Customer Ratings & Reviews

Big Daddy Kane is one of the most gifted MCs to grace the mic, up there with the likes of Rakim. Kane represented what an artists should do on the mic. It's too bad that no MCs flow like this today, but with Kane's first album, it should come as no surprise that his influence was felt in some other MCs after him, namely Jay-Z. But with Long Live The Kane, Kane made his mark in hip hop forever. Here's the review: Album Highlights: The entire album, there's no filler here. Production: Thumbs up. Marley Marl on the boards, nuff said. Lyrics and Subject Matter: Thumbs up. Outside of Rakim and Kool G.Rap, NO ONE else was THIS nice with the words during the Golden Age of hip hop in the 80s. Originality: Thumbs Up. The Last Word: One CLASSIC album. This is true Big Daddy Kane in all of his glory. He truly represented with his lyrical skills, sense of dropping ILL metaphors, and clever delivery. He won't be forgotten. A STRONG RECOMMENDATION for this album. You won't be disappointed.

i could listen to kane all day,this was the 80's hottest music. this album would turn partys out. they don't make music like this anymore. anyway i don't care how old this is, it still jam for me. i would highly recommend this album to alot of youngsters to go back in time to enjoy true hiphop. there are others such as run dmc,ll cool j just to name a few. but thats all for now, peace out
