What????? Their first album bangs like crazy still. I don't know how anyone could say it didn't age well. Wow that's crazy to me.

I think their influence/impact exceeds their actual quality of work, but definitely under-appreciated

aside from "kill a man" and a few others, that album didnt age well.

maybe its the early '90s syndrome. ALOT of stuff from that era doesnt hold up well.

Yea never been big on them...Always thought Sen was wack.

1st and 3rd albums were good to me,2nd ones overrated...That beef with Cube was always weird to me cuz although they got shytted on with king of the hill they somewhat maintained there credibility by having Cubes chain wind up in there hands...They kinda looked like bosses in that exchange.

Ever since mid 90s stopped checking for em,that rock/rap shyt that got on after that was ultra wack to me as well as doing 3-4 weed songs per album...

their sound is nearly unmatched. Only Wu came through with something just as unique. I will say though...no group opened up hip-hop for white boys like they did, not even Eminem had that impact.

They kept credibility because they really Bloods and were G'd up and connected. Cube is a rapper.
