talib whut´s good this your friend felipe for me it´s either kool g rap and dj polo's wanted dead or alive(if not mistaken) and cormega's album megaphilosophy
The tracks he ended up finishing for Paul Cee after his demise for Rakim's "Let The Rhythm Hit Em" album was dope as well as his own beats he supplied on the album. Ra and Large Pro need to do a whole album together.
Large Pro has always been my favorite producer. This guy just oozes New York. His beats have followed me growing up in the Hip Hop scene starting the early 90's. Pure class and an extremely likeable guy.
Hip Hop's Underrated. Underrated as a producer and as an artist. I'm glad Talib had him on the podcast. He's definitely one of the best that never gets discussed. I'm glad you gave him his flowers Talib. Very well respected
Just saw Large Pro on the Geto Boys podcast last week and it was DOPE! Love to see Extra P. getting the love he so rightfully deserves in the culture! A Living Legend In The Game!!! 💪🏾
Large Professor is down to earth, humble and shows love to everyone. Legendary producer to say the least. Salute to A.L. for being part of the interview.
I swear it takes me hours to get through these interviews with all the necessary pauses. Currently pausing to discover Cormega’s Mega Philosophy from 2014. This shit bangs. I appreciate the jewels as always!
I’ve been waiting for this man to grace Kweli’s People’s Party since it became a podcast. He is easily the most underrated and under appreciated icon in hip hop culture. It doesn’t get more New York than the LP.
FFS Someone at The Source didn't know Jazzy Jeff was a DJ? He was ONE OF THE BEST. EVER. HE INVENTED SCRATCHES! He STILL rocks a crowd. FFS what does a legend have to do to continue to get respect?
This Man is HIPHOP personified. Endless contributions to the culture. Breakin Atoms is one of my absolute fav albums. Masterpiece. Mad props to the legendary Large Professor for all of his musical blessings.🙏🏼🔥💾🔥🎤🔥🔊 Peace.
We need at least 2 hours to really delve into the career catalog of Large Professor and understand his significance to hip-hop. While I appreciate you Kweli and the brothas giving him love and reciting his lyrics (and the lovefest is well warranted......trust me, I get it), I felt like those moments disrupted the flow of the interview. I say this, respectfully, as a fan of the podcast. Either way, I thoroughly enjoyed the interview! I just wished I was able to learn more about his catalog.
He even "TALKS" in Hip-Hop voice, great interview, especially when he was explaining how different ethic groups all became part of hip hop early on when he first came around.
Streets of New York is one of the best storytelling songs ever . Blind man plays Sax / tune called the arm's of my moms show railroad tracks . G Rap for East Coast gangsta hip hop is like Ice T for the West Coast .
Ayo... I can't express how much this interview and others... like this one mean... but I'll try. First, the way that I feel, being a child of hip hop who came up living and embracing representing the culture in everything that I did in life... this interview has me in my feels 🎉. To see brothers of Extra P's caliber - hip hop royalty almost seems cliche - get his flowers 💐 is truly beautiful - AND important!!! And... Talib's interviews represent US telling OUR stories!!! US... you get it!?!? Because, as time progresses... hip hop - like other aspects of our experience - has struggled with being white-washed... sanitized... altered. But, through efforts like this... 'nuff said 🎉.
Large Pro is the coolest dude in Hip-Hop, and is up there with Primo as my favorite producers. Interview would have been much better if y'all would have let my man finish his sentences without any interruptions.
Shout out to Xtra P, Queens Royalty. his verse on the Organized Konfusion Stress Remix hit me hard. Especially when I was riding the 7 on my way to Bowne. "Now ain't nothing deeper than having to throw a nigga in the sleeper For stress, and take that shit from Large Profess Cause I be on the train trying to maintain Getting lowered in the hole while the record man gain And it make me want to sting somebody with the shottie Cause I can't relate to living less than great So while I make a fat beat to eat Some of my mans from John Bowne High School is sleeping in the street"
Yo what's good Kweli! Thank you for your contributions to this culture and lifestyle we call Hip Hop and thank you for showcasing a legend and one of my top 10 producers Extra P. This mans music has kept me goin through out my life and thanks to him and Main Source, I'm still a happy man at 52. Shout out to excellence, word up. Peace & Blessings
Plus... one last thing that I want hip hop headz of EVERY generation to realize... Take your favorite emcees - whoever they may be. Just know that they were inspired by someone. That are standing on someone's shoulders who inspired them. So there REALLY is no viable debate on who is the best because it ALL is from the "pool of black genius" that Donny Hathaway so eloquently ... expressed. That is NOT a slight against all of the others who were right there when hip hop was bubbling because Extra P is saying... it was all love... all family. But, to be clear - there is a THROUGHLINE - that connects all of US... all of our culture... all of our music... all of our existence. And it is a beautiful thing to behold ❤. Thank you to everyone involved with this platform Talib. It matters and I love it. I watch it with my children - then start teaching them by watching TH-cam videos of the music being discussed 😊.
Large Pro Mad Respect I Played Looking At The Front Door For My Wife To Express Myself And She Cried Needless To Say We Were Divorced By 96 I Got Married Young At 22 🤣🤣🤣
Facts…..I remember visiting NYC back in the late 80’s & 90’s when Flushing Queens was crazy….I visited NYC two summers ago to visit my wife’s family & Flushing just didn’t feel like it did in the 80’s & 90’s.
Truth be told, the Bronx is where hip hop is from, but Queens, New York, is the Mecca of hip hop, and Large Professor representing to the fullest. By the way, I fell in love with the Atlanta hip hop from its inception and I have nothing but love for the artists of Atlanta because ATL brought out the fire.
Large Pro let's go! What's your favorite Large Professor project?
talib whut´s good this your friend felipe for me it´s either kool g rap and dj polo's wanted dead or alive(if not mistaken) and cormega's album megaphilosophy
Illmatic sparked it for me. All his collabs with Nas. Raw production
breaking atoms, 1st class
The tracks he ended up finishing for Paul Cee after his demise for Rakim's "Let The Rhythm Hit Em" album was dope as well as his own beats he supplied on the album.
Ra and Large Pro need to do a whole album together.
Can't pick just one since we from the same building in tha lanz lol #Waselanz
Hip hop wouldn't be the same without this man. Respect.
M.C. Lyte said the same @rotweilerscholar1181
Large Pro has always been my favorite producer. This guy just oozes New York. His beats have followed me growing up in the Hip Hop scene starting the early 90's. Pure class and an extremely likeable guy.
Absolutely.
I love Large Pros energy, dudes swagger is straight up HipHop
Maaaan, this should've been 2 hours cause Large Pros contributions n stories are priceless. Glad you had him on here. 🙌🏼🙌🏼
What a great time to be alive when you can witness all these legends reminiscing about making the tracks we used to listen to 30 years ago
I love witnessing Hip Hop heads geeking out over the art form man. Absolutely love it
Extra P is underrated as both an MC as well as a producer!
Facts

