"We Just Wanted to SHINE" Large Pro Talks Going From DJ to Producer & Lists TOP 10 Songs He Produced

[@brooklyn_geek]

Extra P had one of the best guest spots I've ever seen in a live rap show...1999 at the Tunnel and the Roots headlined with an unknown Eminem as one of openers...the Roots brought out a few cats to freestyle...Jeru, Mos Def etc, when it was Large Professor's turn they threw the mic up to the balcony and my man snatched it out the air and started rhyming ON BEAT like it was planned...homie looked like a Jedi😂😂😂 and of course he murdered the verse

[@PercivalDunlop]

Whoa, this was insane! Keep it up!

[@grinchoi1]

Large Pro’s remix of Common’s “Resurrection” might be my favorite remix of all-time.

[@aakim58]

Large Pro IS HIP HOP. It’s in his soul.

[@sq1ne]

Word! Met him in person... AUTHENTIC.

[@houndawg]

Seems like a really good dude

[@MyDogSteppedOnaBeee]

Extra P deserves his flowers. You guys gotta ask him about producer Paul C. He showed P stuff on the beat machines and taught him things with producing.

[@jdovma1]

My Large Pro 10 + 1 (not including anything he mentioned): Common - Resurrection (Extra P remix) Organized Konfusion - Stress (Extra P remix) Mad Skillz ft Q-Tip & Large Pro - Extra Abstract Skillz Nas - You're The Man Large Pro ft Nas - One Plus One Tribe - Keep It Rolllin Large Pro - Mad Scientist Slick Rick - I Sparkle Busta Rhymes ft Ghostface, Raekwon and Roc Marci - The Heist Non Phixion - We Are The Future Nas - Star Wars

Shout out to Large Pro a REAL Hip Hop Legend......I can't stop laughing at Gat sitting beside him looking EXACTLY like Dumb Donald from Fat Albert & the Cosby Kids!!!🤣😂😆✌🤴🏽

[@divine12th]

Dam I was hoping Xtra P would mention B-1’s song “Hustle” he produced. One of my favorite white label joints at the time.

[@frankwhite7109]

[@meyou5789]

I didn't get hip to Large Professor until Midnight Marauders track *Keep It Rollin'* . After that then I went back.

[@marleypark13]

Fire track ain't it 🔥

My intro to Large Professor was It Ain't Hard To Tell since he sampled MJ's Human Nature

Large Professor is a great interview. He always has insightful things to say and always positive. I enjoy his production and raps.

[@Discipline2-q6g]

Please get Da Bush Babees on the show, Queen Latifah, 45 King, De la Soul, Wutang, Dj Premier, Das Efx, UMC'S, etc

[@joojoobaw]

Bush Babees sadly unsung as hell, they deserve so much more attention especially for that Gravity

[@Discipline2-q6g]

[@Discipline2-q6g]

[@LaLigaNoLaDan]

I choose Large Pro as the person we should cryogenically freeze to save for the future. I know he wont allow anyone to fuck it up for us.

[@LesCharles]

Still got my pause cassette tapes and extended instrumental yo. Scientists for real for real. The energy was different then. 🫡💯

[@adetolaodukoya3493]

I like large professor a lot and I see why Nas was cool to chill with him after Illwill hit killed and he decided to really do rap full time , I’ll do the same too , large is a kinda cool Kinda person you would wanna hang out with and do Music, he is just apparently a student and natural lover of rapper culture industry ,I like people him and naturally drawn them, his energy must be magnetic to nas and other rappers like busta rhymes and Qtip , God bless you large you did a lot for me growing up as a newyork rap culture fan , follower and lover 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬

[@durroefowler-jn7vh]

Just my opinion just a question are people for getting Boogie Down Production?

[@TheRealSugeKnight]

Is this a barbershop?...Or a Hair Salon? 😂

[@beabaypop9677]

*My greatest concern is how to recover from all these economic and global troubles and stay afloat especially with the political power tussle going on in US. The government has really called things more difficult for its citizens and we can't sit back and bear all the consequences of the bad governance. We need to take our financial life serious.....I recommend stock market investment and digital currencies*

[@Ninjashii]

Exactly; there are strategies for achieving solid gains regardless of economic or market conditions. However, these strategies are typically executed by experienced investment experts.

[@dogzwood]

Crypto is bringing a different revolution in the world economy, people who are optimistic investors earn consistently, others will just sit and watch

[@RogelioCelestino-cj7uy]

As a beginner, having a mentor is crucial for staying on track. I'm fortunate to have guidance from renowned market expert, Brenda Hiscock, whose valuable insights keep me accountable and focused.

[@wzjwzj4147]

Wow. I'm so excited seeing Miss Brenda Hiscock been mentioned here also. Didn't know she has been good to other people too, this is wonderful.

[@mboulenger]

A friend that I referred to as Ms Brenda a few days ago just received 9,55O profits with a little start up, I became jealous. lol🙈

[@adetolaodukoya3493]

[@justinp2000]

Tf you talking bout you sound dumb

[@TCOverload]

Yo Math, I'm telling you we should collab. I can make any typa beat.

[@alexanderdavis75]

I disagree with the marley marl......howie tee was sampling before marley marl remember UTFO Came out before Roxanne Shante .....

[@RenR70]

What was Howie sampling? I know early on before sampling producers used to just have live bands interpolate a prior song. (Like “Rappers Delight” having a band play “Good Times” by Chic)
