None thing beats late 99 early 2000s REAL LIVE HIPHOP/ RAP! When if you was found out to be FAKE like Rick Ross nobody would work with you! When fruit cake dudes kept to themselves. When you had arrogant JAY at his best with jigga and hey papi! A hungry determined Luda spitting like crazy! Overall great time in music history

Lookin back it was awesome growing up listening to Big Tigga on DC radio. Live at Da Den used to come on every afternoon on WPGC 95.5 & it was kinda like the radio version of Da Basement. Seeing him on Rap City later on was the best.

R.O.C. went to work that day. JD broke my heart not doing anything with him besides ghostwriting for Bow Wow. Such a waste.

Never seen that freestyle, was just gonna say R.O.C was dope, first I heard of him was from Bow Wow's first album...

 

[Water Ur Seeds]

Big Tig would smoke alot of artists before their verses haha

idk if I'd say he didn't fuck w/ them at that point cuz he jus signed


think Gotti had a production deal & wasn't signed as an artist but Lito was signed to Cash Money thru Gotti label


then Gotti bought himself out the deal & Lito lingered around bout 5-6yrs til he was released



he had to change his name to Starlito cuz Cash Money owns what he recorded under "All-Star Cashville's Prince" (which was the full stage name)

I remember when GhostFace Killa had Tigga shook !!
