Diamond D is currently doing concerts with Sadat X in support of Stunts, Blunts and Hip Hop’s recent 25th anniversary. In the meantime, the Bronx, New Yorker and founding member of Diggin’ In The Crates is still supplying heat for up-and-coming talent. D was there early for producing Fat Joe, Lord Finesse, Mos Def, and others.

Enter Dillon, a Michigan-born Atlanta, Georgia-based MC (where Diamond also spends a bulk of his time). He and the Grammy Award-winning producer recently released EP, FP009 – Black Tie Affair. Diamond cooks up all the tracks. Dillon raps and jumps behind the decks for the five-song project’s scratches too.

“Feast” is a great sampling of the EP. Diamond D lays down a simplistic, but full-on Diggin’ In The Crates-certified beat. The BX O.G. supports Dillon and appears in the video that further plays off an MC for the people living his best life in high society. James Bond flicks may also be an inspiration to the life of well-dressed leisure.
