Schoolly D is the moniker of American rapper Jesse B. Weaver, Jr. from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Musically, Schoolly D and his DJ Code Money came up with electronic hardcore beats. Later on, Schoolly embraced the afrocentric style, working together with KRS-One. He contributed songs and music to many Abel Ferrara films, and "Signifying Rapper" from Smoke Some Kill was used in Ferrara's film Bad Lieutenant.
