Lord Finesse- Keep It Flowing ft. A.G. (Large Professor Remix) (PREORDER)
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 its own dedicated release, backed by the instrumental making its 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 its stripped-back grit and technical precision.
In the years that followed, Finesse's reputation only grew — his production fingerprints on records by The Notorious B.I.G. 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.
