    Lyrics:
    Aiyyo, you betta flee Hobbes, or get your head flown three blocks
    L keep rapper's hearts pumpin like Reeboks
    And every year I gain clout and my name sprouts
    Some brothers'd still be large if the crack never came out
    I got the wild style, always been a foul child
    My guns go poom-poom, and yo' guns go pow-pow
    I'm known to have a hottie open, I keep the shottie smokin
    Front and get half the bones in your body broken
    And when it comes to gettin nookie I'm not a rookie
    I got girls that make that chick Toni Braxton look like Whoopie
    I run with sturdy clicks I'm never hittin dirty chicks
    Got thirty-five bodies, buddy don't make it thirty-six
    Step to this you're good as gone, word is bond
    I leave mics torn when I put it on
    So put it on Big L, put it on
    C'mon put it onnn, and onnn, and onnn
    C'mon put it on Big L, put it on
    C'mon put it on represent put it on, C'MON!

      Way better then Jay-Z on the 89.9 freestyle and demolished Camron on the 8 is enough track lol. He would’ve been a real legend if he lived long enough to drop 10 albums plus. NY rap went to shit after L, Biggie, ODB died. Hip hop in general with Pac. Imagine that’s about 50 albums we could’ve had with them all if they was still alive maybe 60 with Pac lol

      In a 2010 interview with Donald Phinazee, Big L's brother commented on what led up to the death of Big L:
      There was something that went down with a dude out here with my middle brother, "Big Lee" (Leroy Phinazee), and, uh, Lee went upstate for five years. [...] It was a little problem like I just said, "divide and conqueror" with the fellas between all of us, and, uh, [Lee] went upstate, then I went upstate, and then [Lee] sent word to do something [to someone]. He sent word to somebody else to do something, but Lamont went with him, which Lamont shouldn't have went with him. [...] It didn't go down the way it was supposed to have went down and they seen Lamont face. [...] So, uh, both of us is gone, and [Lamont] was out here by hisself. And so you can't get one brother, you get the other one. That's it in a nutshell.

      I agree. I consider him a “hidden gem” of 90’s rap among most fans at least. Not too many people know about him sadly in the making stream. He is always going to remain a huge what if in hip-hop. Who knows how big he could have become/would’ve become. He is appreciated by many though and thus he will not be forgotten. A hip-hop and rap legend among the best!

As long as cats like Black Thought, Kxng Crooked, Joyner Lucas and Eminem and a few others are around, there will be skilled cats in the game, just don't expect them to sell (well, except Eminem of course)... And let's not forget the man himself, Big L, he didn't even reach the level of fame He deserved until after he died, very few people had even heard of him outside of underground hip hop communities.

I think he rhymes and flows better then Nas. Big L is the reason I'm interested in rap today! But Big L just died too soon. He didn't even get time to publish his second album.

      ***** I don't need to pretend to be a gangster to feel accomplished with my life nor do I need to be a pretentious 30 something year old wannabe thug failure in order to have an opinion about a song that happens to be from the 90s.
