  • im a rapper and i believe in myself im going for mine,,keep it oldschool even tho im mexican,,i respect hip hop, check my freestylign video at my channel aight then

  • I knew where he was from *** he even mentions the block in harlem! It really does irk me how dumb trey songz was for that! I love big l and i'll always consider him the best m.c! R.I.P to the greatest big l!

  • Whoa i really want to smack the person who said nicki minaj brought her here, fuck outta here im tired of new school disrespecting big l, if you think he's wack then you need to get killed and sacrificed, i rather big l be here today than these lame ass idiots. I cant stand trey songz for disrespecting big l, he had the nerve to say he's from bk then say r.i.p like obviously you never heard a big l track if you didnt know he's from harlem, first song i ever heard from big l i knew where he was

  • He said he should start sayin names of the fake mc's. If L was alive today he would tear apart young money. Rip big l. Rip hip hop.

  • Like Nas always says in his performances, " FUCK THE RADIO!"....hip hop is dead!

  • My bad i meant that he said some rappers dont even go gold but u guys get what im saying.

  • This song perfectly sums up not only rap music but probably music in general really. And when he said that there are really good rappers that don't even go platinum, for some reason it made me think of how I heard about how Nas's Illmatic only went platinum even after all these years. So many people, magazines, and even other rappers have said that it's the greatest rap album of all time or that it's one of the best. I guess that if it wasn't so over people's heads it'd be 1 or 2X diamond. sucks

  • What's Mc stand for, Fuck you if you give a shitty response i love L i've listened to him for years i know all there is to know bout his shit but Mc no one told me what the fuck it stands for so yeah somebody just tell me

  • Throw your L's up.

  • too fuckin good man wtf!!

  • 13 years ago today Big L passed. Rap in Peace.

  • @thepickens i'm gonna cry man i've seriously balled, All these fake mother fuckers now days it aint even resemble rap it's pop like club bullshit man fuck what shit's come to i really will never understand it all

  • See? Real MCs had to deal with the same shit back then, so stop complaining..

  • Im 18 and bumpin his shit everdince I was 14

  • yeah nigggaaaaaaz pprrruuuuuummm

  • I dont understand it... how many people can preffer New BULLSHIT school "hip-hop" (lmao) instead of this master piece... I DONT UNDERSTAND IT!

  • I DONT UNDERSTAND IT

  • wiz khalifa really isnt too bad but i still love Big L and i loved this album when i first found it in like '01 to be honest

  • beat sounds like cypress hill

  • y do all these fuckin people (sheep) nowadays, listen to the shittiest mainstream bullshit, when u got this right under your fuckin doorstep? i dont understand it

  • Love from the uk

  • 30% oldschool brothas left in u,s,a

  • i still be dressing all oleschool just like big l and im mxican and be dressing like a cholo too slick back and hair and sometimes with a hat sideways and people be lke wear skinny jeans,, im like naaaaah im one of the 30% left in the u.s.a seriously look aroubnd u whole skoool and see all the new school mothafukas and if you see oldschool brothas then be proud

  • rap these days? i dont understand it...

  • Sell outs and fakers are going platinum while real emcees usually don't even go gold. So true Big L.

  • @uwishyobfwazme its cause women are fucking stupid.. they are about money and they are the reason hip hop has died, money hungry bitches.. big L knows rofl..

  • If L didn't understand it then, he'd be mindfucked nowadays XD

  • @uwishyobfwazme for real i dnt understand it

  • I understand that Big L is better than every other rapper alive, but dont underrate Wayne's ability the other day i heard Fly In Fly Out one of the sickest songs ive ever heard imo. Lil Wayne is a sellout just like Kanye and Jay-Z. When you listen to Wayne's old shit you'll understand that he is actually a genius

  • 3 muthafukas have no soul... i dont understand it. fuck all new rappers now matter how good they are they will never be better than L. nobody should ever put Big L and Lil wayne in the sentence eventhough i just did.. ALL HAIL OLD SCHOOL HIP HOP!!!!!!!

