+setondriveable Nah, If you know L, he would always drop heat unexpectedly. Every time you would think to count him out (Walking With A Panther LP, 2nd Round Knockout, 14 Shots to The Dome LP, etc), he'd drop something to remind you that he got his ear to the streets (The Ripper Returns, GOAT Intro, Da Break of Dawn, Illegal Search, Jingling Baby, I Shot Ya, Rasta Imposter, Flava in Ya Ear remix verse, etc) & he hears what we saying about him. So real heads weren't shocked, but moreso anticipating "the when" will he drop some hardcore fire.
Ll the best hands down...crazy how ANY sells him short...Big was nice...but the swag..longevity..platinum albums..acting...battle rapper..spit for the ladies..Didn't sell out the hood selling drugs......the title goes to JAMES SMITH!!!!!!
When Hip-hop/Rap Music was Head knoddimg and Bodymoving fun! O.M.G! Memories of me 18 years old/(1998) inside of the Funk Flex Sunday Nights at The Tunnel! The Unisex Bathroom on the second level would have made the Playboy mansion look like a Clubhouse! Best Of Times! 1990s Hip-hop/Rap will always be in an absolute music class all by itself! LLCoolJ has been doing it since 19HowLong! Forever respect!

Dis came out around end 1999,early 2000,i use to have this tape in my waalkman, i kept playing this over ,and over,while I was selling abt 70 dimes a day 18 years old,memory"s
I've been wanting to rap off this beat since the first time I've heard it, and I first purchased this cd the week it originally dropped🤯 That's how long I've been wanting to spit on that beat. But I didn't do it because of the respect I have for L.L. n Flex.
Bruh!!!!! I struggled to find the title of this song.... Found this by humming it into Google search.....this just bridged the gap from my teen years to now so many memories.
One of the hardest songs LL ever put out. This is a banger for real.

Big became an icon in 5 to 6 years, not taking anything from LL but people should stop comparing BIg to other rappers. His legacy is it's own thing
Classic LL cracks. One of the best songs ever.
