JS-NYC on Hip Hop Isn't Dead!!!

Hey Kids:

I'm as giddy as a schoolgirl to announce that my encapsulation of Big L's Lifestylez ov da Poor and Dangerous has been published as part of Hip Hop Isn't Dead's annual Reader Submission contest (graphic is HHID's). While I can't hold a candle to Max and his insights, it's an honor to clutter up his corner of the web with my shit. Check the (cuban) link.

Big L is one of my favorite rappers ever. I didn't even know about him when he was alive, I won't front, but once I found out...he's the man. I have always tried to emulate his rhyme structures and flow...plus his lyrical content is right up my alley...but other than Pun and Eminem, I can't think of anyone who puts together rhymes that well...Kool G Rap too I guess...And your rundown of that album is right on the money too. Very well done.
