Biography
2nd II None is a hip hop duo from Compton, California, consisting of cousins KK ( L. McDonald) and Tha Dee a.k.a Gangsta D (Deon Barnett). Closely associated with producer-rapper DJ Quik, the pair released their self-titled debut on Profile Records in 1991 and Classic 220 on Arista in 1999, followed by the independent album Compton Muzik in 2014. Their songs “Be True to Yourself” and “If You Want It” brought national notice in the early 1990s, and “Up ’N Da Club” later appeared in the 2000 The Sopranos episode “Full Leather Jacket.”
