Description: Lamont Coleman, known professionally as Big L, was an American rapper and songwriter. Emerging from Harlem, New York in the early to mid-1990s, Coleman became well known amongst underground hip-hop fans for his freestyling ability, and was eventually signed to Columbia Records, where, in 1995, he released his debut album, Lifestylez ov da Poor & Dangerous. On February 15, 1999, Coleman was shot nine times by an unknown assailant in East Harlem, New York, his hometown and passed away. Children of the Corn was an American hip-hop group formed in the 1993, consisting of neighborhood friends and fellow Harlem rappers Big L, Killa Cam, Murda Ma$e, Herb McGruff, and Bloodshed. The group's name is a play on words; it is short for Children of the Corner, and also references Stephen King's 1984 film of the same name. Big L was the founder as he pushed Mase and Cam'ron off the streets & into the studio, as well as Bloodshed, who was Cam'ron cousin, with the last member of the group being Herb McGruff. They released over 30 songs under the name Children of the Corn, as they tried for a record deal. They got paid any way they could, rhyming for local DJs & selling mixtapes out of their trunks. The group disbanded after the death of Bloodshed in a car crash on 3/2/97 at age 21 and the murder of Big L on 2/15/99 at age 24. Even before the group disbanded, each of the group members had pursued their solo careers. Big L was signed with Columbia, Mase with Bad Boy, Cam'ron with Epic and McGruff with Uptown Records.
