The Big L & Jay-Z Freestyle On Stretch & Bobbito Show Extended Unreleased 10min Version
Hip Hop has many never found stuff where 90s freaks like me are hunting on like wild animals. Like this for instance, the full Stretch & Bobbito Show with Big L & Jay-Z as guests on the 23th of February 1995. The only thing we had was the legendary freestyle that was cut out. Props to HecticEclectic to upload his recorded tape from that day that featured more shit. For me personally this is the best moment ever recorded on radio… Big L IS the best MC ever, since I first had a track of him. ‘You can put your man on too’, I wonder if he knew he would be in Forbes magazine and shit 15 years later? The most powerful hip hop artist ever was back then just Big L’s man haha. This shit is classic, no doubt. Props to Stretch & Bobbito for making everything so legendary. I tweaked it for y’all. Enjoy and reminisce:
Sidenote, Big L’s family putting out a new official project next month. Support! Big props to The Big Sleep for holding down Big L on the internet. We brothers.
