Keep It Flowing Ft A.g. (large Professor Remix) - 7" Single

Lord Finesse's 1990 debut Funky Technician is a cornerstone of New York hip-hop. This limited 7-inch spotlights the Large Professor Remix of "Keep It Flowing" ft. A.G. - presented for the first time as it's own dedicated release, backed by the instrumental making it's vinyl debut, and housed in a heavyweight glossy jacket. Released in 1990 as Lord Finesse & DJ Mike Smooth, Funky Technician introduced Lord Finesse to the world as one of the most complete artists to emerge from the Bronx hip-hop scene. A razor-sharp MC, elite DJ, and gifted producer, Finesse arrived fully formed - his debut showcasing a command of flow, timing, and boom-bap construction that few could match. Produced largely by Diamond D, DJ Premier and Showbiz, the album stands today as a cornerstone of New York's golden era, revered for it's stripped-back grit and technical precision. In the years that followed, Finesse's reputation only grew - his production fingerprints on records by The Notorious BIG and Dr. Dre, and widely credited with bringing Big L into the spotlight; to know Lord Finesse is to understand a significant thread running through the fabric of 90s hip-hop. "Keep It Flowing" was a standout from Funky Technician, featuring a then-emerging A.G. in an early connection that predated Showbiz & A.G. as an official group, and when Finesse developed remix work around the album, he brought in Large Professor - who had already delivered something extraordinary on another track from the project - to reimagine it; this 45 is the dedicated home of that remix, backed by the instrumental.
