On February 23, 1995, Big L and Jay-Z left the mics smoking on Stretch and Bobbito’s Show. Until now, only seven minutes of this session circulated on the net. But thanks to DPG, here’s the full 10 minutes. Commentary included. Dig in ya pockets and pay homage.

We had a whole lot of superstars on this stage here tonight. But this is… Papoose's house? We're all still reeling that the 20th anniversary of Hip-Hop's Super Bowl featured the Nacirema Dream as a headliner. Damn you Kendrick Lamar and your generous ways. Yeah it's hip-hop to bum rush the show but c'mon Pap you know you didn't deserve that look. And you gave even less fucks by performing a new song. C'mon fam. You've paid a lot of dues through the years but this was the big dawg time in the program. Don't disrespect the game in your pursuit for fame. Oh well, Brooklyn took it.
Speaking of BK, Fab had a master plan of bringing Lil Kim and Foxy Brown back together again. But when it was time to make history, Fox Boogie was nowhere to be found. Where was you at? Wack.
young jay z lol ..they both killed it
Mad fuckin props for this. Never knew there was a longer version.

big L kills jay z tho real talk
Niggas need to cherish this shit, we ain’t never gonna get back to this, I’m positive of that….
i used to hear this as a little kid/early teen, out of CONTEXT and always thought jay-z was inferior to big L. Now listening to this as a grown man, it seems the other way around.
@bstep
no doubt man, on so many levels… i dunno how new rappers hear this shit and dont wanna end their lives
I used to play this shit like 3-times a day back in the day. Big-L was lyrical excellence. Hands down one of the illest to ever do it.
but the extra three minutes don’t have any new rapping tho
hahaha this is the joint I play for people that say Jay isn’t an real MC! Everyone knows in order to get on Stretch & Bobbito’s show back then, you HAD to be nice. Jay and Big L killed it!
This is Jay-z at his best….Like seriously, this is classic shit…. Tell souljaboy,Drake and all these are “artists” to take notes
JAY AND BIG L MURKED THIS!!!! U JUST COULDN’T MISS A BOBBITO & STRETCH SHOW!!!! I COULD ONLY IMGAINE WHERE BIG L WOULD BE AFTER SIGNIN’ WIT ROCAFELLA!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
All i got for chicks is hard dick and bubble gum-big l.. This freestyle is soo infamous.. Big l bodied hov on this.. But hov went in too.. I miss hip hop like this..
This motherfuker Big L was niicceeeee….
“I’m so ahead of my time, my parents havent met yet”….
“Hot lead facelift”
“In high school, stabbing teachers who gave me bad grades”
…. so many
Would still eat most of these rappers today….. the multi-syllabic delivery was tight, but not overdone like some other rappers..
R.I.P. Big L
I used to Record this Bobbito & Streatch show on Cassette Tape. I still got the tapes. There will never be another underground show like it.
even though big l was spittin a written rhyme, the shit is just too nasty. and jay… butter smooth. nigga spread cream cheese all over the bagel, (pause). hahahaha
“All chicks aint shit, no such thing as Ms Right”
” Met up with L’s on the road to riches” HAHA Jay’s a fool for that one.
i gotta be honest this is why jay-z the best of all time basically to have rubbed shoulders with Big L, Biggie Smalls and around when tupac drama going on and jay still going no doubt he the best and this is comming from a hardcore eminem fan btw i bet you even ask em he’ll tell the same story id defo put em second thou
Jay had to follow that flow he had no chance.
This is a prue classic no doubt Big L killed this shit easy..I wonder why Jay never shows love to Big L when he shows love to Pac and Biggie..
L Was dope, Had potential to be 1 of the greatest ever, but the good die young. R.I.P. Big L..
This whole shit is ill though, Jay and L killed this, I miss Hip Hop, fuck.
jay had that one-of-a-kind flow way back in ’95. destined for greatness man. i could listen to this shit on repeat all day just playing in the back ground.
big l had better punch lines than 95% of these punch line rappers today. smh…
shit gave me chills. classic classic classic shit.
“i’m tired too… fuck that” <—jay, lmao.
timeless…
Big L RIP. Never new there was a extra 3 min. Thanks for the hook up. Things dun changed…

@Elbino Joe
