    Not just sonically but literally

    Hookup culture


    The Iraq war


    The age of information


    They practically predicted all of these things if you think about it

    And thats why theyre one of the few artists from the 90s that still sound somewhat modern today

    Even my friends jam out to Rosa Parks and ATLiens sometimes

    how is "bombs over baghdad" topically ahead of its time lmaooooooo
    i mean, no, that sound only existed during the height of def jux. it could only have existed when it did.

    "jazzy belle" is obviously a very good songs but its content sux

    The "Now they dykin'.....nasty b------s." line definitely sounds a little more bitter and slightly homophobic in retrospect. Especially in this age of commonly-propagated sociopolitical awareness.
