Funky Technician was a damn good album.And yeah, Lord Finesse is severely underrated. Not only was he a great lyricist, but his production was also great. He was the complete package. It's really weird as to why he was so underrated.

[steventelfer]

Lord finesse is one of the best rappers and producers out here!

[andrewdix]

Every episode of crate diggers I've seen has been excellent. All of the DJs/artists have shown their love of music and records with zero attitude or elitism.

“Rap without Finesse is like life without oxygen”- Hip 2 Da Game. One of my favorite rappers with that smooth flow. The other one is CL Smooth.

[Dirtymoney]

Holy shit, this dude lives in my neighborhood and I see him all the time. I had no idea that he is in the music industry,

[MAARTN]

Damn, I could listen to his stories for hours and hours and hours and hours. One of the realest out there for sure!

[EARART]

The amount of times I've watched this

[therealevilgenius]

"The Funky Technician" and "Return of the Funky Man" are 2 of my favorite records. Both are classics to me.

[MAARTN]

I would like to see PM Dawn's collection after hearing that story..

[AFORHTV]

Word. Dude is one of the most underrated MC/Producer double threats in the game.

[corc]

I think i finally found out what track he sampled this Magnum record on. Re-listening through a lot of the Funky Man's production, i'm 100% pretty sure he sampled the song "Which Doctor's Brew" for the bassline of Big L's Street Struck. He definitely filtered out the low end, re-arranged parts from the sample and probably did some pitching.

[BlakkSteel]

The record dealer that Finesse is speaking of that held up the record collection for Prince B (PM Dawn), was Pittsburgh's own Jerry, of Jerry's Records. A LOT of producers quietly come through here. An unnamed producer bought Jerry's ENTIRE 45 room.

[IsaiahDusseauGaming]
