RIP big L

Just thinking how big he could've been just makes me sad. He was gonna sign to Roc-A-Fella right before he died.

Interesting to wonder if he would've went commercial like Jay-Z.

To be honest he would've went the DMX route ( Hopefully without the drugs). He would've made his horrorcore style more mainstream.

How long has it been? Did they find the murder?

He died in 1999. So it's been 17 years. He was shot 5 times ( Three in the face). I think the person who did it Gerard Woodley, is still in hiding.

Yeah Woodley knew big L since they were kids. Fukked up man

 

[Farrinto]

R.I.P., that man had serious potential. It's sad what happened to him. It's also sad that his death basically skyrocketed his career and legacy and he didn't get to see any of it. His first album is a personal classic too.

Wasnt the killer trying to shoot Big Ls brother apparently and killed him by mistake?

They killed Big L because of his brother. I think his brother was already locked up; and they went after him for retaliation. Sad Shyt!
