Younglord (a.k.a. Richard Frierson) is an African-American record producer. He was signed to Puff Daddy's Hitmen Production Team in November 1994 at 16 Years old [1] producing for the label's roster including Mase, The Lox, Faith Evans & 112. He has since produced for outside acts such as Virtue, DMX, Lloyd Banks, Veronica & Consequence. Most recently his success was with the Diddy comeback single "Come To Me", which reached Number 9 on The U.S. Billboard Hot 100 Singles Sales.

Frierson was also partly responsible for now infamous producer Ryan Leslie's meeting with P. Diddy after Leslie was given a 30-day contract as a music production intern for Frierson. When the two producers created the Beyoncé Knowles song "Keep Giving Your Love To Me" for The Bad Boys 2 Soundtrack, Ryan was asked to meet P. Diddy. [2]
