Big L & Nas - The Influence On Hip Hop

Big L and Nas both signed to columbia records in 1992. So people ask is there any connection between them? Well they may not have done an official song together, but there were signs that Nas had an influence on Big L.

I try and show some history for both of them, and some links between a few songs. And the influence they both had on hip hop.

If Big L didn't die, him and Nas probably would've made songs together.

@HitzR1 Ah well, People are entitled to their opinion stupid or not so I'm just gunna let it go and just be happy there is people who like the same kind of music as me and that's the bottom line at the end of the day

[HitzR1]

@JetLifeMovement Canibus' style killed his career. No flow and a voice people can't stand to listen to.

If you just admitted that no one would care if L helped Nas against Jay, then why would you say that they would've killed his career?

[JetLifeMovement]

@HitzR1 Agreed with the first part of what you said the world wouldn't have cared which is a shame cause it took for him to pass to get the dues paid with the mainstream hip-hop fans...The hip-hop artist themselves respected L for being one of the best...LL Cool J killed Canibus's career with 4,3,2,1 so it was career ending back then with certain artists I guess....But all that aside it was only an opinion. In the case of Nas Vs Jay they were already respected in hip-hop to end each other career

[HitzR1]

@JetLifeMovement Only Hip Hop heads knew who Big L was, the rest of the world wouldn't of cared if he dissed Jay(even though he wouldn't)

No battles weren't career enders back then. Jay vs Nas did happen and it wasn't too long ago.

Nas didn't kill Jay's career, even if L sided with Nas to diss Jay they wouldn't have killed his career.

[JetLifeMovement]

@HitzR1 Not a stupid opinion, cause in reality of things Big L was being signed to Roc-A-Fella so the beef wouldn't have happened, I was just saying that if Big L sided with Nas Jay's career would have been done cause back then battles were a career ender back then

[HitzR1]

@JetLifeMovement Stupid opinion.

Jay was bigger than L back then didn't matter if he was still alive.

[JetLifeMovement]

Jay wouldn't have no chance if Big L was still alive when the whole Nas Vs Jay-z beef....Big L would have killed Jay's career...Just my opinion

[InfamousAct]

@Palsharpton Nas is on a completley different level. His storytelling and lyricism is much better and he's deeper with more versatilty. but L had crazy punchlines
