Who Remembers Three Times Dope?

"E.S.T., the Acknickulous One... he's the Greatest Man Alive..."

YEAH!

"The Greatest Man Alive" was from the "Original Stylin'" album.

Remember "Funky Dividends"?

Back in the Glory days of Hip-Hop.

Do U remember?

nod 3x Dope did the Classic jam justice and even had Steve in the video doing cameo appearance.

They were the first band I saw live. They only had a few truly memorable songs, but they were really underrated live perfomers. EST worked the crowd as well as any of the more celebrated MCs from that time, and I recall being impressed with how nimble he was. He was a really good dancer at a period when most acts relied on a pair of backup dancers behind an MC who just sort of roved back and forth with the mic. He had funky haircuts, too. :nods:
