Beyond Tribe and De La Soul, what's worth checking out/should be avoided?

Hey, I remember having this discussion with my friends ten years ago.

black sheep make too many sheep jokes. it's like, i get it, your name is black sheep.

It is a sad thread. I like that Black Sheep record, jokes notwithstanding. Similak Child alone makes it worth owning.

One could search the first two Jungle Brothers record. I have no idea whether the really fucked-up third one would sound great today, or like shit.

imho its their best, and possibly the best Native Tongues record (altho 3 Feet kinda gets that honor by default)

i know Stakes Is High gets a lot of love around here, but i've never really liked it. preachy Posdnuos is fucking grating.

Stakes is where I got off the De La bandwagon. Turns out I like Prince Paul more than anybody else in the De La crew.

(scott OTM about Show and AG upthread btw - not really NT stuff but super-solid)

That's pretty much the best bridge of any hip-hop song ever

I saw Black Sheep do it in the park with De La Soul when they opened for Cake in 2003 or whatever and no one gave a flying fuck

yeah I love that first Black Sheep record - my then-girlfriend/now-wife introduced me to them when she put "Menage" on a mixtape
