Big L? More like Big W. (*awkwardly chuckles at the corner of the room*)
While it is a bit dated nowadays, this doesn’t take away from the fact that Lifestylez is an intensely solid 90s hip hop record with great rhymes, lyrical content and a sharp, fierce flow from the boastful Big L! L’s delivery is raw and full of character. Despite the negatives going against this album, it’s Big L’s starpower that shines through and gives the album its grit and ... read more
