Lil Cease would've been a star had BIG lived

[C-Styles]

You can't front on Cease's voice, with the right mentoring, Cease was destined to be a star. Dude had the appeal as well as the production would've been on point had BIG picked his beats and set him up with the right features. Actually i would think that he would've had a "Harlem world" type of debut like Mase's. It's a shame how one man's death can impact a lot of lives and what could've beens and what not.

you can see the hit potential in some of his joints. Even Dr. Dre complimented Cease on his debut album saying he heard a lot of hit joints on it.

The Wonderful World of Cease A Leo was a very, very good album

"Do My Thang".....cease nd hov was an underrated record

 

[Homer Simpson]

dude that was saying cam, big, and jay z lyrics couldve been a star

BIG would've made sure his lyrics and image were well-put-together and that he had bonafide hits ready to go... BIG got people to buy that Jr. MAFIA album and most of them nikkas were trash. Cease actually had personality and was the only JM member outside of Kim that anyone knew shyt about- BIG would've overseen that project and handled it better than it was.

JM all had great rapping voices...especially Klepto and Cease. a couple of them coulda had legit solo careers.

That video of him from Cocaine City in like 2005 still haunts me.....That shyt came out of nowhere I think Cease did exactly what he would have, more or less, in the narrow window between his first solo and the decline of rap as a viable commercial genre for C list artists like him, he maybe could have gone plat one more time.

I'm sorry but lil cease never brought anything special to the table IMO.

that was the record to jump start cease's solo career, BIG had plans right after that to set him up properly.

What was his appeal?

you might've not seen it, but it was well destined for him to succeed with BIG anchoring the way