Peace to Large Pro for being not just a legend in hip hop and for acknowledging the Latino contribution to the culture.
We need a Nas & Large Pro complete album
we need pics of your sister
I agree
Got to add Qtip to that bro!
We still need that Dr. Dre and Primo album with Nas called Nasdaq. It's been promised about as long as Detox has been.
Nas never give the fans what we want it’s just what he feels like putting out.
Just saw Large Pro on the Geto Boys podcast last week and it was DOPE! Love to see Extra P. getting the love he so rightfully deserves in the culture! A Living Legend In The Game!!! 💪🏾
Bro I need to watch that one.
@@alken355its good. def peep that.
Some of the tightest cleanest drums ever, in his production. crazy samples! ill MC too.
Thx for this yall!! Large Pro is a big reason why I started Mc producing n collecting vinyl like a psycho . Big ups Large Pro !!
Large Professor is down to earth, humble and shows love to everyone. Legendary producer to say the least. Salute to A.L. for being part of the interview.
Happy to see this interview. He doesn't get the shine that he deserves. Very comprehensive. Drink Champs interview went off the rails per usual.
They just kept interrupting each other!
Some people are OGs in the game and some people ARE the game.
Large Pro ain’t an OG in Hip Hop… He IS Hip Hop.
This man is New York to the fullest
Streets of NY, enough said! A Genius, may GOD bless Large P. and his family.
PEACE 7
So glad fhey bought up GMV. HE needs to be honored. He created the blend.
I swear it takes me hours to get through these interviews with all the necessary pauses. Currently pausing to discover Cormega’s Mega Philosophy from 2014. This shit bangs. I appreciate the jewels as always!
I’ve been waiting for this man to grace Kweli’s People’s Party since it became a podcast. He is easily the most underrated and under appreciated icon in hip hop culture. It doesn’t get more New York than the LP.
all of this was love and was needed. Respect fully the Large Professor. Talk about those early un-credited classics!!!
Breaking Atoms is one of the most classic albums in hip hop history
One of my favorite interviews so far. Just real hip hop being talked about and shared freely. Like the barbershop 🙂🙂🙂🙂
FFS Someone at The Source didn't know Jazzy Jeff was a DJ? He was ONE OF THE BEST. EVER. HE INVENTED SCRATCHES! He STILL rocks a crowd. FFS what does a legend have to do to continue to get respect?
Large Pro is legendary, and versatile, he’s dope with the beats and verses, no question
Professor Greene sounds crazy. That’s a seed that needs planting. Had the honor of meeting this legend at A-1 a few summers ago. Very humble and kind.
This Man is HIPHOP personified. Endless contributions to the culture.
Breakin Atoms is one of my absolute fav albums. Masterpiece.
Mad props to the legendary Large Professor for all of his musical blessings.🙏🏼🔥💾🔥🎤🔥🔊
Peace.
Large Pro was in charge of a major part of the soundtrack to my high school days
That Common Resurrection Extra P remix is absolutely incredible. Still to this day it gives me chills bro
Large Professors lyrics are legendary, also his musical production. 🔥🔥👊🏾
Large Pro uuuuweee, one of my most respected headz👏👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥
This is a great way to start the day
Much Respect to Large Professor!
Much respect for Large Professor 🇿🇲👍🏽👏🏾🙏🏾
Excellent interview skills from Talib
He epitomizes New York 💯💪🏿
We need at least 2 hours to really delve into the career catalog of Large Professor and understand his significance to hip-hop.

