Do yall think Cam was Big L's replacement for the early-mid 00s after his death?

So imagine if Big L lived and hearin L on Money Cash Hoes or 4 Da Fam

Or.

Instead of Dipset it woulda been C.O.C who was more darker and grittier production, imagine Big L & McGruff on them Just Blaze, Kanye, & Heatmakerz beats
or even Big L if he woulda dissed Nas durin that time or McGruff & Beans tradin bars on a Just Blaze beat or probably woulda reunited wit Ma$e Murda

Diplomatic Immunity 1 & 2 were classics indeed but imagine a C.O.C album wit Just Blaze, Buckwild, Kanye, Lord Finesse, Showbiz, and Heatmakerz production

And the Hot 97 freestyles :whew:

Dipset brought the swag but C.O.C brought that hardcore and smooth !!

last but not least C.O.C/State Prop track around 03 - 05

jus somethin everyone wondered

L vs Nas woulda been crazy.
L obviously would have been better than Cam, vol 2 dropped before L died, so if L signed to the ROC, he would have been on Vol 3. Imagine him with a verse on So Ghetto.

Cam success was supposed to be Cam's success...

He put blood,sweat,and tears into his movement...plus he had the charisma...

Big L has fans but Cam has stans


Exactly. Cam would have been Cam regardless of Big L. He has the star power and charisma necessary

nah, Confessions of Fire was corny as hell but Cam was a legit star by late 98

alot of people felt Big Picture went gold because of his death, and im sure that did boost his sales, but L was trending up alot by then. if he would have dropped on the Roc in 99/00 it would have been crazy

4 out of the 5 in Children of the Corn had star potential, i think with the right team behind him Bloodshed could have made some big records in the late 90's
