The album showcased their innovative sound, fusing positive, Afrocentric rhymes with funky samples and extraordinary drum programming. It also featured a pre-Tribe appearance by Q-Tip on "Black Is Black" and early hip-house sounds on "I'll House You." Mike G, Sammy B, and Baby Bam soon copped a major deal and released <I>Done By The Forces Of Nature</I>. Although a quality record start to finish, many heads slept on it, and several years went by before their next release, <I>J Beez Wit The Remedy</I>, surfaced in 1993, containing the great tracks "My Jimmy Weighs A Ton" and "Good Lookin Out." The album also demonstrated a growing tendency to experiment with their sound, including some highly unusual, bugged-out instrumentals. The group continues to evolve, incorporating more of a Drum 'n' Bass/club influence into their heavy jazz vibes and intelligent, witty lyrics.East Coast Undergrounden720Mon, 23 Nov 2009 21:53:21 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.4306&rws=%2Fjungle-brothers%2Fmusic-videos.rss As early members of the Native Tongue Family, New York's Jungle Brothers dropped their classic debut <I>Straight Out The Jungle</I> in 1988.
