Dust to Dust (Pete Nice and DJ Richie Rich album)

Dust to Dust is a studio album by former 3rd Bass members Prime Minister Pete Nice and Daddy Rich. It was released on April 27, 1993, via Def Jam Recordings/Columbia Records/Sony Music Entertainment, a year after the breakup of 3rd Bass. The album features numerous disses towards their former bandmate MC Serch. The recording sessions took place in New York at Rampant Recording Studio, Chung King Studios, and LGK Studios. Production was handled by Pete Nice, DJ Richie Rich, The Beatnuts, KMD, and Sam Sever of Downtown Science.

The album found limited success, reaching #171 on the Billboard 200, #50 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums, and #8 on the Heatseekers Albums in the United States. It spawned two singles and corresponding music videos for "Rat Bastard" and "Kick the Bobo," both of which were apparent disses aimed at MC Serch. The "Rat Bastard" video starts with a scene reminiscent of the 1987 film The Untouchables, where Pete Nice is depicted beating an MC Serch lookalike to death with a baseball bat. The video for "Kick the Bobo" starts out as a recreation of a scene from the 1983 film Scarface, with Pete Nice talking to a Tony Montana lookalike. This album also marks the professional debut of indie rap artist Cage. Dust to Dust is now out of print.
