He was the coolest nigga around before niggas knew what being the coolest nigga around looked like.

Do was that nigga dude was fly,had the money,niggas knew not to go at him and he had the bitches (Madonna and Naomi prime)

 

[joshrock]

His flattop ruling in '89.

 

[optimistic]

Spitting!!!!

 

[rapmusic]

Complex wordplay, dressing well but still being able to take it to the streets whenever he wanted to

 

[BelovedAfeni]

Confidence, style and substance

Was actually the first place I heard Farrakhan

 

[gee757]

Kane and Rakim both took it to the next level and was raping like no other in the 80's.

 

[Original_Skin]

Pure spitter who could also put on a show

Delivery the coldest

 

[THE_R_]

LYRICALLY SLAYED TRACKS IN A 3 PIECE SUIT

 

[JA_AO]

He is the reason why light skin were played out for some time. I dont think LL was eating when he was in his prime. LL had to wait til BDK mind was focused on Madonna to drop Mama Said Knock You Out

 

[grYmes]

He embraced the ladies man persona yet still kept his credibility as an MC intact. Even though he was judged heavenly by the early '90s with his albums more towards women & R&B hooks, these days it's looked at as a standard for commercial rappers. Kane always seemed a few years ahead of everyone else.

Kane had a really, really, really good run in 1988. He had a couple of singles and videos as well has a couple of b-sides and loosies. He released an album every year for four consecutive years.

He was also a punchline king like Big L.

Here's a forgotten track that Big Daddy Kane did with Rick James and Roxanne Shante in 1988.

In the summer of 1988 Big Daddy Kane had this song (Loosey's Rap), The last verse on The Symphony as well as his album.

The Symphony - Marley Marl feat Master Ace, Craig G, Kool G Rap and Big Daddy Kane


Then in the fall he released a single with the I'll Take You There Remix with The Wrath Of Kane on the flip

Kane was the dapper rapper, started some trends and had niggas coming to school fly instead of the usual jeans and t-shirts all the time, him and Slick Rick
