He was the Rapper with the biggest Potential. I mentioned it in another Vid already today cause i think a lot of him every fkn February. Specially this year. He had it all. The voice, the flow, the rap intelligence, the freakin speed and chain lines that inspired many other rappers. Also he was smart. He didnt only party and fuck all night n day. He was informed about his world, but also the world itself. The by stupid mainstream ppl disliked albums. They didnt get it. He wanted to tell a story like Scorcese, and he wanted that 40s tribute beat. He knew many wouldnt understand and wouldnt like it, he didnt care. and he knew exactly that he was in danger, he wasnt stupid. but he was so stubborn and underestimated the insanity of one of the 2 most disgusting persons of NY. he didnt want an army arround him. jeez, he should have. if i imagine the project that would have been next. it would have been greatness i bet my fkn .....! well, that was his death sentence. too many ppl knew that his success would cost em a bit of their beloved money. and others also checked the nike sports bag and broke their promises. and the stupid wnb rappers who wear las vegas raiders caps since SOC was in cinemas, recorded super sweet 16 featuring this bunch of pricks and think that makes em part of the rap scene, they still download this low level crap on spotify since they dont own 1210s and praise this "label" as one of the best. its the reason why there are only about 10 rappers left i listen too sometimes who were there when i was a teen. but the fact this cancer that began to spread 25 yrs ago since the Killing of L was a message and why they talk about "keepin it real" they all pay taxes and the grey eminence laughs cause one of em gets one platin record after the other and the other one gets one platin omega, platek pp, cars built in italy and get smashed by a cheap rx-7....no, i think the rap scene is dead. it only lives on youtube, but on channels like this, owned by singapoore companies and completely created by bought software. one luck we had that many us soldiers in germany back in the day, otherwise i micht had missed L too.
@@fatimacottle1968 jesus, he would have puked about such a comment. do you know at least a bit what kind of a guy he was even without knowing him in person ? i can tell ya. he was funny, loyal (thats why the jay-z deal never happened). he loved typical oldschool mafia / crook shit like dillinger, babyface, bumpy, capone, gotti and their "soldiers". he hated the crap some ppl released, he hated the vid to "put it on" but needed a fast deal, he hated the beginning of the end of the internet and the only thing that is not painful about his murder is that he does not have to see posts like yours. "evildoers" "spirits" what the fuck you think he was? a fkn priest or an elementary teacher ? jeez some ppl obiously dont understand the term " rollin in his grave".
For sure the biggest in New York history. I would say Soulja Slim, Tupac or Big if you talking hip hop history. Pun or big if you talking NY history personally
When a lyrical legend like Nas says he was scared of you lyrically, you must be a legend yourself. Or at least he could have been. R.I.P. my favorite rapper.
thats why u gotta gtfo the streets once u start making waves in rap, bro was THE BEST rapper on earth, and was walking around his city with a target on his back
Man am 25 years old and just discovered this guy on Spotify. Am a real hiphop fan from the Netherlands but never heard of him. He got crazy punchlines and flow
Big L knew he was great bro just like pac and biggie they’re not here to see the impact but they all knew they would be popular forever. They were better than all the guys who survived and made it this long today. Trust me they knew. They also knew that the 90’s was a deadly time in hip hop and that cause they held the top spots they were targets. They went in and made a legendary footprint
Big L got cosign by jayz and dame dash and others and got signed to record label and released an album that did basically no sales so he got dropped. he wouldnt have been popular.
He’s my favorite of all time to this day. In my teens I had a bad break up and Ls music got me through that shit. Something about how he rhymes just builds my confidence it’s hard to explain
love to see how people still love and remember me idk man but im back again for everyone who loved me from heart . A SMOOTH KID THAT WILL RUN UP IN YOUR BABY MOTHER
Big L is one of my favorites even though he didnt release a lot of music. its a shame he didnt get to have a proper carreer. should have been one of the legends.
Big L slayed JayZ on that radioshow. Jay z kept up. Barely. Big L rhyme schemes and bars were way ahead of jayZ he struggled to keep up. Big L was a monster
You dudes are nutz, his lifestyle was his own demise, he took his self out! I already knew about what happened to him before this video, even though it definitely add more details, dude and his brother was into street ish, that what got him killed! Can't go around sticking up stash houses and think there won't be a repercussion, don't care who you are, if someone in your crew involved you are involved, doesn't matter if you was there or not! He definitely had his own style and was on his way, it was bad timing and marketing, also his involvement with the street ish!
First off big L put out two albums secondly on my pops grave I was putting people on in 99-00 about his second album and how so many people stole big L style back then smdh Ebonics is crazy so many people copied that scenario and rap flow 9& freestyle is one of the greatest freestyles of all time I mean back then when I was playing his first and second album people had no clue who he was yet no one never told me he wasn’t nice or people didn’t steal his flow oh yeah they also had a group called NFL which stands for Niggas For Life that was back around them children of the corn days I go way back when it comes to Big L he was truly the best of his era definitely one of the best ever
This is sad. Dude clearly got set up and didn’t even know it: left the house blindly walking to meet a friend while the shooter just hid waiting for him… 9 times in the head and chest? Yeah naw that’s an assassination
Man, i bought the ethylene book just to read the description of the scene. As i read it more, the sadder i became. If only he didnt get involved in his brothers situation and/or if dame dash got to him sooner afyer his debut 😢. Big l was doing clubs and house shows to showcase his talent.
Big L only died because he was told to do a hit and kill the person that killed him but he heard what L was gonna do and shot him first. He mustve been scared from how much times he shot big l. Also big l killed people. Big l wasnt innocent. Also big l was involved in a hit before this. Just because he was a very good rapper doesnt mean he was innocent
to me big L was one of the original serious metaphor punchline creators.. 1/5 that taught me how to rap & put it on beat was the first beat I ever wrote a song to in 5th grade .. rap would be incredibly different and maybe on another level just cause this one dude alone 🥲😌
It's not the quantity of records that makes a rapper but the quality! Just one verse from Big L makes you understand his superiority in rap.... Rest in Heaven L.
Big L is one of my fav, be he did not start shit, bruh. You could definitely say he's an early innovator of the sub-genre, but the originator of horrorcore is Ganxsta N-I-P from Houston, Texas. Wrote for the Geto Boys, got a platinum plaque way before L put out Devil's Son.
@@snus9088Big Lurch the best if anything at that shit. Unfortunate what happened to him to, he clearly feels horrible about it. People say cocaine is a hell of a drug but they wouldn’t be saying that if they tried PcP

