Lord Finesse

Lord Finesse might be best known as the leader of the D.I.T.C. Finesse started out producer, in 1994 Finesse produced the track "Suicidal Thoughts" For Ready to Die. Currently he and DJ Premier are working on a posthumous Big L album. I forgot how ill he was like most to drop in the second golden age of hip hop Finesse was very underrated.

BABYGRANDE RECORDS SIGNS LEGENDARY D.I.T.C. PRODUCER/EMCEE DIAMOND D--ANNOUNCES OCTOBER 14th NEW LP "THE HUGE HEFNER CHRONICLES"

Legendary Producer/MC/DJ Diamond D, constituent of the seminal collective D.I.T.C. (also included Fat Joe, Big L. & more), has signed a multi-album deal with renowned indie Babygrande Records. His inaugural release with the label will be October 14th's "The Huge Hefner Chronicles," Diamond's third official release and first offering in 3+ years.

A classic and respected talent, Diamond D. got his start as a member of D.I.T.C., but soon parlayed this success into a thriving solo career, which included the release of the widely regarded classic "Stunts Blunts & Hip-Hop" in 1992. His second solo offering, 1997's "Hatred, Passions & Infidelity," featured appearances from such A-list luminaries as Busta Rhymes, Phife Dawg, Pete Rock & more.

Over the years, aside from independently releasing his subsequent two LP's, Diamond has remained an active participant behind the boards, having contributed his trademark style to some of the most iconic records in hip-hop history including The Fugees' "The Score," A Tribe Called Quest's "The Low End Theory," as well as releases by Mos Def, Pharoahe Monch & many more.

With "The Huge Hefner Chronicles," Diamond returns to form, with a record that recalls the nostalgic stylings of the "golden age," while maintaining a contemporary sensibility accessible to the modern day hip-hop head.