  • Method Man said it perfect when he was talking about there not being real MC's out today. he said " back when i was growing up when someone told you they were an MC everyone said "aight lets here you spit something" today when someone says there an MC, everyone goes, "well wheres your whip? wheres your chain?" point is that people rapping today are in it for the cash and not for the love of the game, and thats the main reason this genre has gone downhill, that and the rich white man hahaha

  • @TheBubblegumCheese PREACH IT!!!

  • @TheBubblegumCheese your completely but there are a lot of white boys that got mad clever lyrics and decent flow...like mac miller (no) mgk decent and asher rother is good eminem back in the day was a g

  • @TheBubblegumCheese thank you bro you

    just took the words rite out my mind

    the game well u can't even call it a rap game anymore!

  • @TheBubblegumCheese yessss! i rewmember when he said it when he was on that tattoo show. i saw i too!! soooooooooooo true! i ALWAYS use that example too

  • Comment removed

  • @uwishyobfwazme same here but i have to wear school uniform everyone in my scholl thinks lil wayne and drake is real hip-hop fucking shit generation i live in i wish i was a teen in the 90's best music ever

  • @XxDeathGlock231xX Nah he was cool with Nas and this album dropped in '95 when Nas's only album was illmatic (It Was Written dropped in '96) and Nas didn't even get recognition with illmatic until it was written dropped. I'm pretty sure L didn't have a problem with Illmatic. Maybe it was Written (a huge maybe) but not Illmatic.

  • thumbs up if nicki minaj made you come to this video

  • R.I.P Big L flamboyant records 4 life also R.I.P to guru heavy d pimp c seagram biggie tupac nate dogg eazy e big pun dj screw

  • very real track!!! so tru!!!

  • big l's verse on "8 is enuff" is good as fuck

  • stop talking about lil wayne...hoollyy 

  • This song should mainly be dedicated to Lil Wayne and the new Fat Joe.

  • Big L ..Gets down...

  • Seems he predicted dre's, snoop's, jay and cube's future.

  • There is something desperatly wrong with the world wen a mc like this only has that many views

  • The hook should be sampled

  • @BinaryStarofShaolin you feel me!

  • we should send this to the fonies

  • Big l was a rapper and a prophet lol

  • God damn he fucks this track up.

  • All he is saying is life's not fair!

  • i guess three people understand it. fuck em

  • Big L was ahead of his time.

  • com'on stop picking on Lil wayne only... PICK ON ALL THE COMMERCIAL RAPPERS!!!!!!! rick ross that fat fuck

  • If he didnt understand it then, he's turning in his grave now.

  • 3 people are lil b fans

  • 3 people are complete lil wayne stans

  • big l looked into future for inspiration for this song

  • Comment removed

  • i think i know why big l died he had a dream about ymcmb

  • Fuck commercial rap.

  • who else stopped bobbin their heads or keeping rhythem 3;19-3;21?

  • i fuckin hate goin to fuckin school man... all they do is ask me why i still wear baggy jeans and shit and always quote wack ass fuckin wayne and drake lines and shit.... and they say fuck Big L cuz they never hared of him and say wiz kalifa smashes Big L, Mobb Deep, Nas, Eminem, KRS-One and shit man..... i wish they would acttualy sit dow and read the lyrics from those wack fucks and acttualy realize how fuckin wack they are....

  • @uwishyobfwazme DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THAT.....REAL TALK....PEOPLE DONT KNOW WHAT REAL MUSIC IS THESE DAYS.....PISSSES ME RIGHT OFF!!!!!!! atleast we havent been brainwashed by the media......we see the way....hiphop forever!

  • @MrLyricalBones foreal fuck the radio the music awards and every young money fan theres only like one alright newish rapper comeing up Hopsin i dont even know anymore i miss sayin "that new track from ___ was dope" i haven't said that in a LONG time

  • @uwishyobfwazme i qouted that to my friends so true man

  • @uwishyobfwazme thats fucked kids like that get fed all the bullshit rap nowadays and they think they're better than the og's in the rap game, but for people to say wiz is better than KRS-One get the fuck out of here i want some of the drugs they're taking

  • @uwishyobfwazme i understand exactly how u feel homie

  • @uwishyobfwazme seems pretty wack, man.

