Lord Finesse

Le rappeur hardcore et producteur de hip-hop Lord Finesse, connu aussi comme The Funky Technician, de son vrai nom Robert Hall Jr., est né à New York. Il a débuté sa carrière musicale en tant que membre de Rhyme Syndicate et a produit des albums pour des groupes réputés comme Notorious B.I.G., Noreaga et Dr. Dre. Sous le pseudonyme de Lord Finesse, Hall a sorti l'album de hip-hop “Return of the Funky Man”, en 1991, avec Andre the Giant comme chanteur invité. Plus prolifique en tant que producteur, il a quand même sorti d'autres disques solo, parmi lesquels “The Awakening” (1996).
