Lyrically Big L is one of the best. But sadly he was too much in the streets and caught up in street nonsense with his brother that stalled his career and lost his life. Even the reason behind his shootting was allegedly just a retaliation from someone he robbed. Since then I figured Big L was telling the truth in his lyrics how he's "quick to twist your cap back for a fat stack". This Ma$e story confirms what i already thought. RIP BIG L. one of the best to do it. 🙏 🕊

Yeah, that's exactly what I thought as well.

To me, there was always this undertone that Big L was simply playing an exaggerated character, but was actually a pretty chill guy in real life. It's disappointing to learn that he really was a rather grimy individual. And it's not just this interview; recent revelations in general (like that NFL crew documentary) also corroborate that Big L was just a shady person.

Mase was the number one Rapper in the world 97/98 people forget that is a fact

[@AnubisConstantine]

@@russellcarter8709 & people forget what hip hop was sounding like in 97/98. It didn’t get back to street & grimey till dmx blew. a lot of people wasn’t around & don’t listen to hip hop to understand

This the best breakdown on this topic. Great comment

[@jtonxbox1433]

Nah that was personal. mase wasnt breakin bread with alot guys who helped him up.

[@AnubisConstantine]

@@jtonxbox1433 mase didn’t have to give anyone anything. Not a mase fan, I personally dislike mase. He put the entire harlem world on any mix tape & helped them to get deals. That’s what’s wrong with you kids, you want $ just because you know a dude & hung out with them. Mase tried to help them get deals which cam, cardan & mcgruff did & the rest mase signed as Harlem world with so so def. big L didn’t like mase & was hating plain & simple. Just because mase got signed he wasn’t supposed to give anyone anything. Did they write his raps? did they bring him to puff? nas & jay learned that lesson the hard way & eventually fell back. You lazy weirdos think you deserve something for nothing. loser like behavior

Last time i checked. No body owns "syllables"..

[@PhilLashio-xd8dy]

He means he pioneered a way of rhyming syllables that no one else was doing at the time and Big L copied him

[@dz9459]

Gruff’s syllables are better than both of them, argue with urself

[@frag6028]

Gruff was spitting stupid back then but real shit if we keep it 100, the whole of Harlem were rapping like that. All had that style.

[@flynig1]

I see why they took it down

[@sirrom5155]

started using your syllables? yeah i knooooooooowwwwwwwwww

[@deetee5316]

I thought yall talked about sports or is Is What it is for all topics

[@kingdrizzay24]

Big L actually really is the best from Harlem but at least they explained why they don't acknowledge it

[@g-holy]

He ain't better than neither one of these guys.

I don't know the in's and outs of the street beef and i don't really care but mase trying to act like L learnt mulit symbolics from him 🤣 thats straight up disrespect to Lord Finesse

[@noshortselectric5208]

Or big daddy Kane. Mase is delusional. Great flow but a flash in the pan as an artist, flavour of the month kind of rapper. Meanwhile Big L's material still holds up

@@noshortselectric5208 I can see why his own people would punk him. He got that bitch in him.
