You all might want to savor BLOWOUT COMB, for that will be the last thing we
see from the digables. Apparently, Ish (aka Butterfly) has decided to
flutter off on his own and to focus his energy on producing. I think this
may be a good idea, because I love a lot of the tracks on that disc, but the
rhymes are annoying with their incessant references to "BVOOKLYN" and the
pseudo-black nationalist posturing which was so blatantly an grasp for
"street credibility." Their manufactured rage had a hollow tone and negated
what made them such a breath of fresh air on their first disc, which was that
they came across as honest and real and positive.
Peace Out,
Matt
