  • In Episode 2 of Rock The Bells' new series "The Recollect," D.I.T.C.'s own, Diamond D reveals how he accidentally got signed as an MC, how people skills factor into being a producer and how a collective of his producer super friends helped sharpen each other's sound as Hip-Hop was taking off.

    Stunts, Blunts & Hip Hop is a classic. "Diamond D. got props like a cop." I was heavy into the whole DITC around the early '90s. Diamond D., Showbiz & A.G., Big L, Lord Finesse, Buckwild, D-Flow, Party Arty, O.C. and even Fat Joe was down in the beginning. Legendary, underground, NY backpack crew.

    My favorite lyric of all time from 'Show Business' off The Low End Theroy, "Take it from Diamond/It's like mountain climbin'/When it comes to rhymin'/You gotta put your time in."

    This is dope. Love Diamond D. The Dime Tape Vol.1 gets played regularly. These videos are cool and I look forward to more, but the forced captions ain't necessary, but if you're gonna do it, get the names right, respectfully. Lord Finesse, Mos Def & Queen Latifah. These legends deserve that in the very least.

    My goodness Rock The Bells. The least ....I mean really the least *our* culture can do for the LEGENDS of Hip Hop is have correct SPELLING on screen. We are trying to teach the youth right? 1:23 mark, who da heck is 'Ron?'...when Diamond D distinctly said, 'I had RHYMED on one of the demos' smh! Typos for legends is never a good thing. The Hall of Fame didn't miss spell L.L. Cool J on induction day did they?
    2:20 Lord Finesse's moniker changed to Laura Fines? 2:24 Producer Large Professor (Main Source) changed to Lord Professor? Smdh
    We look so sloppy for our legends right now LL.

      probably because Fat Joey burned 🔥 some bridges with him as has been alleged he has done to others in the past Cuban Linx,the late,great Big Pun's family etc
