RIP Tony D | Best Of Poor Righteous Teachers
April 6th, 2009
Rest In Peace
Anthony “Tony D” Depula
Many,like myself, didn’t really know his name but we knew his work. Primarily his production on the classic “Thinking of A Master Plan” by YZ and Poor Righteous Teachers albums and King Sun. As well as some uncredited work with Naughty by Nature and others. In Memory of Tony D DJ Books wanted me to repost his Best Of PRT tunes. So not only check this mix but read an 2008 interview Tony D did with Martini & Jopparelli HERE

The sound that Tony D and PRT created is classic. I never knew about them before, but I can hear the huge influence they’ve made in hip hop over the past decade, especially with the Fugees.
good post

Man PRT… classic material, anyone in & around New York in the 90’s will probably overwhelmingly vouch for them. I didn’t know Tony D before this post either, but if he is responsible for crafting the PRT sound, his music will live on for a long time.
