Big L (Lamont Coleman) shot dead aged 24 in Harlem in 1999, I think he would have massive.

Think he's bigger than he ever would have been always read he was about to sign with rocafella when he got killed and jay-z is either too insecure or too cocky to push other good rappers

That song or hip-hop in general?

If you're saying that hip-hop and rap are shit then you're both in for it.

As ive come to see we have some real hip hop fans on here, thought id give first dibs.

Im selling my vinyl collection ( not that big anymore tbh) but the 3 that ive kept longest and didnt want to sell i now have decided need to go to a good home as my record player is fucked. I have Main source breaking atoms double vinyl euro repress from 1990, the d.o.c original press no one can do it better and scarface oringinal press the diary. 3 of the best hip hop albums ever. Shout me if interested.

Hip Hop would benefit from more white/Jewish middle class rappers claiming to be 'taking it back to the real'

If L lived here would be no Jay Z completely ripped his flow hi style all his shit.

 

[rick773]

No question L is more talented , and jay stole from more than just him but L was going to sign to rocafella and no way jay z would let anyone outshine him , I think beanie sigel was much better as well and never got a proper push cause of dudes insecurity

Just listening to the gunplay (cops and robbers). Such a glorious idiot.
