What's Your Favorite Big L Song ?

[dad]

first off , Rest In Peace Big L ! My favorite song by him is How Will I Make It , i can relate to this song . And you also hear how his father was never in his life , yet his father is trying to get his royalties . SMH .

[Sizzy Up]

my favorite Big L song is street struck and the last one on the lifestyles of the poor and dangerous . the one where he says , "everybody want to be like mike , but mike want to be like L .


too great . it hurts me . i hope i get to meet him . i want to go to Harlem , so i can see where he was from . im a mase fan too , so along with Amsterdam , i want to go to Harlem .

[dad]

yeah , Street Struck is ill as fuck ! Big L got killed on the same block he shot the album cover for Lifestylez ov Da Poor & Dangerous . Sad man , very sad .

[theDZA]

hard to pick one!!!! he has soooo many good songs

but i would probably have to say either Put it on or Da Graveyard

n yeah apparently his dad that was never around is getting his royalties

thus there will never be another Big L album

[dad]

Fuck man , that's bullshit , that his dad can come out of nowhere and do that ! Hopefully his dad dies . LMAO

yeah Big L really is a tragic figure because of this and the whole street struck track and all. very sad!

i cant choose 1 track though!

it's hard as fuck to pick one single song that is his absolute best, but the nr. 1 song that probably represent L and how great he was is "EBONICS". i was banging that shit every day when it first dropped around 2000 and it's still blows my mind when i hear it.

I'm gonna have to go with Put It On like other people said, that's a defining song for him as far as personality and lyrical ability, like other legendary MC's debut singles. It's one of my favorite Buckwild beats too.

There's a couple new Big L projects coming out on vinyl if you want to purchase online as collectors items. The limited edition demo recordings from the early 90's presented by Showbiz and a vinyl re-issue of Lifestylez Ov Da Poor And Dangerous which includes a poster. Check my sig for a link to more details on those projects and how to purchase.

[Frank Drebin]

I'll be putting in my pre order for the "Gorilla In A Phonebooth" limited vinyl later this week.

Seen the re-issue of "Lifestyles"... the other day had no cash to pick it up at the time though.

[djskillz]

My favorite might be The Enemy. Or Casualties of a Dice Game.

[Everymanornoman]

shit, can't pick only one. i love each track from Lifestyle album equally.

[CHRONZ]

i would have to agree with peepz in here. it's fucking hard to point out a single joint thats better than the rest.
but i have come to the conclusion that it has to be one of these three -

No Endz, No Skinz.
Street Struck.
Fed Up Wit The Bullshit.


Rest in peace Lamont Coleman Aka Big L
