I remember once watching them perform live in what seemed like a benefit
concert for AIDS victims in the ghettos. The Digables were rapping and
there was an old man seated on a stool and he played some really funky
grooves on guitar. I was blown away by their performance, even though I
watched it on TV. The news of their break up surely comes negatively to
me.
