Recording sessions for the album took place primarily at D&D Studios in New York City, New York during 1997 to 1998. The album was produced by DJ Premier, Ron Browz, Ron G, Lord Finesse, Pete Rock, Shomari, Mike Heron, Ysae, and Showbiz. The album features the popular singles “Ebonics” and “Size ‘Em Up” (the later of which was the last single released while Big L was still alive), as well as the #1 Rap single “Flamboyant”. The Big Picture features appearances from Fat Joe, Guru, Kool G Rap, Big Daddy Kane and 2Pac. It was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America in October 2000. Big L The Big Picture. 2000's The Big Picture was reproduced and released the following year of Harlem's emcee Big L's death. Heavyweight emcees Fat Joe, 2Pac, Kool G Rap and Big Daddy Kane among others are featured in Big L's second and last record, and was produced from several producers including DJ Premier, Lord Finesse and Pete Rock. The Big Picture fails to disappoint fans of Big L's acclaimed debut Lifestylez Ov Da Poor & Dangerous with Big L's last and excellent performance. Big L comes harder than ever in The Big Picture , providing you with the wittiest and most brilliant tracks and freestyles of his career. His flow can be quick, but never inaudible. He always finds ways to connect his lines with clarity, flow, catchiness, and a vacancy of filler or awkward lines. Big L has a distinct voice that supplements his unique lines which makes Big L stand out even more in the rap scene, especially in contrast with some of his guest emcees who for the most part have very diverse vocal pitches. He preserves his 90's rap style but never lets his performance become stale, boring, or obsolete. The metaphors and analogies that Big L has made in his work are highly regarded, and The Big Picture is no exception. You'll be hearing his ingenious comparisons like this throughout the album: I asked honey her name and she told me Celeste She had big breasts, honey had me harder than a Spanish test The originality and diversity doesn't stop at his analogies. Most rappers make their entire album about one subject, using one formula and hardly switching up their style at all. Big L is not like most rappers. From "Ebonics" which is solely composed of Big L explaining a host of slang terms, to the story-like tracks "Casualties of a Dice Game" and "Games", and to "'98 Freestyle", The Big Picture lacks no variety, keeping this album fresh for long times to come. The production has been stepped up from "Lifestylez", but it is overdone at some points. It seems like the producers added too much flare when trying to make the tracks stand out, when Big L already succeeded at making every track feel bold and unique. The beats weaved into this album are definitely more interesting than "Lifestylez" and for the most part fit the song, creating a more enjoyable track, but again, sometimes the producers go a little too far when trying to make the beats diverse, resulting in a couple quirky-sounding rhythms. Despite the seldom awkward beats, the production is still strong and can really assist The Big Picture in sucking you in to it. Big L does not fail to impress in The Big Picture , it is only disheartening that we will not be seeing anymore work from one of Harlem's finest emcees. The only thing holding this back from being phenomenal is the minor setbacks of over-production. If you like rap, there is no excuse not to have this. The Big Picture.

One thing is clear: a new generation of Australian artists is appropriating rap in their own way, injecting a great dose of African music and deep sounds. But since its emergence in the late 1980s, local rap has always stood out from its American big brother. Often brilliantly. Twenty years ago, the French Touch invaded the clubs and radio stations all over the world, putting France high on the map of electronic music. Qobuz tells you the story of 10 records which have left their mark on this golden era of French producers. At the dawn of the ’90s, the trip hop wave overtook the UK with an electronica sound influenced by Jamaican music and hip hop beats. With their chloroformed rhythms and heavy ambience, Massive Attack, Portishead, Tricky, Morcheeba and several other outfits invented a kind of dark, futuristic and often cinematic soul music. Here’s a spotlight on 10 albums from a genre with blurred sonic borders but a definitive musical influence..

