Let’s not even front like Big L wasn’t one of the nicest to ever touch the mic.
Actually, if you’ve ever heard him spit you’d probably struggle to name two cats nicer than dude. Born Lamont Coleman in Harlem back in 74, L prematurely lost his life in the same streets he was raised in.
Unlike some of these pretenders out here, the Harlem MC had real swag, vicious lines and a storytelling ability that would leave your tongue hanging out.
February 2009 marks the decade of this great MC’s death. Stayed tuned to HYPE for more legendz who will never be forgotten!
