Am I the only one that wouldn't classify either as underrated because both had sold lots of albums in their day, and are considered legends now. In the future, people will say the same about Nas and Ice Cube. Underrated, yet both had a period were they dominated their rap era. De La Soul and Naughty came out in a great era of rap when everyone was dropping classics and showing off great skillz. Both in their time were well respect in one of raps greatest eras. Now kids only like what they hear now, so of course they'd pick up a newer artist. Hell if Naughty, De La Soul and Fabolous all released an album today, Fabolous would outsell them both, just like back in 1993 Cypress Hill would outsell both Grandmaster Flash and the Furious 5 and Kurtis Blow. Just happens that way, out of sight, out of mind.
