He is best known as a member of the influential early-90s underground hip-hop group Main Source, and for discovering immensely popular rapper Nas. Large Professor produced much of Nas' first album, Illmatic, which is considered one of the most important albums in hip-hop history. He hails from the borough of Queens, specifically the neighborhood of Flushing.
In 1995, Large was supposed to release his highly anticipated solo album The LP, but it was put on hold until 2003, when a website gave a copy of The LP with the purchase of his first solo hip hop album 1st Class. Although 1st Class did not receive mainstream acceptance, it gained favorable reviews by fans and critics. The album includes guest appearances by Nas, Busta Rhymes, and Q-Tip.
Large is a protege of legendary (now deceased) white hip-hop producer Paul C, with whom he credits for teaching him virtually everything he knows about record production, and the associated technology used for making music, samples, and 'beats'. Large's publishing company is named 'Paul Sea Productions' as a homage to his late mentor.

That's correct , the original album cover has a picture of the globe . However , due to politics with his label at the time , " The LP " album was shelved . After a long legal battle , he was finally able to release it in 2009 . I think only a few copies were printed in 96 on vinyl . If anything , DJ's were probably the only ones who had access to it .

Danny Rodriguez so you went to the school he's talking about in this?
Danny Rodriguez

The thing is this album was JUST released, this albums was done back in the 90's. This was just released in 2009 because the record label originally shelved it. I think this beat is better than Kanye's, actually so much better. Props to Large Pro.

What bout Tyler the creator

I agree, Kanye is a dope producer but not in the same league as Extra P!
MJ Laws
I like Bound2 but Large Pro is giving hip hop history/his autobiography and this is much more hip hop, Bound2 has more of a pop history

Even though I am from Upper Manhattan and The Bronx, This song remind me always go back into my past life on how i grew up in NYC. I always admired Queens.
