“The bitch type I dislike, rougher than a fist fight” man L was a beast .. I remember a Nas interview where he talks about when he 1st heard big L he was shook
That's my favorite Big L freestyle, Plus that Lifestyle of the Poor and Dangerous LP is a Classic, Flamboyant and The Big Picture album were Dope but that first LP was the Classics.
Can yall imagine Vlad asking him a quewtion about 69 and LP be like " nah son is a wild rat word word in the q niggas would never get down like that word word " lol
The thing is Vlad is not knowledgeable enough about hip hop to make it dope in the "long" run. Notice he Only ask surface shit, he not really interested in the music like that
*"I'm so ahead of my time my parents haven't met yet"* - Big L. L was a *legend.* Lyrically he was unstoppable. I ignored him for years until a decade ago. Now I'm so inspired by him that I have an upcoming song *dedicated* to his style🎤🎧👑🔥
I think that's the first song that made me go listen to his first album some few months ago, and all I can say is that was one the best album I've ever heard if not the best
lmao at Vlad saying Lifestylez Of Da Poor & Dangerouz was just "cool". One of the greatest album debuts of that era of just quintessential, dark and rugged NY Boom Bap. not surprising coming from him, though.
Dirty Laundry Media Exactly. This dude uses black culture to make himself rich but prides himself on the downfall of the same people. Gotdamn brah. U got money. We get it. Enjoy. But fuck. What’s your issue?
The Big Picture may have had bigger songs like Ebonics that reached a larger audience but Lifestyles Of The Poor And Dangerous was a grittier and more cohesive album. I personally feel that Lifestyles is his best album...Also not to jump on the bandwagon of constantly dissin' Vlad but this dude called "Ebonics", "Bonics"😂. Come on Vladimir.
@@presdurst3325 lol peace bro. For the record I would pretty much consider both of the albums to be classic and obviously Big L is and was an amazing artist. I'll even say that when comparing both albums The Big Picture sounds newer and more relevant while one could make the argument today that parts of Lifestyles sounds a bit dated. I still favor the first one, but both are great bodies of work.
I'm not positive but aside from all the vocals, I believe The Big Picture due to Big L' s untimely death was put together and packaged as a final project without Big L having final say over production, cover art, etc. If I'm wrong about that someone please correct me.
trump of God it should be T.R.O.Y., unless it stands for They Reminisce Over Y, you need a period after the last letter to show that it stands for a word.
I feel like the big picture was made to blow up, smoother flow, less punchlines and hardcore lyrics. LOTPAD was underground, those dark beats, punchlines, hardcore style, its raw. He just changed his style a bit, In my opinion he would blow up if he finished The Big Picture.
I'm gonna watch EVERY minute of that 1 hour and 2 min documentary! Thanks for the recommendation fam ✊🏽. I love hip hop history! Stuff I vaguely remember because I was YOUNG YOUNG during the Golden Era.
Yeah much respect to fat Joe and the professor but the whole he got killed cause they couldn't get his brother thing is disputed by some reputable of Harlem dudes
BK Bob Nah, mumble rappers, trap rappers, and auto tune rappers come a dime a dozen. Rappers like Big L with genius lyrics and impeccable flow and delivery are as rare as finding a diamond in the sand
@@deathbymazda not in NY they don't. Plenty of dudes were spitting like that. Big L was nice but since he returned dudes are going overboard with his placement.
someone else Big L was 10x Better than Biggie. He was the better lyricist and the better storyteller. He just didn’t have the mainstream appeal nor did he have any mainstream classics as big, but he was MUCH better than Big. For sure
"I be that young, pretty smooth, fly glorious kid, A bad boy just like notorious big, I rock a fella like Sean Carter, With more game than Ron Harper, The bomb sparker, rapper, slash charm robber."...
Big L got popped not bc they couldn't get to his big bro...he got spotted while goin on a mission n they got to him before he got to them....RIP to a real one
Big L will allways be in my top 10 absolute legend. Tupac, Big L, Biggie, Eazy E, Nas, Big Pun, Twista, Eminem, Ice Cube, Wiley are my top 10 in no particular order. Could listen to these guys forever.
Big L completely washed jayz on a song though. Listen to they freestyle. Big L has too many classes lines in it. "I'm so ahead of my time my parents haven't met yet" is an example of 1.
"I'm so ahead of my time, my parents haven't met yet" RIP

That Big L freestyle cemented his place in history in my book.
Knicks33 I remember in a interview bad did he was talking about how there’s no way he could fuck with L nobody fucked with him
He killed Jay Z on that freestyle

Large Professor speaks so old school New York.. Hearing him speak takes me back to my childhood of early 90's hip hop
Word.
@@gaddisthegreat313 It's just a way of talking doesn't say anything about his age or intelligence. That's how they spoke then and it's stuck with him
I swear, it's so weird hearing him talk, remind me of these enter the 36 skits
Gaddis The Great he got his point across so even you could understand it lol, so
I swear

