@@dare_he_isnah Hip Hop is and always has been a sport. Nothing wrong with competition as long as it never crosses a line of real disrespect. It’s just like I’m basketball, certain people think MJ is the goat, some think it’s Bron, some thinks Kareem, etc. And regardless of who you think it is, you can still respect the greatness of other players and what they bring to the game. Same shit with MC’s.

It’s amazing that those young folks have an interest to be involved in hip hop..possibly journalism and they’ve never heard of Big L or Tribe Called Quest! It’s the same if you claim to love Rock music..would you not want to know about artists and groups before your time? The internet, with a wealth of information at peoples finger tips has kept so many (Espicially younger generation) so ignorant about any type of history and context!
Sway's like a Hip Hop historian interviewer whatever the term is for that lol He's been doing his thing for Hip Hop documentation Understandable why he sounded "passionate" about that lol
I'd say Inspectah Deck from the Wu is the closest dude you could compare to L. Not talked about nearly enough and always clearly the best rhymes on a song with other legends
Mac always been my favorite artist of any genre, since Kool-Aid and Frozen Pizza. He got me into hip hop. Big L though… Dude spit absolute heat every time he got on a mic and made it look easy. Would love to some see someone dub Mac and L together.

Big L was Jay Z 1st blood sacrifice for his white masters aka arse bandit gang of the music industry Just like Biggie was puffy 1st blood sacrifice for his white masters of the music industry aka arse bandit gang !!!

Most underrated rapper. But the guy was unreal his lyrics was just beyond brilliant.
Along with Nas, Biggie, king Ra and Pun one of the very few true rap savants
king ra is rakim right?
@@eyosyastebeje9555dyou think he meant king ja?
There are more rapper who compliment Big L like Jay Z, Nas, Lord Finesse, Royce da 5'9, Asap Rocky etc.. Anyway RIP Big L Hiphop Miss You

I love these hiphop stories. Makes you feel like you’re there
The enemy one of the best songs I've ever heard. Still listen everyday
Yo I'm a huge jazz lover and L had MAD bebop phrases in his bars. L one of the best of all time.
Legend 🔥
Being a HIPHOP JOURNALIST and not knowing TRIBE CALLED QUEST AND BIG L is absolutely crazy
And being a real hip hop fan not giving Big L his props is completely insane.

There should be waaaay more on this video
Big L was the truth. Its a shame we have people who just don't give a F$$k and take out anyone.
Story goes, there was beef between Ls big brother and the shooter, but Ls brother was in jail so they got L instead (allegedly)
@@BottleCapStreetBoth of his brothers were locked up. You hit the nail on the head about the story.

I can listen to JadaKiss rap all day. Best voice I've heard in hip hop
Jada / Pac / DMX / Xzibit / Nate Dogg / Eazy E / Bonecrusher / Busta Rhymes / Big L / Method Man / Ol Dirty / Biggie / Krayzie / etc
Shit legit bothers me that he died so young
R.I.P To Legendary Mc Big.L ..he inspired me and many others 💯💯
Miss you Lamont C
Lamont Coleman was just a technically perfect rapper.
big L is criminally underrated
LLBIGL😢💔🕊️
Big L RIP - DJ Premier
🐐
Imagine a beef between em and L
Jadakiss is the closest thing to Big L today. Bars after bars after bars. After Kiss then Pusha T
I disagree, Shyhiem the Rugged Child resembles Big L style more then any other hip hop artist.
Facts imo Jadakiss is definitely one of the greats as well and very underrated as well.
Probably Eminem
I'd say Inspectah Deck from the Wu is the closest dude you could compare to L. Not talked about nearly enough and always clearly the best rhymes on a song with other legends
Pusha t 😂😂😂 yeah right
RIP Big L bodied b4 his time gdayum shsme
Thats Like Hockey witout fights Like China witout rice like the bible witout Christ
I would’ve loved a mac amd big L collab
Mac always been my favorite artist of any genre, since Kool-Aid and Frozen Pizza. He got me into hip hop. Big L though… Dude spit absolute heat every time he got on a mic and made it look easy. Would love to some see someone dub Mac and L together.
Interesting
Hip-Hop took a Big L when Big L was murdered. RIP.
Mac Miller talking bout BIG L
"You take some big and some pac and mix em up in a pot; sprinkle a little Big L on top what the f*** do you got? You got the REALEST AND ILLEST KILLERS TIED UP IN A KNOT, the juggernauts of this rap sh*t, like it or not..." -Eminem
I can kind of give a pass for not knowing L. I know people in their 40’s and 50’s who don’t know him. If you don’t know tribe, that’s criminal. Especially if you’re sitting on a hip hop show asking Mac Miller questions.
Low key. Dame would’ve been okay if Big L was signed to rocafella.
Mase would disagree about the fair and square comment from fat joe😂 R.I.P L ONE OF THE ILLIST
L penned j verse on that 7 min free. It ain’t hard to tell the style. Also put j on with that too.
Highly doubt it. Jay had that verse way back in 91 on a freestyle he did with Big Daddy Kane.
No. He didn’t. Stop disrespecting Jay-Z.
I wanna like but it's 666 and Big L was the Devil's Son...
What’s 666? Where is it?
@@artistsonartists2498 666 likes
@@HittokiriBattousai17 If you liked it wont be 666 🤷♂
Wack Miller is right
Edit: Mac Miller
I think I got it right the first time
Jay z was responsible for his murder.
I could see that. On a conspiracy level. The person who everyone thought did it is gone as well. We will probably never know.
I skate pass his mural and 139 everyday. I also think man what if L was still here
Big L was Jay Z 1st blood sacrifice for his white masters aka arse bandit gang of the music industry
Just like Biggie was puffy 1st blood sacrifice for his white masters of the music industry aka arse bandit gang !!!
Probly. Same with Aliyah. Jay Z be making room for new comers smh
they got invited on sway in the morning to act as journalists and don't know who a tribe called quest is lol

But I bet they know who Soulja boy is lol.
