Naughty By Nature ALBUM POLL

I have a major spot in my heart for Natures Fury. Strikes a good balance of party jams and hardman bangers.

The No Limit track w Mystikal is awesome

Is Yoke the Joker their best song?

Poverty's Paradise is awesome.

I think their debut is one of the most underrated rap albums of all-time. OPP sort of drowned out the rest of the goodness.

yeah probably, and hip hop hooray too.

that's from the 2nd one.

Right, just saying in general that those couple of tracks are pretty much all they are known for. People generally cant see passed those, or just never check.

With a couple additions (Jamboree) their greatest hits would be all time.

yeah, Treach MC should have been a huge star. He's got as much talent as anybody ever, as far as delivery.

maybe they needed some more consistent writing and/or production?

Maybe bigger named producers? idk

Their big singles were melodic and infectious hook-lead tracks for parties but thats not really the sound of their overall catalog. Maybe they should have gone one way or the other? like people couldn't take them seriously as hard street rappers cos of OPP or whatever.

guard your grill off the juice soundtrack was great

Thats on the first album?

Uptown Anthem was on Juice I think

ah yup yr right

i shoulda known the ledge :(

You dipped into NbN discography much?

i mean obv i loved the hell out of the first two at the time, and bought poverty's paradise but didn't listen to it as much as i probably should of, i used to kinda buy stuff out of some weird feeling of obligation i guess

but yeah after that i haven't heard much except some video from a couple years ago that was gully as fuck and i was like o_O they still got it!

oh and MTV played "feel me flow" quite a bit at the time, and it always was on when i was eating breakfast, loved that video

just got on spotify

"i got a lotta" was the newer song, 2010, great song

huh top 3 songs on spotify

1 feel me flow
2 hip hop hooray
3 o.p.p.

I really think you'd like Natures Fury.

Maybe the best song ever about blue balls?

'I Gotta' is tuff.

I generally shy away from the term 'underrated' but I think it applies to Treach for sure. Guys kinda got it all and never ever comes up in conversations as top respected emcees. Yoke the Joker, Chain Remains, Uptown Anthemand Jamboree all kinda show his range.

xpost was just surprised feel me flow was number 1!

Yeah I thought it would be 3 in that lineup.

I had the first four of these, cosign on Treach as a very very very good rapper - I do think just as an album the first one's still the best, soooo many jams on that

Treach is probably the best MC that never gets regularly mentioned in lists of great MCs

definitely.

It's time to erase a face in force in fact an inferno
Rise in my eyes, these twin 9'sll make em learn though
You poppin, plottin, plannin, half-steppin, threatenin
The streets clap loud like like thunderCLOUDS with the weapon

how did treach calling out jermaine dupri by name on the lead single whilst claiming to have ghostwritten "jump" by kriss kross just slip the fuck by me all these years?

if you need evidence of how much clout treach had in the 90s, there it is: completely eviscerate one of the most successful producers of the era and everyone just kinda goes, "yeah we better just play tf outta feel me flow and pretend like everything's just fine."

i really liked his 2pac tribute as well-
