  Digital Underground - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Digital Underground is an alternative rap group hailing from Oakland, California.
Heavily influenced by the various funk bands of the 1970s, Digital Underground sampled their music frequently, which quickly became a defining element of west-coast rap.
Saafir was also a member of Digital Underground and went on to release several solo albums.

 Digital Underground
Digital Underground built most of their music from P-Funk samples and developed a similarly weird sense of style and humor, highlighted by {Shock-G}'s outrageous costumes and the whole band's parade of alter egos.
Digital Underground followed Sex Packets in early 1991 with This Is An EP Release, their first recording to feature rapper Tupac Shakur.
By the time Digital Underground delivered their third album, The Body-Hat Syndrome in late 1993, hip-hop had become dominated by gangsta rap, particularly the drawling G-funk of Dr. Dre, which ironically was heavily indebted to Clinton.

 TrouserPress.com :: Digital Underground
Digital Underground made its first mark in 1988 with a couple of funny (ha-ha, not funny peculiar) independent singles: "Your Life's a Cartoon" and "Doowutchyalike." By 1990, they were signed to Tommy Boy and ready to unload a sack of conceptual metaphors.
The free-floating Underground expanded — no less than 18 rhymers appear on Sons of the P — and attempted to consolidate itself as the rightful heirs of Clinton's throne on its second album.
On the other hand, Humpty Hump's manic "The Return of the Crazy One," the insinuating "Digital Lover" (in which Humpty argues "You need a Biblical brother!"), the gorgeous "Wussup wit the Luv" and all the appearances of young Oakland rhymer Saafir the Saucee Nomad are standout moments in a massive undertaking.

This followed on the heels of "Underwater Rimes", a 1987 (see 1987 in music) single that became a surprise hit in the Netherlands.
"Doowutchyalike" was an underground American hit in 1989 (see 1989 in music), released after signing with Tommy Boy Records[?].
Digital Underground's third LP, The Body-Hat Syndrome[?] (1993, 1993 in music) was a commercial failure and preceeded a three year break before Future Rhythm[?], which sold even more poorly.

 CD Baby: DIGITAL BEAT: Underground Industry
Digital Beat sound is full of driving filtered rhythms, loops and acid synthlines.
I have been a fan of Digital Beat for some time now and I can say that there is no comparison between a 128kb mp3 and this album.
The sound is what it claims to be a DIGITAL BEAT and delivers a high quality driving electronic sequential sound, but particular songs reach beyond this and reach an Ethereal Digital Beat this is where I think the group (Digital Beat- is a one man project: editors note) is starting to reach its true potential.

 In the Gulf, Dissidence Goes Digital (washingtonpost.com)
KUWAIT CITY -- Rola Dashti's cell phone buzzed on the heady evening of March 7, hours after she had helped lead the largest demonstration for women's voting rights in Kuwait's history, a clamorous protest that ended when hundreds of activists were expelled from parliament for shouting from the gallery.
In this roiling political spring of protest and debate about democracy in repressive Arab countries, cell phone text messaging has become a powerful underground channel of free and often impolite speech, especially in the oil-rich Persian Gulf monarchies, where mobile phones are common but candid public talk about politics is not.
Saudi exiles and Islamic activists waged an underground war of faxed pamphlets during the early and mid-1990s.

 Review - Digital Underground: Playwutchyalike (Rhino)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Only two years after Tommy Boy released their Digital Underground comp, No Nose Job, Rhino chimes in with theirs, a 14 track affair that is dynamite, to be sure, but a pointless purchase for owners of the Tommy Boy disc.
Whether the repeats are exactly the same mixes is another question, but it would have been nice to have some coverage of Digital's post-Tommy Boy career, which may not be considered their prime, but still produced some cool music.
That aside, let me speak directly to people who don't own No Nose Job and are thinking a Digital Underground collection might be in their future.

The accessibilty of digital video, and the new means to present and distribute it--namely the film festival circuit and an internet hungry for "content"--promises to allow video to finally achieve what it has hoped to do all along: bring movie making to the people.

Digital video is taking the independent filmmaking community by storm, with some of the most daring, risky and unorthodox work being produced with the new format.

 OnMilwaukee.com Sound Check: Old-school Digital Underground show starts late, finishes strong
It wasn't just the sampled hooks that evoked memories of a George Clinton concert -- the Underground, led by Shock G (aka Humpty Hump) were all over the place -- but mostly in a good way.
Just like the slow-building pace of a Parliament show, it took the Underground a little while to get going -- but by the end of their set, they were in full stride.
The group floated between their old hits, like "Gut Fest '89," "The Humpty Dance," "Kiss You Back" and "Doowutchyalike" – but also spent a fair amount of time joking with the audience, showcasing their talented Milwaukee DJ, DJ Nu-Stylez, and letting a few other rappers freestyle a bit.

The Underground is a collective of rappers, singers and musicians dedicated to the art of the good time - usually clever, occasionally political, frequently offensive, they end up somewhere between P-Funk and 2 Live Crew.
Once again, the lyrics are hit and miss: "No Nose Job" is a witty jab at fl assimilationists, and "Heartbeat Props" has a heartfelt message of solidarity, but "Good Thing We're Rappin'" is an overlong dirty-talk rant.
The comic book that comes with the CD explains how the Underground is so busy getting laid and working on side projects that it's almost impossible for them to get any DU work done.

Early one Tuesday morning in July 1996, Dorothy Sherman was doing what her rock-star clients hire her to do: getting the goods on music bootleggers.
Sherman is founder and president of GrayZone, a Brooklyn-based research firm that works with performers, record labels, a tangle of government agencies, and industry groups such as the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) to ferret out those digital desperadoes who electronically distribute unauthorized musical performances.
Thanks to rapid developments in online audio technology, the efficient digitization and distribution of unauthorized music threatens to radically reorder an infrastructure that major labels have spent decades creating.