Big L murdered Jay on that freestyle. Big L is in my top 3. What a rapper Lord Finesse is so smooth the way he raps. He doesnt get talked alot about either which is strange. Even Nas said Finesse was a nice rapper meaning sick.
Its such a shame howmany greats were killed around Diddy and Jay. The game's worst kept secret is Diddy stacking booties and bodies, Jay's been more low key about it but you cant convince me L's death wasnt Jay's removing his main competition just like he would remove Aliyah after which Beyonce really blew up.

lol stra8 weirdos, L was and his brother was into some street ish, unfortunately his actions was the cause of his own demise, don't know why people come up with goofy conspiracy theories!
His LOTPAD album was great back in the day and is probably even better now! I can still listen to it from nose to tail and enjoy it. It's just one of those timeless albums. No one releases one album, gets immediately noticed by so many people, and is still relevant and talked about ~30 years later if they're not bringing something a little special to the party...

Hes right when he said L dropped one album when he was alive, Big Picture came out after he died. Primo, Pete Rock, DITC, Guru, Sadat X, Kool G Rap, Big Daddy Kane all helped put it together.
Big L is my top 5. I am from the Bronx ny, grew up there in the 90”s and early 2000s I was a kid when i heard big l and fell in love with his talent, so sad we got stuck with jay z “fed up with that bullllshhhhi” was my favorite song
Its crazy because recently ive heard his music and im like who the f is that?? I grew up in the 80s and 90s and never really heard of big L. But when i hear him i know automatically hes from the golden era and hes solid gold!
The legendary 7min freestyle between him & jz he had Jay stumbling mumbling like a new age Lil nigga today😂 L lyrics was insane and 100% independent "flamboyant 4 life"
"on the shelf is where your LP cold stood Because it was no good, that shit ain't even go wood" one of my favorite bars of all time, makes me laugh every time
When you make a song called “devil’s son” and proclaim that you’re not down with Jesus Christ.. you begin to realize the handwriting was on the wall for L from the beginning.. very tragic
@@isaiahwinbrone Nah people would clown him like they do every legend. They'd probably make some stupid meme about him. If you're around too long you start to get disrespected.

