Not a NY breh but was heavily immersed in 90's NY hiphop. Pitts is Puff's double (facially). Came up wit him since the Howard days, was BIG's manager and ran Bystorm records.
Don Pooh was Foxy manager, another promoter turn exec from the era.
Them dudes turned hip-hop into the industry it is now with labels, real budgets and success.

Don Pooh used to be in the streets. But that's neither here nor there. He made the transition into the music biz. Now he's a successful restaurateur.
