Yessir…those “rare selections” joints are solid…the little Finesse write-ups that go with the tracks are a nice touch. Interesting pieces of history, like the Caron Wheeler track. I will wait patiently for the Big L achieves to really be tapped into (with the vintage production intact) and also on the “Funky Technician: The Remix Project” (hits stores in March 2004…yet we wait).

Nice song, keep up the good work! This is my favorite HipHop site!

reminds me of kane.
ditc unreleased 94 is nice too.

“dangerzone” blocks.

what ever happened to the new big l album that was supposed to drop last year? I remember reading that l’s mom found a box of tapes in a closet and gave them to premo.

Thanks for this Robbie, keep up the good work!!!! been checkin’ on the reg for a couple years now and still coming back for more …wtf @ Finally,above, that sounds too good to be true..lets hope its true! RIP L, one of the GOAT’s

I recognize some of the lyrics on the first verse. Does anyone have the freestyle tape that he and lord finesse did? THAT was classic!!! I had it, and of course didn’t realize how precious it was and lost it. Does anyone else remember that?

You can hear Big Daddy Kane and to a lesser extent Kool G Rap influence.

serious burner, love the dusted edge as the vinyl popcorns to a murderous mic discipline, very heavy Harlem
