Easy Mo Bee

Easy Mo Bee, born Osten Harvey Jr. in New York City, is the kind of craftsman I gravitate toward: the one quietly present at every turning point. His range alone astonishes me, producing for Big Daddy Kane and even jazz legend Miles Davis. But it is his work on The Notorious B.I.G.'s debut Ready to Die that cements his place in history; he helped shape the very texture of that era's sound. I have always found the behind-the-scenes architects more compelling than the spotlight, and Mo Bee is a perfect example of an unsung figure whose fingerprints are everywhere.
