    1. yo this is the hottest freestyle session since it came out back in the day, these are writtens though, hot shit regardless

      1. Original – Milkbone – Keep it Real
        Freestyle by Big L & Jay-z – This (1995)

        The Ghetto – Freddie Gibbs (2010)

        Hope this helps

    2. Ill never forget the forst time I heard this ish, damn if he were still here he’d be shittin on Jay all day……Jay was shook son

      1. By you mentioning Big L would be shittin on Jay-z would mean Jay-z would still be on top and relevant. No rapper shits on another rapper if they’re not relevant. So some how Big L would have surpassed him and made big business deals clothing lines, NBA partnerships, and another chick as hot as Beyonce to shit on Jay, not to mention be in the “illuminati” (smh)then you would be hatin on him too. Your justa typical hatin ass nigga. Embrace what you are.

    3. haha i hella remember this shit!. fuckin’ classic.. i used to bump this shit all the time.. r.i.p Big L.. that fool is a legend..

    4. Jay wasn’t shook jack asses…. Big L was actually considering signing with Roc-A-Fella, him and Jay would’ve been the illest duo of all time…..

      1. yo you cant fight em. when they feeling they self, you just have to leave em or else they’ll call you a hater.

      1. Ofcourse your list consists of all Dead Artists! You wouldn’t even put them on a list if they were still alive. You programed fools always say the same shit.

    5. Yesssssssss… BIG L
      lll
      lll
      lll
      lll
      llllllllll
      llllllllll
      Shitted on Jay-Z… would still be shittin on the game

      1. Yo MFKing don’t do that cuz my name is Eric too. But I fucking can’t stand Coochie man. Dammit please tell me this fool is joking about coochie man. I officially hate my name now.

      2. how sensitive are all of you??? hes probably just looking for attention!! Why are you getting so mad? If he’s not looking for attention (for which he probably is and you “mentally shallow” people have all taken the bait) and he does think Gucci is better so what!! He may be young, not too bright (lol), or just not into lyrical hip hop… who cares if “Eric” thinks Gucci is better than Big L, really?? Who is Eric?? And who cares??? not me…

        These hip hop forums very rarely have any good discussions because their full of rediculously childish conversations like these… Leave your own interesting comment rather than just ripping into those who you believe to of written something stupid… if they have leave them out!!! And create an interesting topic/comment – if you really are that “interlectual”

    6. YOU GUYS THINK THIS IS GOOD LOL THIS SHIT SUCKS GO LISTEN TO MESSY AND GUCCI THATS THE REAL HOOD SHIT BIG L WAS ALRIGHT AND JAY Z HAS FELL OFF GET ON THE NEW HYPE GGGUUUUCCCCIII!!!

      1. Gucci !!!! r u fuckin serious or u r jst pissin out yo mouth !!! Gucci n d Bick fools can throw that toilet shit music in yo mouth…Did u even listen to Big L ?? how can u compare illiterate fuckers to a legend…Gucci will neva be a legend…

    7. im so ahead of my time that my parents havent met yet. THats a sick libe that whole verse is riduclous best freestyle i heard in a long time he shit on jigga RIP BIG L

    8. Are people really saying Gucci Mane is better then Big L?? Really @Eric?? Gucci Mane isnt anywhere near the best out NOW, how’s he going to be better then one of the top 5 EVER..REALLY??

    9. Big L is doggin Jay on this freestyle. i’m sure if L was alive now Jay would hold up much better but he got drowned in this one.

    10. Fuckin Classic.

      Respect the realness

      and all the jay haters talking shit like he wasn’t ill on this, you need to re-adjust your ears. L kills it obviously but Jay still comes ill

    11. The person who commented that Gucci Mane was better than this may be the least intellectual person ever born.

      Big L is the most clever hip hop artist of all time. The multis in this are absolutely out of control. This is hip-hop! Well—it was—90s and until early 2000’s. P.S. Jay-z’s flow in this is OUT OF CONTROL.

      However, now there is a new breed of hip-hop. J. Cole, Freddie Gibbs, Fashawn, Big Sean, Jay Electronica—these guys kill it!

    12. I Seen Jigga 3 times in concert. and he has never mentions big L once. he mentions pac and pac hated him.

      So jigga neglects

    13. How come Jay-Z never talks about Big L, giving him shoutouts in songs, or even making some tributes? They was pretty close back in the days.

      Anyway, Big L absolutely murdered it. Big L, you’ll always be remembered. 5 stars.

    14. This was back in the day when Jay-Z was just getting known and Big L had a album out they both ripped it and you can hear them both respect each other… Stretch & Bobbitto set the standard for college radio…..

    15. Jay mustve felt like shit in there not being able to hold up with Big L…even though Jay Z was really freestyling..Big L was reciting ill lines that he already had in his arsenal and freestyling a few lines but…Jay still had a ill flow though even though he was missing on a lot of shit and stopped…Big L was promoting the shit out of Jay though b4 he was really known..Jay needs to rep L more…

    16. Real hip hop here son, no soldier boy kindergarden shit here, i feel BIG L dont get enuff props tbh, not enuff cats put him in their list of top ten mcs

      But all they need to do is listen to l on this track or the album and they will know what time it is.

      RIP BIG L, one of the dopest mcs to ever touch the mic, 5 star solute

    17. jay is the best rapper alive hands down this is why he is were and as rich as he is.give credit flow was crazy

      1. Big L would murder Jay-z if he was alive..Jay-z is studdering in his second verse..he’s fuckin wack…ever since he came outta retirement he been dropping duds..R.I.P Big L..fuck jay-z he bites rakim,big l,and biggie rhymes..

    18. Man i need to download this shit. This shit is hot and I knew it before I even listened to it. Anyone knows where I can download this for free let me know. It is not on limewire.

    19. Aah…. So refreshing…
      One of the first “tracks” I downloaded… Back in like ’98…

      Big L, R.I.P. — along w/ the good ol’ days…

      Two legends right there.

      Every bar by L was stupid nice.

    20. this deserves no stars but since i had to rate it i put one star. if you wanna hear a good song listen to that new rihanna featuring drake now thats a song

      1. Yo u a bitchmade ass coon hating on the lyrical skills of a legend I mean you want that bubblegum pop shit with no substance just because you can’t understand the concepts and wordplay. Go find a rope and hang on!

      2. dude this is the same boring ol hip hop talking bout the typical rapper things. EMINEM IS THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME

    21. “i’m so ahead of my time, my parents haven’t met yet”

      honest to god, that probably the best line in hip hop history

      1. yo em is dope but this is greatness, just imagine if big l was around in the scene now?! he was ripn shit up in his time, and its a shame he had to leave early, as he said ahead of his time

    22. DAMN!wish i was old enough back then to still remember hip-hops golden years…this is fireeee. vibe, flows, content, everything

    23. This got 54 votes 5/5 and one tone deaf hating faggot gave it 1/5 just to drag the average down. What type of jerk off scum does shit like that. anyways shits classic fire. Respect jay, big L rip.

    24. I guess after this freestyle we all know what would’ve happened to jay z’s career if big L never got killed..

    25. L hled this down without a doubt. Jay wa sok, but he was not touching L on this one.

      The beat is, MilkBone – Keep it Real

    26. Beats! Beats! Beats!
