I’m the authentic poet to get lyrical For you to beat me, it’s gonna take a miracle. - Big Daddy Kane

To me, Big Daddy Kane is still today one of the best rappers. I would put Big Daddy Kane against any rapper in a battle. Jay-Z, Nas, Eminem, any of them. I actually met Jay-Z with Kane. Kane brought Jay-Z over to my house. But nobody wants to see Kane. I could take 'Raw' right now and put it up against any record [from today]. Kane is one of the most incredible lyricists, the most real cat if you ever get a chance to meet him. Straight out of Brooklyn, soft-spoken and he will devour you on the mic. I don't want to try to out-rap Big Daddy Kane. I may out-dress him, but I'm not gonna try to out-rap him. Big Daddy Kane can rap circles around cats.

Blow up the scenery, I reign supremer, see You need a savior to save ya, so lean on me

Rappers stepping to me they want to get some But I’m the Kane, so yo, you know the outcome Another victory They can’t get with me So pick a BC date cause you’re history
