Naughty By Nature – IIcons

Naughty By Nature
Artist: Naughty By Nature
Title: IIcons
Label: TVT
Rating: 5/10

You know Naughty By Nature by the line of hits they left in their wake in the early/mid-’90’s. But their last few releases have been less than stellar. This time around Iicons comes with fourteen tracks and all but five are with guests. Odd for a group that has been so self-contained.

Iicons:
“What You Wanna Do” – Featuring Pink – Pink makes the song above average.
“Swing Swang” – Not at the level of previous anthems. Still hot.
“Family Tree” – Finally a track that sounds like an original.

Average Joe:
“Iicons” – The title tracks is weak.
“Feels Good” – Featuring 3LW – good radio single.
“Red Light” – Featuring Queen Latifah

Limp Larry:
“Rock & Roll” – Features Redman and Method Man – Nothing but the f-word to attempt to make up for weak lyrics.
“Let Me Find Out” – What happened to the power?

It’s unfortunate, but Naughty has lost their touch.
