Big Daddy Kane on Busta Rhymes: "Hands Down, Greatest Flow In Hip-Hop"

Published Fri, March 31, 2023 at 2:09 PM EDT

In a recent interview, Big Daddy Kane explained exactly what he thinks about longtime fan and collaborator, Busta Rhymes. The two were spotted at an event for Omar Epps’ upcoming film, The Devil You Know.

“Let me explain something to you, real talk, real quick. Hands down, greatest flow in Hip-Hop,” Kane said, gesturing toward Busta. “And anybody that wants to dispute me, this is what I want you to do. Listen to the original version of ‘Turn It Up’ from this man. The original version with the Al Green sample.”

The two legends have long shown love to one another. Busta and Kane collaborated on "Slap" also featuring Conway The Machine from Busta's latest EP, The Fuse Is Lit, which dropped late last year.

"I love Kane. He’s a hero to me," Busta told Billboard at the time. "We rocked on his record, and he gifted us with his presence on this record," Bust said. "And it felt like it was deemed worthy to make this f–king moment eventful, because it was eventful to me. And I felt like this shit was eventful to the culture. And let that s–t speak to everyone it needs to speak to — young, in-between, demo-wise, elder statesmen. N—s ain’t seen Kane in a long time in this likeness. Big don, godfather shit, stepping out the Phantom, furred up, diamond’d up, hard bottoms, tuxes, looking like Marlon Brando in The Godfather, as he should look. He don’t just look great, he will still f–k y’all n—as up, bar-for-bar. We invigorate the God, give him his flowers, and let him feel inspired, that much more incentivized to want to go in and probably even give us a new motherf–king project. That’s what it is for me."
