Is Big L the most overrated rapper ever?

I'll take that as a concession than.

What made you make this thread? Big L is hardly mentioned here.

This is what I was thinking.

He speaks as if people can't stop talking about Big L or something. Big L hardly ever makes people's lists for best rappers, he hardly ever gets mentioned when rappers do RIP to all the fallen artists, and he rarely gets mentioned even when it comes to NY rap.

Big L is one of my all time favourites. His music was pure raw unadulterated fire. He had so much more to grow as a rapper, and so much potential. He represented what Jay-Z tried to be initially for me.

I'm also going to pretend I didn't read the comment on Big Pun being overrated too.

I would debate but I rather waste 10 minutes of writing on something productive as of now. But, your argument is bullshit. You do not know anything about Big L or rap music for that matter.

Do you guys read, I'm not talking about this site I'm talking about the internet in general. Have you seen the youtube vids and other forums claiming this guy is the best ever when there were other members of DITC who were as good as him, but got no love. Whenever someone thinks of DITC, they think Big L when there were other members as good, that my friends is "Death Hype".

And yes Big L is mentioned on so many people's top 10 lists, again if you want underrated Del The Funky Homosapien, Ras Kass, OC, Lord Finesse, Diamond D, Boot Camp Clik, Aceyalone, Quasimoto, Jeru Da Damaj fit the bill.

Rappers who have no death hype are Half a Mill, ODB, and J dilla (well he wasn't rapper)
