Finally after a full decade we're blessed with a new Big L CD entitled Return of the Devil's Son due out November 23rd. As far as I'm concerned he's top 5 DOA rappers. The way he spat lyrics was sharp, and his metaphors were insane, decades before his time. That's why its great to see 21 new tracks from the lyrical genius, Lamont Coleman. Dare i say best outta Harlem? Yes.

I hope the beat selection is better than his last posthumous record The Big Picture. L's lyrics are always at 100% sharp and witty but I felt like the whole 2nd half of that cd was lacking because of the 3rd rate beats. I don't know who in Big L's camp let Stan Spit get on his records btw.
RIP to one of the greatest men to ever bless the mic, the devil's son, Lamont Coleman!
