Lord G

about

Rapper and producer LORD G is considered a legend and icon to many in both Detroit and Los Angeles' hip hop underground communities. The Detroit native was first heard under the name Eagle GT, as a member of D.O.P. (Detroit's Original Posse), one of the earliest rap groups to emerge on the Detroit hip hop scene in 1989. After signing with the now defunct recording label Scorcher Records, the group, which also included Darren D and Dj D, released it's first singles entitled "Let The Record Play", "I Ain't Buying It", and "Keep On Movin'" which featured the smooth melodic beats of Soul2Soul. After having contract disputes with their record label, the group changed their name and became "Lords Of Logic" and Eagle GT became Lord G. The "Lord's" joined forces with other local artists, MC Doggin' D, Dj Tink Thomas aka "The Funky Messiah", and Mr Mill, to create the triumphant finale style party song "Feel Al'right" which featured 7 of Detroit's hottest MC's. The collaborative effort seemed to be paying off when the group was invited to perform with Eric B and Rakim, but soon after, the group's members decided to explore different directions and pursue individual projects. With Detroit's hip hop scene looking like a dead end for aspiring rappers, Lord G made his way out west and was soon discovered by Dr. Dre through Death Row's music director Tony Green, who was also a hometown friend of Lord G. Now working with Dr. Dre at Death Row, Lord G, who was to be the first positive rapper
