I've been playing this group a lot recently. I love finding gems like this.

"Bad Times" by Tavares

The intro was sampled by Digable Planets on their LP 'Blowout Comb'

This was one of the first CD's that I ever owned. Naughty By Nature's self titled debut album. I still have it to this day. Unquestionable classic for me.

"Yoke the Joker" feat. Queen Latifah

I really dug this collab between Q-Tip and Norah Jones. I think they should release a full album together

"Life is Better"
