      I only know the music events every year in Southport near Liverpool in the 90s . There went for 3 days at a theme park on the beach the greatest music parties off. was a supper event and has opened my eyes for the first time how very very big the music business in England is.

    I think the rapper, Dres, is Q-Tip's cousin, which is why he says in the lyrics "l got cousins on the Quest".

    The beats are hitting because they sample really good jazz records. Did you notice that they shouted out the groups that do the same? "I got brothers in the Jungle, cousins on the quest." Referring to the Jungle Brothers and A Tribe Called Quest.

    This track dropped my freshman year in college, 1991. When DJ's played this at parties, in clubs, the entire spot would drop down and then start jumping when Dres says "Pick it up, Pick it up, Pick it up!' Black Sheep were a part of the Native Tongues crew that consisted of the Jungle Brothers, De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest, Queen Latifah, Moni Love & Prince Paul. They were the outcasts of the crew because they were a bit more rebellious, raw, street in their style and lyrics. This is why they called themselves Black Sheep. This song is a Hip Hop classic.

    People used to lose their mind when it was played at the club or wherever especially at the engine engine number nine part. If I remember correctly Funk Master Flex has a popular mixed record that he plays every night with the engine engine part, then he drops to another song right after. Probably what you were thinking about.

    Classic! "Flavor of the Month" was their other big one. You reminding me how lit the 90s was, this was 🔥🔥🔥but this group probably doesn't make most peoples top 10, that's how much hiphop/rnb talent was popin back then., especially the 1st half of the 90s.
    Fu-Schnickens are another forgotten group that had a few bangers.

    Black Sheep is the person that is different from everybody else. They don't fit the standards & actions of those around them. They stand out extremely due to being not the norm. Normally an outcast.

    After sampling every beat, note, instrument, grunt and scream from James Brown,
    90's Hip Hop leaned heavy into Jazz samples and classic RnB. Coltrane, Miles, Barry White, just about anyone you could hook a beat to.
    Dammit if they didn't crush it every time.

    Growing up, they uaed to put a lot into the songs. The lyrics, the compositin, breakdowns etc. Now songs be 2 or 3 minutes, onw vesese maybe two and then they just fade out radomly lol. Im not talking about underground hip hop, but the new style joints. Shit is terrible lmao
