Quote the www.DITCENT.com: Lord Finesse is a legendary MC-turned-producer who has produced tracks for Notorious B.I.G. ("Suicidal Thoughts" off of 1994's Ready to Die) and Dr. Dre ("The Message" off of 1999's 2001). As a young MC, he would travel to any borough in New York to battle their best rapper and win. He shopped his demo to various record labels and eventually dropped the first of several records, his 1990 classic Funky Technician. The record had a few tracks produced by his good friend Diamond (formerly Diamond D), a former member of the rap group Ultimate Force. In the mid-'80s, Diamond D was scratching on turntables at late-night park parties, often competing with area top DJs (Showbiz was once his nemesis.) Diamond also spent time DJing with the world famous Jazzy Jay, whom he first met in 1987. In 1992, Diamond transitioned from DJing to taking on the role of producer and MC, and showcased his diverse talents on his debut album "Stunts, Blunts and Hip Hop".
Enjoy!
