Sure, I’m a Finesse fan. He’s the only rapper I ever asked to sign anything, so when I had a chance to get my hands on the original press kit for his seminal Return of the Funkyman, best believe I went in.
You know how everyone always talks about the Purple Tape? I feel that way about the Funkyman tape, which included the incredible, exclusive bonus cut below…
Lord Finesse – ‘Hands In The Air, Mouth Shut’
All the party people say ‘is’nt he somethin’!!
Is this a Showbiz production? Sounds like it, and he name-checks him, but does it specify in the liner notes?
Finesse is Prob my #1 on mic and boards to this day!…
I was actually at this concert — happened to be on Tokyo on business, figured out I’d catch Finesse. But I mostly went because Kane was there (BDK my personal favorite). Kane killed it, Scoob was there, he did a dance routine, then came back out at the end with Finesse and the band. Unfortunately they didn’t allow any pictures or video. It was a great show all around. Thanks for posting.
Oh man what a track!
I love Finesse ’cause he says ‘shit’ more than ANY other rapper…and he flows better over Scooby Doo loops than anyone ever. Ever.
@Elijah:
Yeah it’s a Showbiz beat.
keep that tape cover forever man…
Finesse has a graf hand style!
