In tribute to Black History Month the Finisher Mister Cee will have four legends in hip hop (Pete Rock, ?uestlove, Dj Premier, & Q-tip) guest DJ on the Throwback at Noon, every Friday in the month of February. In a press statement Cee said "I chose these DJ's to be a guest on my show because number 1, they all came from the 90's era of hip hop & the music they made at that time was positive and uplifting and  number 2,  all four DJ’s are still relevant today".

Pete Rock
@PeteRock

Listen Below:Pete Rock, is an American record producer, DJ and rapper. He rose to prominence in the early 1990s as one half of the critically acclaimed group Pete Rock & CL Smooth. After the duo went their separate ways, Rock continued with a solo career that has garnered him worldwide respect, though little in the way of mainstream success. Along with groups such as Stetsasonic, A Tribe Called Quest, The Roots and Gang Starr, Rock played a major role in the merging of elements from jazz into hip hop music (also known as jazz rap). He is widely recognized as one of the greatest hip hop producers of all time, and is often mentioned alongside DJ Premier, the RZA, and J Dilla as one of the mainstays of 1990s East Coast hip hop production. Pete Rock is also the older brother and younger cousin, respectively, of rappers Grap Luva and the late Heavy D.
