[Edit]

A legendary emcee who influenced multiple generations of hip-hop lyricists, Big Daddy Kane got his start in the mid-'80s and was a key player in Marley Marl's Juice Crew, alongside Biz Markie, Roxanne Shanté, MC Shan, and Kool G Rap. His first solo album, Long Live the Kane, was released in 1988 and produced completely by Marley. It was a tremendous hit. With the perfect mix of machine-gun battle raps ("Set It Off"), goofy collabos ("Just Rhymin' with Biz"), super-smooth romance raps ("The Day You're Mine"), and a bravado anthem/crossover single ("Ain't No Half-Steppin'"), it remains a landmark release more than 25 years after the fact. Kane would record for decades to come with various degrees of success, but this remains his finest solo album—showcasing a hyper-lyrical, swagger-centric vibe that will never go out of style, while clearly establishing his rightful place in any G.O.A.T. discussion.
