Lamont Coleman (May 30, 1974 – February 15, 1999), known professionally as Big L, was an American rapper.He is widely regarded as one of the greatest and most lyrical rappers of all time, and is known for helping to pioneer horrorcore. Emerging from Harlem, New York in the early to mid-1990s, Coleman became well known amongst underground hip-hop fans for his freestyling ability, and was eventually signed to Columbia Records, where he released his debut album, Lifestylez ov da Poor & Dangerous in 1995 and is now considered by many fans as a classic album.On February 15, 1999, Coleman was shot nine times and killed by an unknown assailant in a drive-by shooting in his hometown of Harlem. Noted for his use of wordplay, multiple writers at AllMusic, HipHopDX and The Source have praised Coleman for his lyrical ability, and he has also been described as "one of the most auspicious storytellers in hip hop history."Regarding Coleman's legacy, Nas said on MTV, “He scared me to death.When I heard that on tape, I was scared to death.I said, ’Yo, it’s no way I can compete if this is what I gotta compete with.'”
