Diamond D Shares Classic Hip-Hop History + Talks New Music | SWAY’S UNIVERSE

[@haroldgonzalez2681]

HEAVILY UNDERRATED Legend Diamond D. He doesn't get no where near the credit he deserves.

[@bxdale83]

We need a DITC documentary. They never get their due. They put in down for the Bronx

[@Janeflame5]

bxdale83 Respect! That would be dope. I was just telling my son about the Bx legend.

[@bxdale83]

@@Janeflame5 Are you from the Bronx. Make sure to educate him because this new generation don't give a f*** about the one's that came before them and paved the way.

[@selfelevation7]

I agree family. I grew up on D.I.T.C. .. word up. a real authentic doc would be crazy. . no doubt

[@Janeflame5]

bxdale83 Yes sir! We listen to Pete Rock, Premier, Easy Mo Bee, Howie Tee and stuff from all the greats from the last golden era. I’m just happy he appreciates and enjoys the good stuff the same way I do... word for word, we rhyme out whole songs together. Raised him right.

[@bxdale83]

Not only are they underappreciated, they predated groups and crews like Wu-Tang Clan, and Boot Camp Clik. Showbiz is one of the originators of the NY Boom Bap sound, Lord Finesse for a time was one of the illest MC's and a dope producer in his own right, Diamond D needs no explanation, AG and OC are two of the most underrated rapper's from NYC. Fat Joe is still relevant. Big L was one of the best to ever do it. How come nobody talks about D.I.T.C.????

[@dorriangrimes]

Love Diamond....DITC RIH BIG L, SHOWBIZ AG. LORD FINESSE...REAL HIP HOP NEVER DIES. JUST RAP.

[@MockManor]

23:45 Thank you Diamond Dee! I’ve always said it since that song was released. “For Pete’s Sake” is the best technically produced Hip Hop track of all time. I study that beat til this day. The layers of samples, the chops, the cadence, the call and response. I could have a 5 hour conversation and breakdown the genius production Pete Rock did on that beat. 👏🏾👏🏾

[@NextUpSounds]

Still got “Stunts, Blunts and Hip-Hop” on repeat

*_EVERYBODY_* check the new Diam Piece album; ton of great tracks on there. Hard to name a favorite but I really liked "Hold Up" ft. Twista and A-F-R-O, and also "Watch Yo Back" ft. some BCC brothas: Buckshot, General Steele, and Rockness Monstah. It's, dare I say it...a classic album.

[@hutch13pbbc]

DOn't forget his work with Liks, XZ, House of Pain. Lord Finesse wit Ice T. DITC X WEST always great. Love hearing about Big L and Freddie Foxxx, too
