30 years later and they still sound awesome, butterfly my twin

Peace to the Fam!
Top 25 group all time
I love this group growing up ❤
Truly organic!!!!!! Funky!!!!!! Eternal!!!!!!
This guy doesn’t have the feel
Legendary
Not to make this a racial issue…and I have zero issue with white people supporting…but our own black people act like they are alergic to this brand of hip hop…sad to see that there are no people of color in the audience. This was one of the best acts of the 90's…that second album was bananas.
Ladybug is still so amazing to me. I had the biggest crush on her back in the day.
They’re cool like that…
I still remember Blowout Comb dropping around 93-94. I lived in Boston and picked it up from Mystery Train. When I heard Ninth Wonder, my walkman fell to the ground when Ladybug came on. No lady has ever been so cool and hot at the same time.
I caught them at the Roxy with a British soul band called D-Influence opening. All the bodies were moving in the place.
Golden era of hip hop with Digables and Tribe on the scene.
2025 AND BEYOND
This is so dope!
I remember going to see DP at Irving Plaza at Union Square in NYC back in 1994. The Reach'in album was straight fire. So glad to see them aging like fine wine!
❤
love to see them playing live in 2023! smooth as always.
Shieeeeet, still smoove as fuck.
15:50 Rebirth of Slick.
❤DOPENESS
butterfly the dopest foreva
There was a lot of rhythmless in that audience with such a cool grove but this was dope.
Slippery, poignant, authentic hip hop – they didn’t miss a beat ❤
Eye saw this astonishingly real band at First Ave in Mpls. back in the day.
One of the baddest albums of all time is Blowout Comb. It's magical.
she is in E-40's new vid "LIFT IT" THIS DOPE.
One of my favourite groups. That jazzy and bluesy flavor all over the place, is simply amazing. Real hip hop right here. Greetings from Argentina.
Nice rehearsal
My favorite group Ever❤❤
grey gray hairs never felt so good shame on me been so long forgot it felt sound so good