..bro was just watching every Big L deal ..the biggest what if in hip hop ..im not really fussed about hop hop deaths ..but would of liked to see Big L and xxxtentacion in later years
Big L is one of the greatest ever. However, he didn't create horrorcore. Look up Esham and Ganksta NIP. And also, he dominated Jay on the Stretch and Bobbito show, not "kept up".
The Geto Boys, Gravediggaz, and Insane Poetry did horrorcore long before Big L, even though he’s probably the greatest emcee with the smallest discography. Peace.
'LIFESTYLES OF THE POOR AND DANGEROUS' IS A ICONIC RAP PROJECT. THE 'L' STANDS FOR LYRICIST AND BIG L DEFINITELY WAS ONE OF THE BEST IN HIP HOP HISTORY. ✌🏽⚫️✊🏽🌳

Ur a whole goof ball

Because it was no good, that shit ain't even go wood" one of my favorite bars of all time, makes me laugh every time
His Mom definition of a strong black woman.
Why say black woman, she is the epitome of what a real woman is and does. Rip L...❤
This could be made into a movie.
there's plenty of movies with backdooring.
Every time you said cam name juelz Santana was on screen
What a legend- good job keeping his name on people’s minds.
Is it me or was this dude trying to rhyme and spit bars while he narrating lol 😂😂😂
He was so ahead of his time his parents haven’t met yet.
When you make a song called “devil’s son” and proclaim that you’re not down with Jesus Christ.. you begin to realize the handwriting was on the wall for L from the beginning.. very tragic
The world got robbed when L got taken from us. What an absolute tragedy.
Big L should've stayed out of the streets and left that lifestyle behind.
If he was still alive today he would put out multi-platinum albums
@@isaiahwinbronefr rest in peace to Big L 🙏🕊💙🏁🏁🏁🏁
@@isaiahwinbrone Nah people would clown him like they do every legend. They'd probably make some stupid meme about him. If you're around too long you start to get disrespected.
Big L only died because he was told to do a hit and kill the person that killed him but he heard what L was gonna do and shot him first. He mustve been scared from how much times he shot big l. Also big l killed people. Big l wasnt innocent. Also big l was involved in a hit before this. Just because he was a very good rapper doesnt mean he was innocent
Big L forever 🕊🕊🕊💯💯💯
..bro was just watching every Big L deal ..the biggest what if in hip hop
..im not really fussed about hop hop deaths ..but would of liked to see Big L and xxxtentacion in later years
Big L is one of the greatest ever. However, he didn't create horrorcore. Look up Esham and Ganksta NIP. And also, he dominated Jay on the Stretch and Bobbito show, not "kept up".
He was bigger than JAY Z. Get your facts right.
lmao No he was not. You must be young.
He was better but never bigger
Think you meant better not bigger lol
U put alot of info in a short amount of time...respect
big L is the 🐐 of hip hop
Id argue the group Flatliners started the whole Horrorcore rap genre. Big L helped make it more relevant back then
i’m pretty sure horror rap started in memphis…
Is this not the same dude from the other hip hop Channel
Hip Hop daily
@@chrisgoffe5048bro was thinking same thing before I scroll to urs 👊🏾
Bro very good video, but I would be even happier if u mentioned how the big picture was done after big L's death
I feel so angry 😡 😡 dat L Never got the credit he deserved
Big l one of my favorite rappers rip ❤
Dont get it twisted , L was way better than Jay during that freestyle. Jay is good, but theres so many other rappers that are better than him.
The Geto Boys, Gravediggaz, and Insane Poetry did horrorcore long before Big L, even though he’s probably the greatest emcee with the smallest discography. Peace.
Big L rest in peace ❤
Flamboyant ft Fat Joe is one on my favorite rhymes by Big L. Gone too soon. He lyrically definitely repeated.😔
Big L had huge potential
'LIFESTYLES OF THE POOR AND DANGEROUS' IS A ICONIC RAP PROJECT. THE 'L' STANDS FOR LYRICIST AND BIG L DEFINITELY WAS ONE OF THE BEST IN HIP HOP HISTORY. ✌🏽⚫️✊🏽🌳
Rest in peace big L💪
No one credits Big L with horrorcore -
Why do you keep showing juelz and saying Cam'ron 😂
Danger zone was my fav BIG L track . 😢 wow I’m getting old
Funny Right after they Signed coincidentally he gets murdered a week later 🤦🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️🤬😡

he had so much potential, big L rest in peace 🙏🙏
I can’t stand people who say Jay s is one of the best to ever do it. He is irrelevant especially compared to L
Nas murked him
The xxxtentacion of the 90s by potential
