Duncגs rich, full-bodied production serves as a natural backdrop to Toineגs technically astute rhymes, layered deep with smooth instrumentation evocative of such luminaries as J. Dilla, DJ Jazzy Jeff, and Pete Rock, each of whom shaped the classic hip hop sounds of Duncגs childhood. Toineגs energy and bright delivery belie wisdom beyond his years, inspiring deep reflection as easily as sharp battle fare and complex rhyme schemes. Maintaining a close working relationship with PG neighbor Oddisee and assuming a strong presence in the collective atmosphere of the DMVגs hip hop scene, DTMD appeared separately on MMGגs גHelpless Dreamerג compilation, Toine rhyming on גDifferent Nowג and Dunc producing Stik Figaגs גFrom the Top.ג Now the debut album Makin' Dollas hits itunes for an early pre-release exclusive!

Yeah been bumping this album all week, actually heard someone else playing You out of their whip yesterday....DMV really getting love from its own people now....I'm almost proud and shocked that hip-hop is having a rebirth in this area and in the way it has.

A lot of good projects came out this year from the DMV that won't get recognized until later. But yeah, DTMD is definitely influenced by that whole Dilla era and they got Low Budget (Kev Brown, Oddisee, Kaimbr, Roddy Rod,etc.) as their mentors.

They definitely take influence the Dilla era. Part of this album is a definite tribute to it. Hope to see them progress and make more moves. They've got a good future ahead of them.
