DJ Shinobi [RA] · 02-03-2007, 10:39 AM

Put it on, Big L, put it on!

I disagree a bit...The street themes were what was real to his life...and it wasn't that conistent. Here's a quote from the title track:

"My moms told me to get a job, fuck that
Aiyo, picture me gettin a job
Takin orders from Bob, sellin corn on the cob"

That's pretty wack. I'd give the CD a 4.5

Not every track was heat, or even every single verse.but overall it was dope as fuck and easily my favorite album of all time. You can disagree, but this album was before your time. This album shaped the modren underground hip hop scene as I said in my review.

H.O.V.A. · 02-03-2007, 01:10 PM

Before my time? Watchu mean....

And I agree it's a dope album, but to be the GOAT I feel it should be flawless.

Well, correct me if I'm wrong, but were you bumping this the very same year it came out? I was, if you weren't and you just started bumping it a few years ago, then this album is before your time. and I'm not saying Big L is the GOAT, but he is my favorite emcee, maybe not the best, but def my favorite.

H.O.V.A. · 02-03-2007, 01:48 PM

You said it was the best album ever. And I am 15, so I was hardly bumping anything when it came out.

Word. It is my favorite album, and in my opinion one of the best. Doesn't mean that I think that Big L is the GOAT. And yeah, you're 15, pshh, this album is before your time. I was bumpin' this shit the year it came out, it has been my favorite album since 1995.

Just because I was young at the time doesn't mean I don't get it now.

True, but when it was out, there was nothing else out like it. Now-a-days there's tons of shit copyin' L's style and people might hear this and say shit like oh he comes weak on alot of shit and name some other fool and say that they're better, when in reality, they stole L's style. Just makin' a point that you can't really form a true honest opinion unless you've heard it from the start, back when no one else was doin' shit like it. Back when it was original. Because you can't improve on the original.

H.O.V.A. · 02-04-2007, 12:27 PM

True. I do agree that this shit is dope.

akj689 · 02-04-2007, 12:43 PM

Great album...nice review

Just_Blaze · 02-13-2007, 08:19 PM

Overrated to me... I like Big L though

THA WEATHA MAN · 06-07-2007, 11:15 PM

That album is dope good review. Big L is def one of the greatest mcs, hes second in my book Pac is 1

Shyne · 06-08-2007, 05:14 PM

little late but no way this is a 5/5. its a solid album but a 4/5 at best. L gets overrated like crazy

B Dope · 06-08-2007, 06:01 PM

i like the album a lot...production was inconsistant...too one sided on subject matter but it was dope....the only thing i really disagree is you callin big l the punchline king....Vakill has better punches easily..

Jei? Ayo, maybe I'm buggin' but I think I know youse. U Jei, or I am just trippin'.

And Shyne get off my balls, fuck a emo ass Cage. You're into that whack wrist cutting "I'm too fat, people don't like me, I want to die" type nerdy emo ******* rap. You wouldn't understand good hip-hop if it raped you.

And to the new jack with the Va comment....shut the fuck up and fall on a knife. Va is nice as fuck, but also overrated. His shit is clever, but in a more conscious way, L spits the dope, quick punchline that you get right away without having to think about it and he makes the shit you can bump in ya ride. Va on the other hand makes the more intellectual punchline that you bump when you're just chillin' alone, you can't bump that with your homeboys or in ya car without lookin' nerdy.

and hip hop a black culture

hip hop was helped made famous by the Beastie Boys which are white..Eminem is one of greatest rappers ever, he's white..and wtf, since when does knowledge of lyrics have any thing to do with ya skin color? I've never seen someone dickrider a rapper as hard as you....You blow the 50 and game stans out of the water
