Get ready for a hard-hitting homage to classic hip hop. Uncut Gems (released via FULL PLATE) drops today to say I've been excited about it, it would be an understatement.
The 9-track record is the creative child of the Atlanta-based rapper/DJ Dillon and Grammy award-winning beatsmith and legend Diamond D. Fueled by 15 years of friendship and admiration, Uncut Gems follows their previous work on Dillon’s dope 2017 release, Black Tie Affair (2017).
“After continuing to work together and kicking it over the years, it was only natural to do another project and to stretch it out to a full album.” Diamond D shares similar sentiments. "Dillon is a dope emcee who just happens to be a student of the game and a boom-bap head. Us coming together was an easy mesh."
