MC Shy D (born Peter Jones) is the Bronx-born cousin of <a href="spotify:artist:7cg61q8kK8jlFi8TKKw70p">Afrika Bambaataa</a>. He began on Luther Campbell's label in 1987 with Got to Be Tough and Comin' Correct in '88. After one more record (1989's Don't Sweat Me), he went through a lean period but rebounded in 1993 with The Comeback. It was a more artistically ambitious release, with more contemporary production and a lean, refined rapping style. Another long hiatus preceded the appearance of Recordnize, featuring DJ Smurf. ~ Ron Wynn, Rovi
