Of course,thats why I always thought of him as 1 of the biggest losses in hip hop.I have numerous unreleased songs of his & they prove that point.Plus before L died he was on the radio saying how his 2nd CD was gonna be classic (not talking about Big Picture).I know lots of mc's say that but I really believe L was capable of it.His lyrics alone make some people think of him as a legend.

he's dope, he's one of the first rappers I started listening to back when I was like 13

but would he have gotten commercial success had he not been killed?

no, i just thinks heīs another artists that gets overhyped just for the simple fact that he is dead. i liked L but i just donīt think that he was that great.

I'd say he had stronger technique than tupac and more substance than biggie, and everyone is on their nuts for GOAT, so he should be getting more props

lyrically Big L was sick theres no doubt bout that
he def would have made it big in the hip hop game and it just depends on how u interpret legendary status cuz personally i dont see Big L doin a lot of commercial songs to appeal to the mainstream but he wuld have def been a legend in the rap game and for some is considered one.
