"I record my battles on a camcorder, so I can sit back watch me manslaughter" and "a lot of rappers talk that murder shit, but couldn't kill time" have to be some of the best bars ever created
@@puffin_loud7562 most say Big Ls older brother ‘Big Lee’ was in prison at the time when he got into some bad beef with the wrong people & because they couldn’t get to him, they got L instead 😔
Yeah this is that late 80s rap style, but this still sounds so dope in 2017. I wished more rappers still rapped like this. Reminds me of Nas' verse on "Live From The BBQ"
+Zay CloutUpp hell no. RIP to prodigy, but prodigy got smoked by kool G rap on his own album. look up "the realest - Mobb deep Ft. Kool G rap" kool G rap has one of the best verse ever on that song.
I love the production of big l chooses man is dope man buckwild Lord finesse DJ premier showbiz be working with big l that's beyond dope way better than some generic ass trap beats aka fruity loops that everyone is doing nowadays sadly.
17 years later and he's still technically "principal of the new school" but on a real note wonder who he was talking about back then since then was the realest hip hip times.. anyone know?
I agree 90s hip-hop and some early 2000s will and always will be the peak of lyrical talent. I don't even really follow rap anymore because it's all 95% trash. but I still listen to all my classics.
+Jay B listen to lifestyles of poor and dangerous, the song not the album. he starts with his normal voice, which sounds slowed down compared to his normal higher pitch rap voice he goes into
Damn my nigga L went none stop from beginning to end with punch lines should definitely be every ones top 5 this my fave rapper of all times I quote "my favorite rapper of all times"
I got the gift of gab To lift and grab The mic And recite hype rhymes That’ll rip and rag And drag A fag MC Who likes to nag a lot And brag a lot Talkin’ about the lyrics that he have are hot Step to this and get lit like a candle troop Rhymes I hook up, MCs I cook up Like Campbell’s Soup I throw rhymes like a quarterback Front and you’ll get bust an’ dust and crushed Bum rushed and all of that Rhymes never sound whack ‘Cause I got ‘em down pat Your rulin’ time is over So gimme your crown jack I get hype fast And MCs might last A minute with me Because their rhymes are light as A feather And mines are heavy like a big brick Rappers catch a fit quick When I start to kick shit And I record my battles on a camcorder So I can sit back and watch me manslaughter MCs that tried to get wit’ me hops That’s why they all got tooken out like a Bensi box The crown is still mine ‘cause I kick ill rhymes A lotta rappers talk that murder shit and couldn’t kill time Or beat eggs or whip cream I’m smoother than Vaseline And I’m a stone cold rappin’ fiend A lot of new jacks are comin’ out, but that’s cool ‘Cause I’m the principal of the new school
Principal did wrong and got shot. But all graduates alive respectfuly admit: there is no new or old school. theres good school like this and some shit for chickenheads. Thank you principal L
you can hear the big daddy kane flow amd rhyme scheme. when L heard lord finesse and infused that into this style it created the L we come to know and love.
"I record my battles on a camcorder, so I can sit back watch me manslaughter" and "a lot of rappers talk that murder shit, but couldn't kill time" have to be some of the best bars ever created

@Ivan xDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Floath
You can't get past me, even if your homeboy set a pick
Hard line right there!!!!
Man, it really sucks that Big L died. Killed for something he was no part in smh. He was and still is the best rapper in my heart.
In mine too b
Same fucking here !!!
Imagine the songs that could have done
What rivalry battles what have sounded like
So true then his brother got out of jail and asked about his brother then got shot as well! Sucks we lost a rapper with much talent and skillz.
@@puffin_loud7562 most say Big Ls older brother ‘Big Lee’ was in prison at the time when he got into some bad beef with the wrong people & because they couldn’t get to him, they got L instead 😔
@@lvzofficial that’s what I said big lee got out of jail then got shot also. Lamont was shot because he was riding for his brother
My Jesus!!!!!! This was before L was set in stone with his signature flow but GOT DAMN he tore this shit up....
that B.D.K. style he using
big daddy kane
Yeah this is that late 80s rap style, but this still sounds so dope in 2017. I wished more rappers still rapped like this. Reminds me of Nas' verse on "Live From The BBQ"