  • @uwishyobfwazme wow you got to be kidding me are you serious? they don't know shit about hip-hop.

  • @uwishyobfwazme The lyrics in this track say it all, tbh...

  • @uwishyobfwazme And anyway; Jay Z was Big L's good friend and stole fuckin everything from him when he died, and look where that fuckin idiot is today... makes me sick.

  • @uwishyobfwazme im 14 i feel that shit, Word up homie, btw if anyone can check my shit out it would really help me out real hip hop real lyrics

    

  • @KidKapamTv i respect what your doin bro

  • the Carter 4 and also made a song with Chris brown and he's still known as one of the greatest, same goes with Em. And Em didn't sell out, he just hasn't been slim shady lately since his best friend proof died so show him some respect

  • @Aerosol95 True

  • Man I think Big L should be above Biggie cus honestly and with all due respect, I love Biggie but he wasn't the fuckin lyrical beast if you ask me. Ppl gain more praise after they die but if he were alive, he'd be just another rapper. Oh yeah and ppl need to stop talkin shit about Em, since Em has came out from his drug addiction, he's only had a few songs on the radio and just cus u make a song with a singer it doesn't make u a sell out. I mean Nas made a song with Lauryn Hill and appeared on

  • @Aerosol95 I agree but the difference is Lauryn Hill is an mc and hip-hop royalty not just a singer but I still fucks with rihanna and Em never sold out, selling out is when you change you style and roots for money Eminem didn't do that he's a frickin' millionaire they just want the old Slim Shady who is mostly violent they're stupid if you ask me he's still lyrically better then all these gay ass mainstream crappers

  • @Aerosol95

    Yeahhh but Nas changed the rap game with Illmatic and his style of rapping his extended vocabulary and shit. What has Eminem done? Where's his Illmatic album at? His style? Yeahh bitch that's what I thought & I bet 5 bucks you're gonna say "he raps about his life, raps about his daughter and shit." Foo shut the fuck up

  • @flavjuniorgrill dont hate on em hes alright. waynes where your should be aimed at.

  • @atif07an08

    I ain't hating on nuttin. I'm stating facts. That all you muthafuckaz don't wanna accept them thats not my problem

  • @flavjuniorgrill ok gangsta calm the fuk down.

    i never read your first comment so i dont know what the fuck your on about.

  • rappers who stay real after blowing publicly/worldwide without selling their souls die/ get killed

  • this whole song is a report on what rap has become today....bunch of emotional rappers with no real talent..*cough* Drake...

  • I enjoy the works of Large Lemont. One of my favourite songs include place it on you and "allow them to have it, Lemont".

  • This whole song made me think of Lil Wayne

  • Big L was a time traveler.

  • LOL so everyone can know, the reason MCs are overated is cuz people simply have never heard anyhting better

  • only new shit worth listening to is underground.

    Reef The Lost Cauze

    Epidemic

  • big l would shit bricks if he saw the rappers out today. lil wayne? soulja boy? gucci mane? nicki minaj? even sad to say but eminem? this song is more relevant now than ever

  • @BWKsoccer06 what about snoop and dre

  • Comment removed

  • I believe L was talking about big Daddy Kane in this song.A-lot of rappers took subliminal jabs at big Daddy kane cause he had changed his style up to some r and b love song shit.

  • @barlog20 this song was like 97 big daddy stopped being on the scene in like 93 bro

  • @markjw206 No,this song came out in 1995,i bought the album shortly after it came out.And Big daddy kane came out with an Album in 1994;he dropped singles such as "in the pjs" and "show and move".Big Daddy Kane was trying to get back to his hardcore style he abandoned in favor of R and B but it was too late.

  • @barlog20 u bugin he looked up to big daddy kane

  • @LEZTHEGOON I`m talking about the part when Big l said:"Mc’s – what’s goin on? I don’t understand, man, how rappers cold transform One minute you’re hardcore and raw That’s what you was known for, but not no more You changed, you rearranged You’re not the same, your raps are blame That explain why you lost your fame Used to be on top, then you fell like rain drops You turned pop, now you you no longer gain props" that might have been a jab at Big Daddy Kane and others.

