Loved this album. Wanted to cop damn near all the Naughty Gear they were selling through the insert in it. Those sheets were fly as fukk.

That intro though? :whew:

Freddie Foxxx on Hot Potato :whew:

Album is fire. Over the years I've come to prefer Poverty's Paradise a little more but this got the nostalgia for me as I was so hyped when this dropped.

I think It’s On is the first time I fully realised the way a sample could be flipped. It sounds so completely different from when they play the sample at the start to the way it fits in the beat. The whole vibe changes.

Dope album. Naughty had a lane and stuck to it really well.
Always loved 'Sleepin On Jersey' :blessed:

Naughty is almost on Bone levels when it comes to being forgotten in fhe history of Hip Hop. They are seen as some kind of pop group that had a couple of hits but they dont respect Treach on the mic or with the flows

He ghostwrote 'Jump' too. If you talk about writing hits - dude had a great pen.

Do the math on Kay Gee's production credits.
Naughty influenced the game, but they have not gotten appropriate cultural recognition for their contributions. With that said...... Take It To Your Face is my shyt.

The average rap listener is probably on average 19 years old..album came out several years before they were even born. I actually feel sorry for them given what they listen to now.
Yeah that's crazy

I just put a 19 year old down with Juvenile - 400 degrees and he been bumping that everyday
