12" - 1997 - Lennox Hill Records
This record is the only release by the group The Professionals. It was released in 1997 on Lennox Hill Records and includes the singles "Sit Back Relax" and "Where The Players At", produced by Gary Salmon. The Professionals was a group formed in 1996 by three rappers (Larry Davis, Prince a.k.a. Prince of Thieves and Stress Wun a.k.a. Stress One) from Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn, who were all solo artists at the time.

They were brought together thanks to one of the members of Junior M.A.F.I.A., Chico Delvec (RIP), who also founded the label Lennox Hill Records. An EP was supposed to be released after the 12", but unfortunately it never saw the light of day. Both tracks are really good and make this record an essential addition to your collection.
