There are very few bands which have made a significant mark in the hip-hop genre. And Digable Planets are one of those elite ones. Digable Planets is a popular and alternative hip hop group comprised of Ishmael "Butterfly" Butler, Craig "Doodlebug" Irving, and Mary Ann "Ladybug Mecca" Vieira. Earlier they were solely backed by Silkworm. But later Silkworm decided to go on his own way and started his own solo career under the name King Britt. Since they made a debut in the music arena, they continuously played with the music and its genre. They are proudly known as the fusion of jazz and hip hop (jazz rap). They got the raving reviews from their debut album release "Reachin' (A New Refutation of Time and Space)". This album was released in 1993 and soon got the gold certificate from the RIAA.
Apart from that the album was also considered a landmark of alternative hip hop. According to music gurus, this album gave the new look to hip-hop music and this album's lead single, "Rebirth of Slick (Cool Like Dat)," became a major crossover hit, peaking at #15 on Billboard magazine's singles chart. Furthermore, this album also went onto win the Grammy award for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group. In short, Digable Planets made a thumping entry into the music arena and took the world with a stride. But sadly Digable Planets were not able to get the same fame in their second album, Blowout Comb, was released in 1994. That album was also critically acclaimed, but some how it lacked the novelty of the group's jazz/hip-hop fusion, which ultimately led to disappointing sales. Seeing this failure the trio soon broke up due to creative differences, as well as the deaths of both of Ladybug's parents due to unrelated illnesses.
