Ladybug smooth as fuck on this track “Im 68 inches above sea level 93 million miles above these Devils! Play in the winter play me in the summer play me in the autumn ANY ORDER!” 🤎✨
@@the_KING_andthe_DUCK Same. I remember I had this tape when it first came out and played it, and all my friends were like, "yo what is that? Let me get a copy" Lol
Wow this video was filmed in Brooklyn NY before Gentrification. They even showed The Dean street train station on the Franklin Avenue Shuttle. It was real over there. I miss the old Brooklyn
One of the heaviest beats ever. Can’t even count how many times my cousin and I listened to this song, and album, stoned out of our heads. Brilliant. The beats, the lyrics, and overall sound and vibes... Timeless. Love and Respect from NYCity. 🌿☪️🤲🌿
Super underrated group ! First 2 man 1 female group before fugees !! Super dope style delivery & pen game !! That 68 inches above sea level 98 miles above these devils line was a cold ass verse !
18 rn this might be my new favorite group or at least on the list. didn’t know they made the “cool like that” song, as soon as i heard it i got excited.
Jazzy Joyce doesn't get enough credit for her get down on this one. Put her whole foot in this James Brown inspired beat. A classic from a classic album.
Soundtrack to the summer between my sophomore and junior year. 1993. Who knew how lucky I was?! And I always thought I was unlucky! Lol. So lucky I got to see DP live.
You and me both...[68’] East Flatbush...Tilden Ave...Early... We both were blessed with being privy to REAL HIP-HOP Legends and Lyricists that we still bang and recite right here now in our 50’s...
I was in love with Ladybug as a kid, nothing better than a beautiful woman that can stimulate your mind. No fake booty, no fake breasts just a gorgeous woman with a beautiful mind.
Jeez this brings back memories. As soon as those drums dumped in I'm instantly taken back to rockin the fatigues with one leg up, yellow timbos, an Echo shirt (this was pre spelling change to Ecko) and some shoulder length dreds. Not enough people bring up Blowout Comb when speakin on Golden Age rap and that is a goddamn shame. Graffiti alone puts it in the discussion.
This track, Blow Out Comb, and Digable themselves are just sooooo underrated and unsung. (Personally, I think Blow Out Comb is one of the best albums ever made, hip-hop or otherwise)
@@TheJeneralJU-ICE Yeah but they gave NYC a sound and we embrace them as being from the city. I grew up knowing them as being from Brooklyn they was representing hardcore 92-95
One from MD, one from PA and one from Seattle……..but damn, their sound and style is very NYC…..DP embraced NYC and NYC loved them back…..they will always get love from NYC, like they are one of our own.
This was a bittersweet album! It was easily one of the best to drop in 94 and way surpassed the debut album. Unfortunately it was too soon for the masses to digest the switch in style and energy. I also believe that the "real heads" didn't take them seriously for the same reason. A brilliant body of work criminally slept on!!!!
Indeed, black! Ladybug Mecca spittin' that zig zag zig, Y equal self above Yacub, that grafted devil, the skunk of the planet Earth, kinda knowledge, ya know!
Man I remember hearing Bug's verse! I grabbed my pen and paper and wrote down her entire rap so I could learn it.... rewinding my cassette tape over and over until I got it right! Digable Planets will ALWAYS be in rotation for me...
Besides Rebirth Of Slick Cool Like Dat (1993) which came off of their gold album Reachin': A New Refutation Of Time Space. This one of my favorites by Digable planets. Blowout comb was the ish in 1994m
“68 inches above sea level…..93 Million miles….above devils”! Rawest line in the word! Bug….killed that! Still listening…then til now…..2021
Her tone was so silky with real barz behind it
“68 inches above sea level…..93 Million miles above "these" devils.
I donˋt understand the meaning of it. Can somebody help me?
@@nickacelvn hi contchiecns'e in the is evil world.

Ladybug smooth as fuck on this track “Im 68 inches above sea level 93 million miles above these Devils! Play in the winter play me in the summer play me in the autumn ANY ORDER!” 🤎✨
I thought she was saying " ... play me in the AUTUMN, any order." Could be wrong.
@@DarrickBLee no it’s Autumn lol idk why that’s there let go edit that😂

