There's no missing Sadat X when he's in a track; that voice is iconic.

[@adamgordon2572]

His voice is DEFINITELY iconic 🔥🔥

They were all on point😁👍 Sadat X, Grand Puba, The Large Professor and the man Lord Finesse😁👍

Lord finesse is a god that verse is slept on

[@SloppyBalboa]

Facts !!!!! My all time favorite, his rhymes and the way he flows so smooth over any beat be so hard to wrap my head around. I have yet to hear one single verse he’s ever spit that was mediocre . He’s an all time great no doubt

[@nirajlal9469]

The Awakening was no joke...should have been better promoted! IMO, it is a top 5 all time album...it was promoted as an EP I believe during its initial release hence didn't get as much recognition as it should have.

[@henewcom50]

While The Awakening had it's stand out tracks it wasn't one of his best. His first album The Funky Technician was one of his best and his follow up The Return Of The Funkyman😁👍 The Funky Technician introduced AG of Showbiz and AG😁👍 The Return Of The Funkyman introduced Percee P and Big L😁👍

[@mutapamighty6171]

Large Pro killed 4real. His energy is unmatched

[@mutapamighty6171]

Large Pro s delivery is unmatched on this joint.

[@jimbowan]

This jam brings back so many good memories!! All solid verses, X starts us off with some slamming vibe Large P murders it and Grand P drops one of his best verses IMO, Finesse comes in at the end with his smooth flow he had across this whole album. One of my faves. DITC

[@beachcity562]

Classic Lord finesse murder it

[@jacksonkelley603]

Sadat's verse introduced me to a whole new world of hip-hop.

Lord Finesse & Grand Puba should do an album together, they kept it 💯

[@stephenprice6792]

Over the past 5 years DITC has surpassed The Lox and Mobb Deep as my all time groups/movements. Beats, rhymes, quality mc’s, longevity.

[@craigdavis5407]

Very Underrated Song!!!!

[@macmillion8516]

Sadat X always sets the tone for a jam, not always the best verse but always dope. When he came with ' Punks jump up to get beat down' and all those mixtape features we knew Brand Nubian would be good without Puba. No diss at all to Puba!

[@kni9839]

Golden Age of Hip-Hip youngstas!!!

[@AndrewClawson19]

Lord Finesse is my GOAT. It’s just so hard to say someone can top him

[@aerialpenn8849]

Damn this joint is crazy. I swear I saw KRS and Camp Lo in here. Lord Finesse is an absolute animal lyrically. Easily the best producer rapper ever.

[@forcedtohaveahandle]

Havoc from Mobb Deep is the best producer MC

[@aerialpenn8849]

@@forcedtohaveahandle lord Finesse better than Havoc as a producer and a rapper. Every dope Mobb Deep beat I assume Alchemist made it.

Lets argue over opinions😂😂

[@khameronsmith108]

@Valentino Adam Finesse produced this whole album

[@8stepstoperfection7734]

KRS One was there. He was on the piano. I don't know where Camp Lo is, though. But I see Big L, Fat Joe, A.G., and I think Diamond D is on the drums and I think DJ Evil Dee is on the turntable.
