Big L - How Will i Make it

[Slamwoo93]

Life ain't no joke, I know it. But you can't come here and say that you're poor as fuck and you have internet connection. I survived a war as a baby, but I appreciate the life that I have, not trying to make a sad story out of it. Be real people. Great song, R.I.P. Lamont 'Big L' Coleman.

Beat Em' Wid Uh Pillow Case Filt Wit Cans Of Tuna Fish.... Dammm Big L Speaks Tha Truth R.I.P The Best FreeStyle Rapper Alive .

[oldgee1976]

Damn man I remember It was a nice day and me and my homie was playing music on his 1200s and he got a phonecall telling him that BIG L got killed, we were hurt cause he was so talented and he had just got a deal. He put Killa Cam on, He also put Pastor Mase on (when his name was Murder Mase) and Mc Gruff on his album, On his debut album he has a song called Danger Zone where he says West 139th is the Danger Zone and Sad thing is he got killed on 139th and even sadder his brother died there 2.

[ZZTT92]

This shit is straight up G. This is his like life song cause he didnt make it out Harlem. RIP Big L

[bcchronicking]

@ZZTT92 thats the situation of life, there are some who are born with a silver spoon in their mouth with no problems and they somehow "develope" problems and thats why we have emos etc

then theres some of us who were raised with problems too young to understand them and never get a break life continuesly is rough and when things slow down a bigger more significant issue reveals its self

with different environments the results differ some gain strength from these some never make it to the next

[bcchronicking]

@ZZTT92 which was the scenario of big L some struggles are bigger than others some you just dont walk away from especially in the USA where a gun is never out of reach, not even to a 12 year old kid given time he may have decided to leave harlem eliminating the possibility that he could get popped which a lot of rappers did but im glad he didnt because money is what makes a man act funny and without the struggle and without the environment he wouldnt be the same rapper he was R.I.P L

[BurningTirez]

real shit.

[cbappa1]

00:01-3:59 is the best part

[YoungMalcomX1]

@cbappa1 lol

[FA1NT3D420]

only goes to 3.58 ahahahah @cbappa1

[tnevz764]

this song is real underated. its just big l no crazy beat or autotune girls singin and how will i make i won t that how

[bcchronicking]

@tnevz764 i donno id say this is a pretty unique beat because as it goes from the struggles of growing up it goes a bit deeper and the beat goes a bit darker symbolising how the situation changed I think this is a pretty crazy beat definately a lot of thought went  into this song and the beat stuck in my head not the middle part where it changes but the beggining is definately catchy enough

[binhthanhvo]

I wish Big L made more political/conscious songs like this. He was fire. RIP.

[sOeL1Er]

word up rest in peace big L,feels good to escape todays hiphop into some realshit like this,its about money now not talent and hunger for the game

[SpliffStar2006]

dis was somethin from da heart. cant no nigga in da industry spit somethin this real. R.I.P. to da homie L.
