Having produced one third of Nas' generation-defining Illmatic, Large Professor's place on the pantheon of hip-hop heavyweights is already etched in stone. When you add in his groundbreaking debut as a member of Main Source - or the fact that he has collaborated with luminaries like Pete Rock, A Tribe Called Called Quest, Busta Rhymes, Mobb Deep, Masta Ace, and Big Daddy Kane - it's crystal clear that the man's influence towers high above the history of the hip hop. With Fat Beats Records' release of Re: Living, Large Professor builds on his already impressive discography with an entirely self-produced record that delivers all the crisp drums, razor-sharp scratches, and innovative up-rock grooves that define his signature sound.
