That's what I'm talking about.....all of them still look good and sound good. Damn .....life been real good to them.

[@Sheilah-c1w]

Thanks for the feedback. I definitely need to level up......I mean me and my classmates and people who I've met along the way have gotten older but we don't have to look like it ........ a good diet and exercise and a good personal regimen will work wonders. People don't believe it but also watch the company that you keep........ spiritual energy rubs off ........ surround yourself with as much positivity and light as you can. For real.......that negative energy ain't no joke.

Real Rap was truly "Cool like Dat".

Younger folks don’t have the context to know just how groundbreaking they were to hip hop when they came on the scene.

[@jamesearlcash1758]

Yep I remember them, the industry spinoff terrible copy cat version of the Fugees. The very first
mumbling rappers. That group really sucked and that song was straight up weak! I thought I
might have given them a shot after so many years just to see if I could open up to them a bit but
after watching this performance ugh ahh yuck blahhhhhhhhhhhh ahahahahahahahaha Its ok if
you like them to each their own. I don't know why ya would tho. lol

Don’t it just say tht you really like this song nd be playin it around em?

[@KuttyJoe]

This was one of those songs that you can remember the first time you heard it. It was so unique and so cool.

[@Spontaneous72]

100% Live, no lip singing, no auto tune, no 15 dudes trying to get in the mix. Love this.

[@nerds-nonsense]

That’s most performers, you not finna find the real talent looking at the most famous mfs lmaoo

[@anthonygriffin1958]

I don't know who was more excited (Tamron Hall or the audience) to hear the group perform their classic song track. I have to admit it still sounds good in the 21st century.

[@danlev4235]

Listen! I am up late working, but I dropped EVERYTHING to watch Digable Planets. Being a teenager in the 90's and having music like this blasting through the speakers was everything. A Tribe Called Quest, Scarface, Ice Cube, Salt-N-Pepa, DJ Quik, LL Cool J, MC Lyte, and Bone Thugs-N-Harmony were always on repeat.

[@TiffanyMoore-ze2hs]

Exactly girl!😀

Same! Even just a few EPs or demos. They still have so much flow and I miss the jazzy boom bap sound.

[@TopBillinSports]

Murdered it! I love when musical artists perform the songs exactly how it's published. I can't stand when they try to intentionally not sing or rap along or try to remix the flow. It was a hit for a reason; do it like how it got popular! A+ to Digable Planets!

[@bethedifferent1]

That's how you do it! Damn, sounds just as good as ever. I love this song and always will.
