Mass Appeal Records are proud to announce details of the forthcoming Big L album, Harlem’s Finest: Return Of The King. Due out this Halloween, 31st October, the posthumous release celebrates Big L’s lyrical brilliance and features unreleased gems, rare freestyles, remastered classics and more. Harlem’s Finest: Return Of The King features contributions from Nas, Method Man, Mac Miller, Jay-Z, Showbiz, Herb McGruff and others.
The album is intended to both preserve and elevate Big L’s legacy as one of hip-hop’s most gifted lyricists and is the result of Mass Appeal, Nas and the rapper’s family and estate all working together to ensure its completion. The artist’s family wrote: “Big L has a long history with Nas as they both signed to Columbia in 1992. This is a full circle moment and we are excited for y’all to hear what we’ve been working on. As some of you may have noticed, many Big L songs have been removed from streaming services over the past few years. Those songs were unmixed/unmastered, samples were not cleared and many of the producers weren’t paid or credited properly. Thanks to the team at Mass Appeal we will be re-releasing the best versions of these songs, rare freestyles and a few surprises...”
Harlem’s Finest: Return Of The King is the fifth instalment in Mass Appeal’s Legend Has It… series of records by hip-hop trailblazers, following Slick Rick’s Victory, Raekwon’s The Emperor’s New Clothes, Ghostface Killah’s Supreme Clientele 2 and Mobb Deep’s The Infinite.