I still listen to this album at least once a week
I thought it was just me that felt like that ANY ORDER
Those drums are bananas.
Jonas Polsky Those drums been stuck in my head bout 20 years. Lol closer to 30
For me personally this is hip hop perfected!
The bass is wild
@@the_KING_andthe_DUCK Same. I remember I had this tape when it first came out and played it, and all my friends were like, "yo what is that? Let me get a copy" Lol
That real jazz hip hop! Legendary
Mecca, has the best voice in Hip Hop history
Butterfly too, even when he's just talking it sounds dope
Seriously man. This group is so underrated always has been I mean. Deserve way more cred
I'd say Andre 3000...but you're not far off.
She's so good! Check out how she sounds over a house track with Doggstar - Fred Everything remix
Wow this video was filmed in Brooklyn NY before Gentrification. They even showed The Dean street train station on the Franklin Avenue Shuttle. It was real over there. I miss the old Brooklyn
before the invasion, no doubt! .. those my old stompin grounds .. BK Boy, ya heard!
You saw that too!😍😍
For realA...Pre-White Folks indeed...well and way before baguettes and Frappuccino’s...
Peace!!I remember catching the C and it was mad dangerous with Decepticons everywhere..
@@99alfailiwaqain51 Hell yeah. It was very dangerous over there. I knew people over there so was good lolololol
Ladybug Mecca... 💯💯🔥🔥
Hottest of all time is miss mecca.
Mad flow.
Hottest verse on the track . They all went hard . But ladybug japped
Her verse here is just fire.
Respect to you. And yuuup ladybug thee most fly
Im a rap music check its out 3rd bass and do music 3rd bass in 1990😀🎤
One of the heaviest beats ever. Can’t even count how many times my cousin and I listened to this song, and album, stoned out of our heads. Brilliant. The beats, the lyrics, and overall sound and vibes... Timeless. Love and Respect from NYCity. 🌿☪️🤲🌿
Raphael Fritzler That you cuz?
“Yes the Notorious, with rhymes so glorious, the Manchu monkey over flunkies is Victorious”
I have always loved that line
So far ahead of their time. So underrated.
We played you.

LADY BUG MECCA THO!!!! SHE GOES HARD...LOVE THE BEAT. CLASSIC
We played you, made you change, STRAIGHT NEW YORKED YOU.............she over killed the song!!!
Yes she does! Her opening line is dope!
Super underrated group! This how New York hip hop supposed to sound!
And the irony is that neither of them were from NY.
Super underrated group ! First 2 man 1 female group before fugees !! Super dope style delivery & pen game !! That 68 inches above sea level 98 miles above these devils line was a cold ass verse !
How many million times have I heard this CD? Still not enough times!
Top 10 best of all time
Blowout Comb///// IMO, Probably Thee Most Underrated Album EVER,...... Ever, Ever,.... In the History of EVER!!
I have an 8 disc cd changer. Both of their albums have never left CD player.
My favorite Hip-Hop group. And yes, I'm happy to have them as my favorite at age 26.
Somebody raised you right! 👍💯😁👍
So so close for me between them ATCQ and Arrested Development.
27 over here
18 rn this might be my new favorite group or at least on the list. didn’t know they made the “cool like that” song, as soon as i heard it i got excited.
That’s what’s up
Jazzy Joyce doesn't get enough credit for her get down on this one. Put her whole foot in this James Brown inspired beat. A classic from a classic album.
Jazzy Joyce
fatter than a 94 Land Cruiser! haha I always loved that line
The Best. Didn’t realize in high school what an impact these cats would have on me (93). Ahead of their time and faded too soon. RESPECT.
Soundtrack to the summer between my sophomore and junior year. 1993. Who knew how lucky I was?! And I always thought I was unlucky! Lol. So lucky I got to see DP live.
It's been 20 years since this video and somehow Ladybug Mecca looks even better now.
I same the same exact thing. She forever fire
Glad she put some weight on
Mecca straight KILLED her verse! This is still my fav DP song.
Thank God I was raised in this golden era and Bklyn !!! East Flatbush !!
You and me both...[68’] East Flatbush...Tilden Ave...Early...
We both were blessed with being privy to REAL HIP-HOP Legends and Lyricists that we still bang and recite right here now in our 50’s...
👁️M FROM EAST 92& CLARKSON ✌️
This and "passin me by" are my 2 mos fav hip hop joints of all time
Facts
PMB fly as pie remix is my second favorite remix of all time, after ATCQ remix of scenario featuring LONS
Miss this Brooklyn.
Hip hop in the 90’s just hit on another level!
"I'm slicka this year, I'm slicka this year, Myrtle Av A-Train, got the pick in my hair"
One of the most slept on albums!!!
A few bars and she created two of the dopest hooks on separate tracks by two west coast legends.❤
Their development from their debut album to blowout comb is unbelievable
I was in love with Ladybug as a kid, nothing better than a beautiful woman that can stimulate your mind. No fake booty, no fake breasts just a gorgeous woman with a beautiful mind.
Same here!

