Fifteen years ago, on February 15th, 1999, Harlem rapper Big L (aka Lamont Coleman) was tragically gunned down in the same neighborhood that he consistently repped in his rhymes. His murder came at a time when he had one of the most-talked about singles out, “Ebonics,” his D.I.T.C. crew was making major noise with posse cuts like “Day One,”and his mixtape and radio freestyles were scorching in the streets, which all led to his sophomore album being one of the most anticipated projects by a New York MC to drop. There were even rumors that he was signing to Roc-A-Fella Records, the hottest and most successful young label in the Big Apple at the time led by his rapper friend Jay Z. Unfortunately, his moment to shine at the next level never came.

To celebrate Big L’s rap career today on the fifteenth anniversary of his death, it was only right that we link up with our brethren at UpNorthTrips for a proper audio tribute to one of the greatest MCs of all time. Though Big L’s first album Lifestylez of da Poor & Dangerous is a classic in its own right, and he’s got plenty of notable singles and guest appearances in his catalog, we thought to truly highlight the essence of Big L’s lyrical greatness, charisma, performance ability, and bottomless pit of bars, we’d round up 15 of his dopest radio, mixtape, and live freestyles (plus a few bonuses because that’s how we do), and put them all together in one mix for you to enjoy.

Read about each of our selections below while you stream/download our exclusive NahRight x UpNorthTrips mix The Big Picture: 15 Classic Big L Freestyles, courtesy of UNT's in-house DJ The Vinylcologist. RIP Big L, one love:  http://nahright.com/news/2014/02/15/15-classic-big-l-freestyles/



NahRight & UpNorthTrips Present: The Big Picture - 15 Classic Big L Freestyles

Junglist Manifesto Recordings Presents: Chili Banks - "Astounding Science Fiction" LP "From the far horizons of the unknown come transcribed tales of new dimensions in time and space. 
These are stories of the future, adventures in which you'll live in a million could be years on a thousand maybe worlds". Astounding Science Fiction is Chili Banks' 3rd full length LP since the inception of Junglist Manifesto Recordings in 2009. 

The album is a themed album based on old time radio science fiction stories from the 40's and 50's. The stories first appeared in pulp magazines of the same era written by some huge names in sci-fi as well as some obscure ones. 

The tracks are audio vignettes, they are stand alone stories from a time when the world and universe was a less discovered place. 
Science fiction samples are mixed with organic drum sounds, sub basses, and a mix of new and old techniques.

The album serves as an exploration in the art of sampling and takes a step outside of dance floor Jungle/Drum & Bass. The album features 2 heavy hitting remixes by producer Bay B Kane. Join us on a trip through the universe.

CHILI BANKS - A STORY IN WAX 2

Chili Banks "Edit Your Drums" L.P. is Chili's second full length album in as many years. This time around he's pushing the drum edits and crate digging vocals. The album drops July 15, 2011.

Chili Banks' passion lies in Producing and Djing Jungle. Chili's passion began with late 80's Hip-Hop when he fell in love with the art of sampling and beat making. In 1994 he was drawn into Toronto's emerging underground rave scene. As the years past, he has worked as a Promoter, DJ, & Artist.

In 1998 he began producing his own brand of Jungle/ Drum & Bass. Some still describe his style as "Old School". He believes in the sound that he grew up on, call it what you will "Old School" or "True School" to him it's simply JUNGLE. Heavily edited drum breaks and sub-basslines are a must. Finding interesting and dynamic samples is just par for the course. His sample database continues to grow on a daily basis.

Over the past 10 years Chili has played at various clubs across Toronto, and throughout Ontario, as well as on the other side of the world in K.L. Malaysia. In 2010 Chili has been playing in Edinburgh, (UK) for Xplicit @ their huge Jungledub nights.

In 2006, he began the event promotion company Science Productions, along with DJs Ghaleon and Basketballjones to promote the true Jungle sound old and new with "We're Old School" and his own "Children of the DrumS" parties. He has worked along side some of the worlds elite DJs and Producers, promoting good Jungle.

This is the tape which DJ Krome & Time got the License sample from - Saxon vs Maverick in Leeds in 1985. You have Papa Levi, Tippa Irie, Daddy Colonel and Trevor Sax and Muscle Head behind the controls.

Usual stuff, this audio file was recorded from a cassette to the computer.  I used Izotope RX and Adobe Audition to edit the audio passing it through a Master rack, enjoy!!!
