Hip Hop icon and one of the genres most distinctive voices, Big L returns with Harlem’s Finest: Return Of The King, the latest release in Mass Appeal’s ‘Legend Has It…’ series.Features guest appearances from Nas, JAY Z, Mac Miller, Joey Bada$$, Method Man and more

The album is intended to both preserve and elevate Big Ls legacy as one of hip-hops most gifted lyricists and is the result of Mass Appeal, Nas and the rappers family and estate all working together to ensure its completion. The artists 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 yall to hear what weve 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 werent 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…
