Is Butterfly's Grammy speech what led to Digable Planets getting blackballed?

[Magnum P.I.M.P.]

I didn’t know Digable Planets did enough to get this level of hate lol. I mean they were around like what 3 years at their peak?

I’m definitely not a rapper and I’m definitely not 50. I mean, I can freestyle incredibly well, obviously. But I don’t care.

That said, there’s nothing wrong with being a fan of Digable Planets’ music. If you weren’t there to know and live the history it’s not surprising in the least that you’re not aware of the shyt we’re discussing here.

Facts lol, buncha hatin’ ass washed nikkas

nikkas was getting out-rapped by the 4th nikka in the Fu-schnicans in ‘92 now they acting like some kind of authority.

 

[Mr. Negative]

nikka said innovative when they were qtip biters and toys.
talking bullshyt jive percenter shyt.
when they were not even original but the most blatant culture thieves.

Plus their members were loud mouths.
who were unskilled.
plus precipitated and got served on thr mic and career deaded in that exact time in tha chi by juice and common.
who packed him the fukk outta there via actual real rap skill and their careers ruined.
label ain't have shyt to do with it.
they were biters and nikkaz still giving them passes.
plus not as skilled frfr.

nikka doodle bug was so bitter and exposed.
he was walking around crazy up north shouting to thr clouds in Chicago lookin goofie, days later.
plus everytime he was publically seen in that time too.
you nikkaz be giving nostalgia passes to these toys.

fukk outta here. Most of y'all need to get culturally Intune plus, stop believe'n these biters, jive percenters and toys.

nikka gon say the label this and that.
them nikkaz got served and talked bullshyt far from wtf they portrayed on wax and got served simple as that.

stop trying to rebolster nikkaz who was flaug'n.

served by Juice and Common?

what happened there

that lame doodlebug went to the i believe it was the actual elbo room of all places.
in the spring of 1995. Or maybe the spring summer of 1996.

started talking shyt about Chicago hiphop in a deragatory term culturally.
like he was this skilled guy.
little did he realize in every crowd of the elbo

was alway ju and common in that era.

they promptly served that nikka.
had him talking to the clouds in another part of the up north areas days later.

[Turk]

Digable Planets are so underrated and it's a shame they never got their roses



If Blackness had a sound I swear it would be this song

 

[tuckgod]

New album is too.

It might be their most contemporary one yet. Ish said his son, who also raps, was an inspiration. I'm tempted to say it's basically Butterfly's take on the current sound, but there's a lot more to it than just photocopying what's hot now.

Breh, God bless yall for reminding me to go back and check for Shabazz Palaces.

Their catelog should've been the soundtrack to my 30s and I slept.

This shyt is incredible.

Ish/Butterfly needs to get his flowers as one of the greatest creative minds to grace the culture.

What's fukkin with this?


@Art Barr, this 5 years old from one of your peers.

You got some new shyt fukkin with this?

"In '92 we grinded thru.
I was there, you a square, please do not compare"

I think he talkin to you breh..

Post your best track.

 

[Art Barr]

Post your best track.

You can start at my debut, sir.
Which is a classic in either incarnation or remix.
you should be telling them what my debut is.
since you trying to act like the expert on the culture defiantly.
After people had to tell you,you were supporting biters and toys.

If I don't know your debut it won't shyt.

Your rap name is really Art Barr?

 

[tuckgod]

Blowout Comb is an undeniable classic..better than their first and aged like fine wine imo,still gets heavy rotation in the crib

They both aged like fine wine IMO

 

[Sankofa Alwayz]

They both aged like fine wine IMO

Swear I wish I was could consume an edible right now to this joint

 

[Sankofa Alwayz]

I truly wish this type of music could experience a mass revival in Hip Hop today, especially with all that’s been gradually coming to light over the last 20+ years to recently

I notice you skim.
yet you keep asking all these questions.
while showing you don't fully know.
plus you came on here tout'n flauge'n acts.
who so disrespectful they got served and never heard from again.
like usual when wack emcees get served.

I am the protege to juice sir.
if you know discographies so well and you socalled so culturally knowing and affluent. Then you should know my work.
from going to see the most skilled headliners for real.

all that other shyt you talking is false fake ass bravado.
for fake signed sellout rappers.
that gotta go politic for a deal czuse they not really skilled or real enough to exist frfr. That they need a loan ti make it.
all cause they were never building a real draw grassroots for real.
plus cape'n for some nikkaz.
that would get served in any capacity anyday.
