Young Griff:
i agree...De La Soul is one of the greatest groups ever and never really got the respect they deserved.

Not really a bangin' beat, but a dope beat, and their flow makes the lyrics about 20 times better.  You gotta hear it, it's a song to be heard.  After all that, though, it's just an average De La song, the ones where Plug One is pissed off and wants to act hard are the best, lol.  Shit like

"The instamatic focal point bringing damage to your boroughs
Be some brothers from the east with some beats that be thorough
Got the solar gravitation so I'm bound to pull it
I gets down like brothers are found ducking from bullets
Gun control means using both hands in my land
Where it's all about the cautious livin'
Migrating to a higher form of consequence, compliments
Of strugglin', that shouldn't be notable
Man every word I say should be a hip hop quotable"


He ain't kidding either, tight shit

true, as for me, i might mention de la, but as for naughty by nature this goes for me too...they just don't pop into my head. but then again, i like de la more than nbn..."3 Feet High & Rising" & "De La Soul Is Dead" are near classic

Now_Im_Not_Banned:
De La Soul and Naughty By Nature were popular as hell back in the day...You just don't hear about them as much now, because they don't come out as dope anymore...PeACe

M Dogg™:
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.
