He literally has him on the hook of "Never Change" before Kanye had a solo single record out
And Big L's a street rapper in the vein of Beans, Bleek, State Property, etc.. why on earth would he have a problem with that?
It's guys like Nas who never put anyone in their prime that you have to worry about sabotaging others careers. Just ask Cormega and Nature

Punchline rap? He woulda been Chino XL.
Nas used Nature to sabatoge Cormega’s career. FACTS! No one ever talks about this shyt though.
There was no way Nas was going to let ‘Mega go track for track with him over Dre beats. Mega outshined Nas on every track they were both on.
Nature was nice. I supported him. But his delivery style alone told us he was never going to be a commercial success. Which was the point (thanks Nas!).

its not like he doesn't have a 7 minute freestyle that say otherwise. or it's not like Beans wasn't going toe to toe with Jay on tracks already at rocafella

They act like he wasn't on the hook of "Never Change". And didn't became a household name off the strength of Jay shouting him out all on those first two Blueprint albums
If Jay sabotaged a rappers career like Nas did Nature or Cormega you wouldn't hear the end of it. They barely give him a pass for Amil
All because he didn’t wanna sign a fukked up deal with Steve Stoute.
He was telling artists not to mess with Mega as well, which Nore confirmed.
But shoutout to P and Hav for not falling for the blackball game and providing Mega with a lifeline
This all gets brushed aside because it was Nas and not Jay

fukk all that, I'm just mad we never got a Nas/AZ album. That shyt is just criminal.

Yes he would have, Jay wasn't nicer than L. That had already been proven prior.
Cam literally said Jay signed off on everything Dips wanted to do, even when there was tension.

Chino XL didnt have no commercial appeal and L was more than punchline rap, he had commercial potential and was a masterful storyteller. He would've been putting shyt out along the same lines as Nas and Biggie. Jay would've been pushed further down the ladder.
I heard big L debut lol
this is an old debate people used to have:
if Big L signed with Rocafella, Big L would have been vocal enough to talk Jay-Z out of dissing Nas on The Blueprint while everyone else at rocafella fell back and let Jay handle his business, but technically, Nas aimed at Jay on Come Get Me on nastradamus that Jay mockingly replied on Come and Get Me on In My Lifetime vol 3 after Nas saw Jay with Carmen....Big L died in Feb 1999 and all that stuff happened after he died
Big L on Kanye beats would have been something to hear...also, Big L on Rocafella would have made Cam'Ron step up his pen game on Purple Haze given that both of them were from Children of the Corn and we wouldn't have gotten computers putin'...Big L on the Roc would have siphoned both Kanye and Heatmakers beats to make his album instead of for dipset and roc artists