@@YakThaWiseman72 hell yeah. Casualties of a dice game is one the illest stories. Can't forget Ebonics
@@YakThaWiseman72 all 3 of those albums were crazy👑👑👑
Big L stole that line from Young Thug 🙄
@@dtowntexg oh damn, I didn't even know 😂😂🤔😒
Lifestylez ov da Poor & Dangerous is a classic.
One of my favourite albums of all time classic doesnt even give it justice 😎
AlmightyGamer dope album no doubt, but lots of satanic type references that make me uncomfortable when I listen to it still to this day.
@@pdigi3179 I agree.
if rap was a game i'd be MVP, the Most Valuablest Poet on the M.I.C, classic as well
P digi317 LOL
Big L wouldve been King Of NY
@The R. nah big L was truth go listen
@The R. gotta disagree, I feel big l would've smoked biggie if they went at it
Nah he was never better than Nas
No way.
Facts no doubt about it and he would've hanged with all the greats that stand today!
The way Large P speaks is the way I once imagined every dude from NYC spoke. Word is bond, kid!!
BigTone No doubt b
Word up
The real still speak like that
Yo Large Professor should be a regular guest he putting the smooth NY tone on subjects would be cool
crownmekingstacks facts
Extra P doesn't get nearly enough shine and he's one of the all time greats. he must have some crazy stories from those years.
Can yall imagine Vlad asking him a quewtion about 69 and LP be like " nah son is a wild rat word word in the q niggas would never get down like that word word " lol
Big L Top 5 All Time, been saying it since the 90s
Top 5 of the 90s he didnt make it outta there
He's not top 5 NY emcee.

MVP was my favorite song on L's 1st album. Love Both Versions but the album version more.
Yeah the album version is RAW
I think that's the first song that made me go listen to his first album some few months ago, and all I can say is that was one the best album I've ever heard if not the best
That track with big L featuring tupac is a gr8 track
Deadly Combination...I believe DJ Ron G produced it.
That track is fake
@@realitycheck1092 not fake ,, but Ron g had vocals of both
@@Notbadjattz It's still fake 2pac and Big L never met
@@ShiestyPLOWuTang still a gr8 track none the less
Producers are so slept on. No aCapella made it to #1 (that I'm aware of). Salute to the producers, they're as important as the vocalists.
That is what a lot of bitter lyricists don't understand no matter how dope you are lyrically if the music behind you isn't dope no one is gonna care
Yo, word, nah mean, Homie is New York to the core.
lmao at Vlad saying Lifestylez Of Da Poor & Dangerouz was just "cool". One of the greatest album debuts of that era of just quintessential, dark and rugged NY Boom Bap. not surprising coming from him, though.
90s nostalgia listening to Large Pro talk...
Word up
How Vlad loves to demonize Black men at 1:02 inserting his assumptions about Bobby Brown's drug use.
Dirty Laundry Media
Exactly. This dude uses black culture to make himself rich but prides himself on the downfall of the same people. Gotdamn brah. U got money. We get it. Enjoy. But fuck. What’s your issue?
Caught that immediately. P wasn't having it.
Exactly. Real talk.
but, bobby brown admitted to having a drug problem in the 90s tho. i mean dont get me wrong, fuck vlad but yeah
If you peep Vlad he does sucka shit like that all the time. Straight up blood sucker of the poor. Peace God.......
Large Pro is Hip Hop personified!! A dignified pillar of the REAL "culture" so many speak on these days w/o knowledge. Blessings to all
Big L was so dope. He definitely one of the greats. Rest in Power.

MalikEmmanuel are you Muslim?
Big Ls was always a beast and his verses on that freestyle with Jay Z were too cold man
KDoubleU Music fux wit Jay but big L slaughtered that shit
the fact that vlad doesnt appreciate lifestyles ov da poor and dangerous just proves his lack of hip hop knowledge
he prefers a unfinished album made up of old freestyles and questionable features.
He's a guest in the house of Hip Hop what do you expect...?
Sprinter ProductionsHD Yeah I peeped that too. How he gonna say that album is aight
I feel like the big picture was made to blow up, smoother flow, less punchlines and hardcore lyrics.
LOTPAD was underground, those dark beats, punchlines, hardcore style, its raw.
He just changed his style a bit, In my opinion he would blow up if he finished The Big Picture.
I was like wtf hearing vlad say that
RIP Big L. Dude was nice on the mic.
Big L was the only artist I had to rewind a couple of his records multiple times. Man was a demon on the mic.
"Reach my destination, grab the heat without no hesitation, these niggas fucking up my reputation". Hardest verse by Big L.
Big L could paint a picture with his words and was just an awesome story teller. Super raw.
Most people don't even know about Big L...don't even know what a legend he was on the mic
When it comes to beats n rhymes Large Pro is one of the greatest 2 way players in da game
If you want to know why Big L died, go watch Info Minds documentary on the 139th St. NFL Crew.
I'm gonna watch EVERY minute of that 1 hour and 2 min documentary! Thanks for the recommendation fam ✊🏽. I love hip hop history! Stuff I vaguely remember because I was YOUNG YOUNG during the Golden Era.

also check out "Donald Phinazee Part 1" as he explains it.
Yeah much respect to fat Joe and the professor but the whole he got killed cause they couldn't get his brother thing is disputed by some reputable of Harlem dudes
I heard he was killed because his brother owed people money. So they killed him for the debt.
Ask any REAL hip hop head, Big L was gifted through-and-through on the mic!
Big L was a beast, most valuable poetry on the m.i.c
R.I.P. Big L
The end made me go listen to T.R.O.Y.
My favorite rapper of all time.. Big L. Inspired me to rap when he said "I'm so ahead of my time my parents haven't met yet"
Large professor a good storyteller. We need more interviews
Big L was one of a kind man, R.I.P.
Big L would of changed the rap game for the better. RIP