I say this, respectfully, as a fan of the podcast. Either way, I thoroughly enjoyed the interview! I just wished I was able to learn more about his catalog.
Nope, it was annoying and Tk need to check that. I wanted to hear LP tell his story and TK kept interrupting him.
Thank you for bringing Large Pro in!
Kweli n Large Pro album is a MUST
If you were to cut Large Pro i swear New York would bleed out of him...The Gawd got that NYC essence in his DNA 🗽
An Absolute Legend and Still One Of The Rappers I Listen To The Most!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯
The mad scientist
🎯
He even "TALKS" in Hip-Hop voice, great interview, especially when he was explaining how different ethic groups all became part of hip hop early on when he first came around.
Large Pro is my favorite Rapper and Producer...out of Queens...word
My main man Large Pro...one of the originators of RAW hip hop....he is new York city when it was gritty...much luv
Salute the Goat! Flushing’s Finest!
This Legend deserves every flower we can find for him.
Streets of New York is one of the best storytelling songs ever . Blind man plays Sax / tune called the arm's of my moms show railroad tracks . G Rap for East Coast gangsta hip hop is like Ice T for the West Coast .
This is LEGENDARY 🔥
If Nas should do a whole album with one producer it should be Large Pro even Premier said that’s Nas’s tru sound
Dope when premo kalled in and they chopped it up legendary fellas!
Large Pro contribution to the culture is so monumental! And he is so humble.
Ayo... I can't express how much this interview and others... like this one mean... but I'll try.

dude one of my biggest inspirations. Large P top 5 for hip hop for me!! A True Living Legend!
Large Pro is the coolest dude in Hip-Hop, and is up there with Primo as my favorite producers. Interview would have been much better if y'all would have let my man finish his sentences without any interruptions.
Large pro one of the best producers of all time 🔥🔥🔥 nas the greatest to ever touch the mic.

Shout out to Xtra P, Queens Royalty. his verse on the Organized Konfusion Stress Remix hit me hard. Especially when I was riding the 7 on my way to Bowne.
"Now ain't nothing deeper than having to throw a nigga in the sleeper
For stress, and take that shit from Large Profess
Cause I be on the train trying to maintain
Getting lowered in the hole while the record man gain
And it make me want to sting somebody with the shottie
Cause I can't relate to living less than great
So while I make a fat beat to eat
Some of my mans from John Bowne High School is sleeping in the street"
Shout out to the legend Large Professor…..love that joint he did with Pete Rock ( The Rap World ) 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏🙏
Great interview 🔥

10:28 "It's more a lunchable." 😂
Large Pro is my spirit animal. Great talk, everybody

Pure joy watching this. Absolute legend, this man.
Large Pro Mad Respect I Played Looking At The Front Door For My Wife To Express Myself And She Cried Needless To Say We Were Divorced By 96 I Got Married Young At 22 🤣🤣🤣
Dope content !!! I'm a huge fan of Large Professor !!!
Now my day can start
A true NYC B-boy. A Great in his own right
Him and preemo got the same born day
In the dictionary, next to the word “HipHop” is Large Pro’s picture.
Great interview love Large Pro
Pete Rock, probably my favorite Hip Hop producer of all time, gets love from Extra P everytime! Damn, two of da greats!
Flushing, Queens! Growing up in Flushing in the 90’s was amazing. Flushing now is wack as hell but 80s and 90s Flushing was where it was at.
Facts…..I remember visiting NYC back in the late 80’s & 90’s when Flushing Queens was crazy….I visited NYC two summers ago to visit my wife’s family & Flushing just didn’t feel like it did in the 80’s & 90’s.
Large P...is royalty
Dope!!!
Great episode! Large Pro is that dude...
Truth be told, the Bronx is where hip hop is from, but Queens, New York, is the Mecca of hip hop, and Large Professor representing to the fullest. By the way, I fell in love with the Atlanta hip hop from its inception and I have nothing but love for the artists of Atlanta because ATL brought out the fire.
LOL@"LOOKIN' LIKE A YOUNG CORNELL WEST ON THEM DRUM MACHINES"..
Yoooooooooooooo!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯🙏
