He released his debut album on Cold Chillin' Records in the early summer of 1988 called Long Live the Kane, which featured the hit ' Ain't No Half Steppin''. The backronym 'King Asiatic Nobody's Equal' is often applied to his moniker. His sense of style is renowned and set a number of late-1980s and early-1990s hip hop trends ( high-top fades hairstyles, velour suits, and four-finger rings).

Kane is known for his ability to syncopate over faster hip hop beats, and despite his asthmatic condition, he is acknowledged as one of the pioneering masters of fast rhyming.

The name Big Daddy Kane came from a variation on Caine, David Carradine's character from the TV show Kung Fu (1972-1975), and a character called 'Big Daddy' whom Vincent Price played in the film Beach Party (1963). Kane signed with Tyrone Williams's (Marl's manager) and Len Fichtelberg's Cold Chillin' Records label in 1987 and debuted the same year with the 12' single 'Raw', which was an underground hit. Both eventually became important members of the Queens-based Juice Crew, a collective headed by renowned producer Marley Marl. In 1984, Kane became friends with Biz Markie, and he would co-write some of Biz's best-known lyrics. Rolling Stone ranked his song ' Ain't No Half-Steppin'' number 25 on its list of The 50 Greatest Hip-Hop Songs of All Time, calling him 'a master wordsmith of rap's late- golden age and a huge influence on a generation of MCs'. He is widely regarded as one of the most influential and skilled MCs in hip hop. Antonio Hardy (born September 10, 1968), better known by his stage name Big Daddy Kane, is an American rapper, producer and actor who began his career in 1986 as a member of the Juice Crew.
