Despite an excellent debut album,
Naughty by Nature
was pegged as a one-hit wonder by some observers -- after all, they'd never duplicate the inescapably catchy
"O.P.P.,"
would they?
19 Naughty III
's lead single,
"Hip Hop Hooray,"
proved that they could, and the album confirmed that
were indeed highly underrated in terms of consistency. It's a shade less consistent than the debut, but has all the same strengths: head-nodding beats,
Treach
's bouncy flow, and a difficult balance between street attitude and accessibility.
clearly comes from the streets, and have all the aggression of the streets, but they don't glamorize the streets; sure, they'll take care of themselves in a harsh environment, but ultimately they prefer to steer clear of trouble, cops, and jail. It's a refreshingly grounded and realistic perspective, best heard on
"Daddy Was a Street Corner,"
"The Hood Comes First,"
and
"The Only Ones."
There are also energized guest appearances from
Heavy D
(
"Ready for Dem"
) and
Queen Latifah
"Sleeping on Jersey"
).
Kay Gee
again shows himself a sorely underappreciated producer, with one foot in the clubs and the other one on the street corner, and that's true of the group as a whole. A few slower moments don't prevent
from ranking as
's second straight triumph. ~ Steve Huey
