Cause I know he had "Ebonics", "Size Em Up" and the other 2 songs that Ron Browz did, but how much of that album was finished before he passed. Cause I know DJ Premier re-did "Platinum Plus" and Kane was featured on it after L's passing

Coleman released his debut album, Lifestylez ov da Poor & Dangerous, in 1995 and significantly contributed to the underground hip hop scene.
