Swing It Babees

When House of Pain ruled the singles chart with "Jump Around", Da Bush Babees snuck in through the back door and generated buzz with their own anthem, "Swing It". This NY trio consisted of Jamaican refugees Kaos, Mister Man and toaster Y-Tee. These guys featured some of the who's-who of producers on their debut album Ambushed including Jermaine Dupri and A Tribe Called Quest's Ali Shaheed.

One of my favorite hip hop cuts of all time, "We Run Things" evokes a nostalgic feeling of the days when hip hop stressed realness over sales every time I hear it.