L's 80s flow :0
lyfe1zruff he was 17, daamaamn
+lyfe 1zruff still had that 80s flow on this though. smooth
Nah. That's early 1990's. No one rapped like that in the 1980's, not even Big Daddy Kane.
Shaun Cameron Rakim
@@shauncameron8390 this is exactly a Big daddy kane flow though
it doesn't get any better than this. big L was and still is the best spitter ever , fuck the rest

CANDYforyourmind is this big l? doesnt sound like him
***** nah i mean his voice doesnt sound the same
+Jay B listen to lifestyles of poor and dangerous, the song not the album. he starts with his normal voice, which sounds slowed down compared to his normal higher pitch rap voice he goes into
MetalTeacher115 Not all of the new school ones are garbage.
Love this kinda beat
Ik right
Reminds me of a Rakim track, this isn't like his other shit I'v heard. It's a lot cleaner and has that old school funk
Rakim influenced big L so i guess thats why
@@havoc1426 also lord finesse.
@@havoc1426 also kane
Straight fkn Banger..
Been hearing this jam for Years Kid
that beat is illl
Masterpiece 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Damn i love all big l beats they Got that own big l steet vibe
I hear Guru influence all in this 💪🏾 R.I.P
Nope, it's Big Daddy Kane the man who L was influenced by.
Fat Joke Is wack
Big L = Major Lyricist 💯💯💯💯💯💯
Damn my nigga L went none stop from beginning to end with punch lines should definitely be every ones top 5 this my fave rapper of all times I quote "my favorite rapper of all times"
he's my number 1 favorite rapper best punch lines ever.
Good Song!!!!!
I got the gift of gab
To lift and grab
The mic
And recite hype rhymes
That’ll rip and rag
And drag
A fag MC
Who likes to nag a lot
And brag a lot
Talkin’ about the lyrics that he have are hot
Step to this and get lit like a candle troop
Rhymes I hook up, MCs I cook up
Like Campbell’s Soup
I throw rhymes like a quarterback
Front and you’ll get bust an’ dust and crushed
Bum rushed and all of that
Rhymes never sound whack
‘Cause I got ‘em down pat
Your rulin’ time is over
So gimme your crown jack
I get hype fast
And MCs might last
A minute with me
Because their rhymes are light as
A feather
And mines are heavy like a big brick
Rappers catch a fit quick
When I start to kick shit
And I record my battles on a camcorder
So I can sit back and watch me manslaughter
MCs that tried to get wit’ me hops
That’s why they all got tooken out like a Bensi box
The crown is still mine ‘cause I kick ill rhymes
A lotta rappers talk that murder shit and couldn’t kill time
Or beat eggs or whip cream
I’m smoother than Vaseline
And I’m a stone cold rappin’ fiend
A lot of new jacks are comin’ out, but that’s cool
‘Cause I’m the principal of the new school
Too Def 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
before L developed his signature style
Great track
Huge big daddy Kane and lord finesse influence
...'cause I'm not a man that be step to
I won't let you, ruin my repu...tation
across the whole nation
rappers that be basin' I'm choppin' like Jason
I don't give a fuck if I'm 17 lol. Big L dope asf.
Schoolzy l Same
Lmao L was 17 when he made this
close your eyes and picture 91 Vanilla Ice rapping this😂 literally Eminem
this is fucking rad
Real hip hop
I think this is from like 1990 or 1991 not 80s
1990
This is 1990 when he didn't sign yet
MinM I thought this was from 1991
Anarchy Acres maybe I don't know correctly
1991 at the earliest.
A better version of BDK. Yeah I said it.
@UCPBandrew Yeah homie, tho i would say BDK has a faster flow
Thats dope, it sounds like big l lyrics and flow, but his voice sounds kinda different
bryan h other way around fool
Harlem king
La gran puta crema!!
God

This song gives me Lord Finesse vibes but this shit still 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
"Front on me, you'll be history like last week
Cuz rappers be frontin hard and booty like ass cheeks"
Lmfao this man, a legend gone too soon
