Description
Indie Exclusive Clear with Purple Center 2xLP Vinyl – Blowout Comb, the 1994 album by cult, Brooklyn-based hip hop trio Digable Planets.
The album is named for the combs used to maintain an Afro hairstyle, and thats significant. The groups Ishmael Butterfly Butler said it summed up what they wanted to do with it: “It means the utilization of the natural, a natural style, he has said.
Like with 1993s debut Reachin (A New Refutation of Time and Space), utilizing the natural meant creating hip hop that blended jazz with the formidable rap skills of the aforementioned Butterfly, Craig Doodlebug Irving and Mary Ann Ladybug Mecca Vieira. Unlike that debut, it meant broadening to include guests such as Gang Starrs Guru, Jeru the Damaja, and Jazzy Joyce.
