  • Hip Hop trio Naughty by Nature, consisting of Anthony Criss, better known as Treach, Vincent Brown, better known as Vin Rock and Keir Lamont Gist, better known as DJ Kay Gee came together in their teens in East Orange, New Jersey. The first time they performed as a group was at East Orange High School during Kay Gee’s senior talent show in 1987. Growing up, Kay Gee looked up to his older brother, who was heavily into the hip hop music and fashion. But, it wasn’t until after he saw the 1983 hip hop film Wild Style that he became inspired to become a DJ. As a DJ, Kay Gee knew he needed backup so, he asked his childhood friend Vinnie to beatbox for him. But they still needed an MC. Vin knew the perfect person for the job. A guy in his Health class that went by the nickname Tiny T Treachery who would later become known simply as Treach.

    Naughty by Nature along with Bone Thugs-N-Harmony are two of the most underrated hip-hop groups in the world.

      Bone Thugs were the most popular rap group in the 90's hands down. Anyone under the age of 30 think Bone is underrated for whatever reason. They still have a huge fanbase and perform at packed shows. Bone doesn't get mainstream exposure like they used to because they didn't sell their souls to the music industry. They've been working independently for a long time now.

    Naughty By Nature had nothing but straight BOPS! They are the epitome of 90's music & hip-hop. I hate that at The Grammy's when they won their award, they had to receive it off stage, due to the genre of rap, having such an aggressive stigma. That moment wasn't even aired on screen. But they broke history with "Hip-Hop Hooray" being played at athletic events, & it being such a diverse song accepted by everyone. God Bless all the members & they def deserve their flowers!!