  • Songs like I don't understand it and What they do-The Roots

    really show how far rap has fallen

  • 0:52 made me think of lil wayne

  • @BkLyNsK8r23 LMAO, I think of dude as well every time I hear that line.

  • @BkLyNsK8r23 dont forget the childhood actor drake the fake..

  • @BkLyNsK8r23 You are fuckin retarded. You must be referring to wacka flocka. Not the great Wayne!

  • @candiegurlharris i totally agree with you but sometimes when they do a song feat a good rapper its kind of funny like jay rock - all my life (maybe not your taste but i like the song) when lil wayne comes its like the song preparing you for the better part of the song :P

  • it's like he knew how the future was going to be like. i don't understand it

  • Word to your momz....

  • "there are too many mc's who are over-rated ya aks me, wayne wasnt even supposed to make it"

  • We gotta bring real music back hella bad i wanna listing to BIG L instead of lil wayne fuck the radio

  • @ILuV2LiGhtAdUtchii3 Wow dat nigga bugging and you live in new jersey cuz the 732 i do 222222 ha

  • In other words, there have always been 'fake' motherfuckers since the beginning

  • i'm starting to think this track was ment for fat joe

  • This kid fucking said Big L suckss ... call him and tell him fuck you. 732 616 4005 this kids a straight bitch

  • how does soulja boys shit have millions of views and this sick track only has 44k.... I dont understand it

  • @Riotcamp yea it is about diddy 

  • whats up with comparing Tyler with Big L? they have completely different styles dumbasses shit the comment bar was the worse thing youtube ever added

  • He would shit himself is he saw the rappers today!

  • @CobainFan9 lol he'd get diarrhea...these so called "rappers" today are jokes..but hey they makin money so they "da shit"...smhhhh..disgrace

  • fuck new school and anyone that likes that shit

  • @CABJ341255 People only like it because they pay more attention to the beats then the lyrics, you gotta admit the beats are hypnotizing and distract you from the lyrics sometimes when you listen to those songs

  • @CABJ341255 The Old School Is Badass but you cant really say ALL new school aint good. Listen to J- Cole Thatl Change ur mind.

  • @HipHop1995CB nah shut up pussy

  • @HipHop1995CB only good thats out now is bone thugs but wait they was old skool and remained to keep there style instead of followin' whats hot but made there shit hot but the world dont know of them hmm the media just beat these ppl since all the realist died in the 90's for ppl to know there styles

  • @CABJ341255 ??? Have you listened to anyone in the new school rap game? Kendrick Lamar, Left Brain? You're an idiot

  • @CalRyanProductions Nigga Fuck You.

  • @WESTCOAST253 Reasonable Doubt was a good album but god damn he sold out.

  • Am I the only one FEMINEM hater here? L over any fucking faggot on mtv or some shit.

  • @villemoilol Eminem really sucks i'm glad someone agrees

  • I'm more of a rock/metal guy but Big L shits on these pop candy pussy rappers of today.

    RIP

  • @BlackPhoenix623 same here got metal head here and i love this shit. he puts it out how it straight up is

  • "im so ahead of my time, my parents haven't met yet" there is a lot of songs to prove that quote, but none more than this song. BIG L REST IN PEACE!!

  • "Never Try To Look Or Sound Like Another Rapper"

    Nicki Minaj Done The Complete Opposite Taking Kims Style

  • @Seesam1234 HE IS UNDER RATED BECAUSE PEOPLE DON'T WANT TO HEAR TRUTH, THEY DON'T WANT TO HEAR HARDCORE, ROUGH RHYMES, THEY WANT TO HEAR MINDLESS AUTO TUNED HOOKS ABOUT MONEY THEY WILL NEVER HAVE, AND HOW GREAT LIVES OTHER THAN THEIR OWN ARE. THEY DON'T WANT TO THINK ABOUT CLEVER PUNCHLINES AND METAPHORS BECAUSE THE PUBLIC IS STUPID AS SHIT AND WOULD RATHER LISTEN TO COMMERCIAL BULLSHIT WITH HOT BEATS. THEY DON'T WANT TO THINK AND THE RAPPERS SAY FUCK IT, WE WON'T EITHER, IT WILL SELL NEWAY