Butterfly killed it!!
I seen them in concert before all of this craziness started. They were just F-ing amazing.
Maaaaaaaannnn that song is FIRE!!!! Best of Digable Planets
I miss their music! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This group was way beyond their time.,Legendary😁😁😁😁
This track, Blow Out Comb, and Digable themselves are just sooooo underrated and unsung.
(Personally, I think Blow Out Comb is one of the best albums ever made, hip-hop or otherwise)
Rob Weissman I consider it a masterpiece. This album oozes Hip Hop!
For Corners
Ahhh Creamy Spies
I agree it's a highly slept on classic, it takes the impactful intensity of a nation of millions and makes it this deep meditation on life and meaning
This is where 9th Wonder the producer says he got is name from.
Yo word?? That's dope AF!! Didn't even know that! HIP HOP AT THE PEAK!!!
I thought that guy produced this track!
One of the original treasures of Hip Hop
This track is sooo bklyn yoo, I remember hearing this as a young kid in the 90’s and was like this shit feels like the heartbeat of bklyn!
Crazy thing is they wasn't even from NY or Brooklyn. They represented something lovely though.
@@TheJeneralJU-ICE Yeah but they gave NYC a sound and we embrace them as being from the city. I grew up knowing them as being from Brooklyn they was representing hardcore 92-95

She came in sooooo smooth!!!🙌🏾💕🔥
Best sampling of Love Rollercoaster I've ever heard.
Right and there’s so many and so many bad ones 😭
The song is still sounds great 👍 and I'm glad I got a chance to see it performed in person at a show. Everybody was dancing to this y'all 😊
All three are dope but lady bug verse was sick!!!!
when I was a kid i used to BUMP this!! It STILL hits in 22.
Digable's hardest hitting track IMO...so bass heavy and nasty.
we played you, made you change, straight New Yorked you! FIRE!!
Straight New Yorked you!!! Luv it!! Luv ladybug
This song was the first time I spent money on music ever. Bought the single on cassette in 1994 as a 7th grader
For me I was in 10th grade.
The most underrated HIP HOP GROUP
BUTTERFLY 🦋
How do they not have 20 albums ...this is byfar one of the best groups ever both albums still make me feel goosebumps when I listen ..😊
Some songs are like sound tracks to life.
Hip hop staple. Those with thumbs down should never put hip hop/ rap to they ears ever again
This was a bittersweet album! It was easily one of the best to drop in 94 and way surpassed the debut album. Unfortunately it was too soon for the masses to digest the switch in style and energy. I also believe that the "real heads" didn't take them seriously for the same reason. A brilliant body of work criminally slept on!!!!
That hook still gives chills.
That last verse just classic to me
The style, wordplay, creativity & culture vibe in hip hop originates from the 5% nation. Knowledge born!
Love Rollercoaster sample!
This was before the Red Hot Chilli Peppers
I used to be in love with lady Mecca, she is such a smooth slick mc and she is gorgeous.
as a kid the most awesome feelin was watching the video waiting for ladybug mecca, been years since i heard this track, still AWESOME
One of my favorite jams to play on college radio! Peace!
This beat is hard af!! 🔥🔥🔥
Goddamn right
This group was so underrated.👌🏾
From beginning to end. Straight 🔥!
Late 94-I was 16 had this taped off radio. I admit I slept on this album after loving Reachin. This track is classic from the golden era
Wow,93millions miles frm these devils! Ladybug Mecca drop'd jewels for da wisdom of da 5%. They all rep'd dat,gracefully!
Indeed, black!
Ladybug Mecca spittin' that zig zag zig, Y equal self above Yacub, that grafted devil, the skunk of the planet Earth, kinda knowledge, ya know!
I miss this jam omg memories in East New York, Brooklyn.❤❤❤
I AM 45 YEARS OLD I LOVE OLD School I Am OLD School ............
I’ll be 53 on the 21st. That’s ALL that I roll with in the Whip..” it’s the culture experience and lives in the DNA!!” “WE ARE TRUE SCHOOL!!”
Still in love wit Jazzy Joyce after all this time
It is timeless , even better than the majority of modern hip hop, way a head its time!😎💥🔫
I wish they released more material they were so dope
" We played U, made U change, straight NY'd U!' LUV LADYBUG MECCA!!!!!!!!

Not just the 90's. One of the best beats of all time!😁👍💯
2021 still 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Man I remember hearing Bug's verse! I grabbed my pen and paper and wrote down her entire rap so I could learn it.... rewinding my cassette tape over and over until I got it right! Digable Planets will ALWAYS be in rotation for me...
Lady Bug Mecca is so freaking dope! Always loved her!
One of the greatest tunes EVER. The beats, the rhymes, the vid... superb!
May 2021 and still a banger
Pure New York City!!!!
That slowed down Clyde Stubblefield loop sounds awesome.
STRAIGHT NEW YORKED YOU!
Black motion is ocean style slick in my way since days of the real classic ,REAL HIP HOP ,sounds even better in 2015
Word...these rhymes aged like wine.
Besides Rebirth Of Slick Cool Like Dat (1993) which came off of their gold album Reachin': A New Refutation Of Time Space. This one of my favorites by Digable planets. Blowout comb was the ish in 1994m
That drums🔥🔥🔥
Ole girl fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Mannn Digable Planets ARE ONE OF MY FAVORITE HIP HOP CLICKS 💯🙌🏾
Those HARD AZZ marching band beats, smooth hard lyrics, strolling the NYC streets….the rest of the country just don’t know…..
