hip-hop turns 50 and we pull back the lens to see its full story, we can appreciate the rappers who truly changed the game from an artistic and business perspective. That list wouldn’t be complete without including the groundbreaking trio from East Orange, New Jersey: Naughty by Nature.They started out performing at their high school talent show and went to the moon. Initially, Vin Rock (Vincent Brown) and DJ KayGee (Keir Lamont Gist), who joined me on this week’s “Renaissance Man,” enlisted Treach (Anthony Criss) to round out the group.
“We started in 1987 in high school and we didn’t even have a name when we did that talent show,” KayGee told me. “Then, when we did the talent show, I just scratched, ‘It’s the new style!’ So, you know, we just start calling ourselves the New Style. We started doing a bunch of talent shows and it evolved.” They changed their name after their first album to Naughty by Nature — and the rest is history.
Now, they’re celebrating the 30th anniversary of their album “19 Naughty III,” which featured their anthem “Hip Hop Hooray.” Two years earlier in 1991, they released their smash hit, “O.P.P.,” which was used in “Sister Act 2” and changed to a much cleaner “You down with G.O.D.” And in “The Wolf of Wall Street,” Leonardo DiCaprio danced to “Hip Hop Hooray” on his yacht. “It’s a very classic film. So to see our music in that scene, it was like, ‘Oh, we really mean something to pop culture,'” said Vin.As kids, they were influenced by Run-DMC and movies like “Wild Style,” “Beat Street” and “Breakin.'” KayGee would DJ while Vin beatboxed and break-danced.
