplishments in rap. He created a style, his lyrics were unmatched for years to come after they were recorded. The dude was amazing and we lost him wat too young...REST IN PARADISE L!!!!!!!!
1 of the most underrated albums ever Big L Was just about the hit his prime when he was murdered Just imagine how many more classic tracks he would have made And us as fans Can basically Be grateful that at least we got a little of his talent to listen to because he is truly The rap MVP the most valuable poet Nobody comes close his rhyming skills And the way he was able to put rhymes in rhymes multiple times and make it all make And the way he was able to put rhymes in rhymes multiple times and make it all make sense that's you And the way he was able to put rhymes in rhymes multiple times and make it all make sense That is a unique skill That rapper's these days definitely don't have
My nigga MVP, can't believe you are gone...FLYEST NIGGA, ILL EMCEE, only the most High knows why you had to leave so early niggaz still ain't seeing you on the rhyming tip...Bless up wherever you at Corleone, The Throne still yours, one love son
See L did spaghetti before Eminem. Both albums are non Skip. You play them through. Always delivered. That's someone who was destined for Top. Jealousy and BS. Forever through those L's up. Also GangStarr. More love for the greatest to do it. Clue is there... Respect 💙
One of the most unappreciated rappers of all time
I honestly think he is the most one

Been a fan of big L for 10 years now I was in diapers when he was spitting gems facts

@@r.a.pnomano3671 dont fucking say shit inless it actually counters my statement.
I found out Big L on the late 2010's. I get goosebumps when i listen to this album even in 2018 especially the intro. God, time flies fast.
its crazy that 2018 is now 5 years ago
Who the heck will dislike this!!!!
This is the classics they dont know hiphop
Platinum Plus is my joint. RIP BIG, true MC
My favorite rapper
Who's still here in 2021??? Big L top 2 all time and it's not 2
Damn Big L...1 of the best 2 do it. NYC 1990S-2000$ BEST RAP ERA EVA'!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Just imagine how relevant he would still be today. Would be a dream come true!
Your right man you're getting it

@@shofman6937 Yeah he get's "The Big Picture" 💯😎🔥
@@realworldmusicproductions6441 of all the emcees you could mention above L, you ended up on cassidy? cmon bro
ruclips.net/video/-lw3faC7Su8/видео.html
Big L was so far ahead of the game that it's still catching up to him.
Who ever put the thumbs down it must be for them selfs. L already gave them the L
Whoever give 'big l 'bad reviews means he ran up in their baby mama😉🤣
this CD was always my fav, all his music is good but this one is the best!!!
Best lyricist ever. Rip L
Big L, Jeru, Tribe called quest, Rakim, Kool G Rap I miss the golden Era so much
Respect to the art though these guys rapped their hearts out.
Amen$$
Literally lol they all got themselves killed by words or associations with friends and family
The flow, the lyrics, the productions, WOW! He had it all.
The voice,the humor,the harisma,the talent.
What can we say,after have to listen this album. This guy is one of the best lyricist ever. Album is just 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Punchline 'King always loved the open verse, the storytelling on some tracks are mad nice classic
Casualties of a Dice Game has to be one of the most detailed Hip Hop songs created.
One of the more under appreciated L tracks.
Only 37k views?? This world is actually backwards!
Exactly. But I bet Blue"I can't rap on beat" Face has 92 million views on one of his vids. Ridiculous.
I dont understand it
They never heard of Big L that's why he don't get the credit he deserve
My Favourite East Coast rapper of *All Time!* 🔥🔥
My top 3 fo sho..big L, Nas, biggie
@@chriscross7357 biggie, big l NaS.
Big L, Killah Priest, 60 Second Assassin
Dis fo da Big L of my life!!!!! my Nanny,..... Louise. From Philly!!!!!!
RIP to the best that never was
Tupac and Big L !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow!!!!!!!
amazing
The deadliest combination best of the best that ones that ever lived.
Big L es la calle, el frio, la lluvia, las noches con niebla, Big L es el verdadero Rap Underground.
Big L has been and will always be the illest mc to pick up the mic
Happy anniversary big L, rest in peace!(twin!)
BIG L IS STILLLLL THE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
One of favorites, Big L for life
R.I.P Big L & Tupac Shakur
BIG L!!! Best Lyricist Of All Time 🎤❤🔥🔥🔥
I lost my virginity to (ALL) of his music❤🔥🦴🦁🎙🎧💿💸
It's blows my mind to think that L was only 24 when he passed away the music he left its still to this day unbeatable. Really ahead of his Time ❤❤
yo when :55 hits........ fucks me UP. Remember smokin Ls with the homie as he showed me this, his back porch in the summer. 2 white boy outcasts in the suburbs I really vibed with his attitude and the storytelling. Fuck man such a tragedy, he would still be killin it.
"ask Bevis, I get nothin' but head"
I have now gone through purification thank you Big L . I wish cats like this would pop up like this
Deadly combination 2Pac and Big L
There's another version of "Deadly Combination" that features The Notorious B.I.G.
2pac wasnt originally on that song
you read my mind, i was thinking of that song Big L ft 2pac, deadly combination
Pac was about to meet L when he got shot, it happened a few days before Pac was going around HLM. Something like that I saw
damn yo hip hop will never sound likd this...
Big L was a musical genius, imagine how many classic albums he would've dropped if he was here.
There will always be goats who get slept on. Big L was easily the best MC to a cluey and switched on person. He was so ahead of time that his parents never met yet.... of course he was and will always be the best... unmatchable to be honest. The cheek, the confidence, the wisdom, the know, this kid had the perfect traits of being that kid who could change the whole game. Peeps were scared of L, I know I wouldn't of tried to battle somebody that skilled and witty. Definitely out performs biggie and pac in terms of what it takes to be a skilled mc. Much more thought and brilliance comes with big L's delivery, far more actually, I pick up a new line I never realised or that flew over my head each time I have a big L marathon. There will never be anybody like him again sadly, that beautiful era of music is LONG GONE. I mean the amount of times some of his punchlines have left me in stitches from laughter has been more times than I can count with my fingers. Not many rappers can do that for me.
Good morning Fam
Coming from the 90s era
Big L music is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 RIP ...may his legacy live on forever
Man i miss this style of rap ..
In a house or drivin ur whip
His music needs ear play fo sho !!!!!!
The heist is by far my favorite track,its like reading a book,no rapper outhere with a similar style these days,shame that
Missed this cat for real. RIP BIG L
"China without rice or the Holy Bible without Christ"- How am I supposed to listen to the whole album when you destroy me in the intro itself😣
wat
I thought he was saying he was insulted
bro same ahah facts
These punchlines are hard iam listening to this with my jaw dropping to the ground
Rappers nowadays be like "libidy bibity"
when hip hop used to be real not what we listen to today.
We?
Hip hop is, was and has been always real ...that's part of the definition. Pop music = pop. Fuck pop! Separate entities ...
Back before they turned hip hop to rap, there was always a place to party at remember that? -rakim
@mrkoolk123 Can't forget Biggie rest in peace!
Check out new Benny the Butcher, Elzhi, Ka and Phonte albums. If youre listening to all that autotune trap shit thats your fault
If Big L wouldve continued we may never heard of Jay Z like that.
LOL!!! It still would of been a Jay Z, just not on the level that he's known as now. But on the real if you listen to the old Jay Z, you hear Big L..
But I have been debating this for years, Big L is one of the best to ever do it, its sad how we lose all the GREAT ones and get stuck with all these wack azz mumble rappers..
jay z is nothing compared to big L
@@omidnasimfar3272 big L was a more street version of JayZ i believe. They are different but Big L would have tpok alot of swag from Jay thats my opinion.
@@jurzeeslugga5270 agreed. thats what I meant, like that as in not as big
But we woulda heard Cam'ron?
Classic Album!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Whole album is 🔥
Yes"th
NOBODY and I mean NOBODY gives a voice to the deceased artist better than Premo.
Big L was underrated at the time and as one of the greats real hip hop heads know what time it is tho
L was never under rated. Everyone knew what they were getting, Nas even said that he needed to step his game up after he heard Big L he said he was scared.
