    He sported a high-top fade in the 80s.
    He is a member of the controversial Five Percent Nation faction of Islam.
    He overdid the ladies' man shtick, which seems to have undermined his rap credibility in the 90s.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He rapped fast despite having asthma.
    In addition to the expected rappers, he collaborated with Patti LaBelle, Barry White and Quincy Jones.

    Ice-T said, '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.'
