Dante Ross: Grand Puba & Lord Jamar Egos Led To Brand Nubian Breakup 

Everything is everything....🔥🚬😤

Word

Umm...One for all is their best album. Got 5 mics in the source.

@@futurefind674 Ummmmm so because one writer gave All For One 5 mics, then that automatically makes All For One their best album, according to your logic… this is why rap fans be having the worst opinions lmao! I bet you’re one of those dudes who rates rappers based on the amount of albums they sell…

@@swanm3ta850 Lol. I just mentioned it as proof of my own opinion, Ma'am. May I suggest Midol? Every woman I've ever known says it's helped THEM with their menstrual cramps, too! 😉👌🏾

Classic album

Haha, he's so ridiculous it's funny

We need another one.

Everything Is Everything doesn’t get talked about enough either IMO... all without Puba too, Jamar was at the forefront of the wave orchestrating live musicians for the production, and it’s just a fully cohesive album. I feel like it made way more of an impact & influence on the future than people would like to give it credit for...

Sample is Another Day by Ray Goodman and Brown also Roy Ayers for the hook

😂 Ironic but makes perfect sense! By the time they reunited for that, they grew & learned so much more

@@CantTellYou and a track called just don't learn

TRUTH SPOKEN!!!!!! PAUL C IS AN UNKNOWN LEGENDARY PRODUCER!!!!!!!

"Cause I don't wear no Stetson hats like Paul C!" RIP Paul C and DOOM!

Paul C was simply the dude who knew certain producer tricks, like filtering and beat and sample drops. He taught people like Extra P, Eric B, D.J. Polo, and Organized Konfusion how to get the most out of their music. Nobody's really ever heard any production from him, so how they know he was a great producer is beyond me. Some people just want to sound more knowledgeable than they really are. 🤷🏾‍♂️🤣

@@futurefind674 His Drums are one of the most sampled drums in History. He did a slew of beats...

@@jonpoetical Name them.

Ego brings paranoia

Don't let it go to your head now

Damn, did you miss anybody...? 😂🤣

@@futurefind674 😂 salute Henry Templeton, the janitor in the studio where they recorded “In God We Trust”

@@CantTellYou 🤣😅🤣😅

Never knew John Gamble died, Rest In Peace to him.

Man, they're middle aged dads & husbands. The deals they get now would ask them to tour for months and probably get way less money than they made before. Music business has changed with 360 deals. You don't see many older artists still going because its all about the label making the money.

​@@ltopomcfly5583Touring is different from dropping music. Many artists are independent and they are doing their thing with downloads and RU-vid. Lord Jamar has a studio and is pretty active making beats and writing rhymes, Derrick X is still active. I haven't heard anything from Puba in a while. Brand Nubian are masters in their craft, if these microwave rappers can drop tunes every week. I would hope that Brand Nubian could too.

@@daltonhanleyjr4142 Grand Puba released " Black from the Future" back in 2016.. fairly recent.

@@wisethescholar5779 I have that one. It actually was made in 2014/2015. It's almost 10 years ago. These guys should try to make some music at least every 12-15 months

@ltopomcfly5583 what makes you think they need deals?

Facts!

He was ill

Didn’t Paul C put Organized Konfuzion on back in the days???

It was alright

Me too I started liking it better than the original

​@@Seanljohnsonsr609yeah. I like the original one better!

I was at the Palladium back in '91, when Brand Nubian, KMD, and Leaders Of The New School were doing a showcase, and Brand Nubian were performing without Puba, and everybody was like "Welp, looks like Puba's pulled another Puba...!" 😂, and all of a sudden, you hear the beat start uo, and here comes Puba, strolling onto the stage, to a roaring crowd, Hilfigered down to his socks, with a backpack, and a towel, doing "Step To The Rear"! Honest to GOD, you could see the envy in Jamar's face. He stood to the side, not saying a thing, while Sadat took care of all the hype man duties. Plus, Alamo was denied access to the D.J. set, by somebody I'd never seen before, and was sulking on the side, smoking a blunt on stage. I'll never forget that show as long as I live. It was just as funny as it was entertaining. 😅😅😅😅😅

@@futurefind674 Salute!!! Thanks for sharing. No wonder Jamar came so hard on that next album without Puba.

@doncatalog Yeah, you could tell he was the happiest out of the whole crew. I liked Jamar though, and thought he was probably the second most important member of Brand Nubian because he truly embodied the 5% teachings, more than anyone else in the group. But in all honesty, it would've been some real flamboyant ish if it were just Puba and Sadat. I believe that's what it was supposed to be initially, but Sadat was loyal to Jamar and wouldn't do any projects without him, which was also smart because Puba IS such a habitual flake. 😅🤣 I'm actually FROM New Rochelle where they're from too, so a lot of stuff that went on, we know, that no one outside of New Rochelle knows.

@@futurefind674 Lord Jamar did his best work on that second album. Sadat truly became Sadat on the third. If they had kept putting pressure on each other and working as a group, we would have heard some unbeatable material.

​@@futurefind674those were the days!!! PUBA AKA HAGI GOD was/is That Dude!!!!

INDEED

That shit was wack. Lol.

@@futurefind674 that's your opinion.

@@fredicagoillanoise1309 It is. 🤷🏾‍♂️

An Actual Fact Typo

Co-sign. Me and my mans chopped it up with Dotty X after a show once. Dude was cool as hell.

Had Regina Hall on there also.

🙅🏿‍♂️85%ers

Bugging

I agree

​@@Seanljohnsonsr609For real. They only had two singles from that album.

And, John Gamble

I been up on SD-50'S since Shazzy first album and their D Nice "Crumbs On The Table" Remix.

Your kidding me nigga 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

There are even more contradictions than that...but I'll chill. WAY more, that I have been mulling over for years.

Used to get beats from him trying to get a deal at the same time.

Foundation was an underrated album!

Foundation was an underrated album!

@@kwamesarfo-mensah5785 very underrated that could've put more singles out

Chill

@@Seanljohnsonsr609 I was just stating my opinion on an EGO in this Puba had the skills to walk it like he talk it the same can't be said for Lord Jamar.

Emphatically NO! All three are nice! Ain't no Divide & Conquer here. EGO is Edging God Out or Erasing God Out....Grand Puba had his start with Masters of Ceremony and nice; however, each of the three could and can hold their own individually and it has been proven with their respective solo releases. Also, Sadat has been on plenty of features, more than Puba or Lord Jamar. Puba had no right to have any type ego over his Brothers.

G raps a rap god

What did he say?

@@deezy81 something bout g raps career being a failure... some nonsense like that.. google search dante ross and kool g rap

THat's why I give De La Soul the ultimate respect

@@dn30001 Thanks for reminding me bc I did NOT want to be right.

@@NIM11a you are correct in the sense that it always happens besides De La (RIP Dave) . I can't think of any other major groups that stuck it out throughout the years. Even with groups such as the Roots...you have to consider the times they deleted and added members from internal beef even though the group still exist. Peace.

@@dn30001 Peace

@@dn30001 I wouldnt add the Roots to that list.

That's a GodDamn Lie!

@@BThaSmoovUno Name the songs.
