I've never heard a full album of theirs but what I've heard they are good.
Plus I saw them live on the Jayz black album tour. They were playing the beats for his songs when he wouldn't use a dj. They played all the songs sick too.

Back in the summer of 1998, I saw them at a club here in NYC (The Tunnel...it's closed down, but it was like REALLY big back in the day.). One of the opening acts was a scrawny white guy that nobody had ever heard of. His name was like M&M or something like that. I wonder whatever happened to him...lol
Then, they came to my college my senior year (2002). It was awesome because the crowd was predominantly white, so they started playing rock songs, like Dave Matthews Band, Nirvana, Metallica, etc. The crowd was going crazy.
Then, earlier this year, I saw them at Radio City Music Hall with Nas, Talib Kweli, Common, Big Daddy Kane, and DJ Jazzy Jeff. Needless to say, it was an awesome show