  • Hood, My Street: Ghetto Spaces in American Hip-Hop Music
    Pobrane z czasopisma New Horizons in English Studies http://newhorizons.umcs.pl Data: 22/08/2019 20:22:20 New Horizons in English Studies 2/2017 CULTURE & MEDIA • Lidia Kniaź Maria Curie-SkłodowSka univerSity (uMCS) in LubLin [email protected] My City, My ‘Hood, My Street: Ghetto Spaces in American Hip-Hop Music Abstract: As a subculture created by black and Latino men and women in the late 1970s in the United States, hip-hop from the very beginning was closely related to urban environment. Undoubtedly, space has various functions in hip-hop music, among which its potential to express the group identity seems to be of the utmost importance. The goal of this paper is to examine selected rap lyrics which are rooted in the urban landscape: “N.Y. State of Mind” by Nas, “H.O.O.D” by Masta Ace, and “Street Struck,” in order to elaborate on the significance of space in hip-hop music. Interestingly, spaces such as the city as a whole, a neighborhood, and a particular street or even block which are referred to in the rap lyrics mentioned above express oneUMCS and the same broader category of urban environment, thus, words con- nected to urban spaces are often employed interchangeably. Keywords: hip-hop, space, urbanscape. Music has always been deeply rooted in everyday life of African American commu- nities, and from the very beginning it has been connected with certain spaces. If one takes into account slave songs chanted in the fields (often considered the first examples of rapping), or Jazz Era during which most blacks no longer worked on the plantations but in big cities, it seems that music and place were not only inseparable but also nat- urally harmonized.

I DON’T UNDERSTAND IT D2. FED UP WIT THE BULLSHIT D3. LET ‘EM HAVE IT “L” 2015 was the 20th Anniversary of this undisputed New York classic from the late, great, Harlem MC, featuring production from D.I.T.C. legends Showbiz, Buckwild and Lord Finesse. The album itself was another shot across the bow of mid-90s pundits who were prophesizing the death of New York’s boom-bap dominance. Alongside recent classics from Nas, Biggie, Mobb Deep and Smif N Wessun, Lifestylez Ov Da Poor & Dangerous laid out the ascendancy of another visionary MC who could throw down brags punchlines with the best of them, but who never veered away from truly thoughtful lyrical dialogue. Most tracks on the album feature slower tempos, which gave the soon-to-be-immortalized MC the chance to fully explore a range of flows and approaches. Cases in point include the two commercial singles – “Put It On” and “MVP” – as well as the promo-only single “Street Struck,” the latter produced by Lord Finesse and containing perhaps L’s deepest rhymes on the album. There are also some great posse cuts here, starting with “8 Iz Enuff,” which was all about exposing L’s crew (including Herb McGruff, Mike Boogie and Buddah Bless); and the amazing “Da Graveyard,” which let established peers like Lord Finesse and Grand Daddy I.U.

WHEREAS: Coleman attended Julia Richman High School. While in high school, Coleman freestyle battled in his hometown of Harlem; in his last interview, he stated, "in the beginning, all I ever saw me doing was battling everybody on the street comers, rhyming in the hallways, beating on the wall, rhyming to my friends. Every now and then, a house party, grab the mic, a block party, grab the mic." He graduated in from high school in 1992. WHEREAS: Emerging from Harlem, New York in the early to mid-1990s, Coleman became well known amongst underground hip-hop fans for his freestyling ability, and was eventually signed to Columbia Records, where he released his debut album, “Lifestylez of Da Poor & Dangerous” in 1995, which is now considered by many fans as a classic album.

  • WHAT IS HIP HOP? the Four Elements of Hip Hop Hip Hop Is Music — and a Culture, Encompassing Speech, Styles of Dress, Art
    WHAT IS HIP HOP? The Four Elements of Hip Hop Hip hop is music — and a culture, encompassing speech, styles of dress, art, poetry and dancing, as well as "rapping." Purists have narrowed the major components of the culture into four loosely defined categories: deejaying, emceeing, breaking and graffiti art. Deejaying Jamaican immigrant Kool Herc, inspired by the “dubbing” and “toasting” from his native home, is credited with introducing deejaying to New York. Early New York DJs improvised, using a pair of turntables as a makeshift instrument when funding for school music programs were cut. Later Afrika Bambataa evolved the art of deejaying. MCing, or Emceeing MCs have become a centralized figure in hip hop. Commercially, MCs are known as rappers. During hip hop’s early days, MCs played a supporting role, accompanying the deejay and carrying crates of records. They used a microphone to talk over breakbeats and publicize their own neighborhoods while the deejay spun records. As competition for this position increased, MCs engaged in one-upmanship, boasting of their greatness in the face of inner city economic despair. Breaking Also known as b-boying, the dances that accompany the music have many influences. Kids in diverse New York neighborhoods were exposed to Eastern martial arts, tap dancing, gymnastics, salsa, Afro-Cuban and Native American dances. In the late ‘90’s b-boys and b- girls integrated moves from capoeira, a 16th century fighting dance developed by Brazilian slaves preparing for resistance. Graffiti Urban graffiti, using spray cans to create stylized murals and “tags” to create art in public spaces, gave kids a means of self-expression and a chance to spread political messages.
