 able Planets burst onto the music scene in 1993 with their Grammy-winning 
 single\, &ldquo\;Rebirth Of Slick (Cool Like Dat).&rdquo\; Made up of Ishm
 ael "Butterfly" Butler\, Craig &ldquo\;Doodlebug&rdquo\; Irving\, and Mary
  Ann &ldquo\;Ladybug Mecca&rdquo\; Vieira\, the pioneering trio carved out
  a uniquely appealing style of jazz-informed hip hop that catapulted their
  first single to the 15th spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.<br><br>Shor
 tly after\, Digable Planets followed up with their debut album\, Reachin&r
 squo\; (A New Refutation of Time And Space)\, an ambitious offering that P
 itchfork praised as &ldquo\;a world within a world\, complete with its own
  language and monuments.&rdquo\; Melding jazz samples\, and complex rhymes
  that touched on everything from the nuances of city life ("Where I&rsquo\
 ;m From") to abortion rights ("La Femme Fetal")\, Reachin&rsquo\; was a ri
 ch and vibrant artistic statement as well as a huge commercial success (RI
 AA certified gold). The group celebrated the 30th anniversary of Reachin&r
 squo\; in 2023.<br><br>Digable Planets quickly followed up in 1994 with Bl
 owout Comb\, a bold and colorful meditation on Black liberation. While the
  album did not initially attain the immediate commercial successes of Reac
 hin&rsquo\;\, the 13-track sophomore opus has gone on to age beautifully\,
  influencing future generations of hip hop heads\, young jazz musicians\, 
 and Afrofuturists. In celebration of the three decades passed since the re
 lease of the landmark second album\, Digable Planets\, once again\, takes 
 their full five-piece band on the road for the Blowout Comb 30th Anniversa
 ry Tour\, now touching North American cities from coast to coast. "Togethe
 r\, we're able to take all of the music\, which is\, you know\, a bunch of
  disparate samples from here and there\, and really represent that era of 
 music in an updated way with one foot in the past\, but another foot firml
 y with a sneaker on sprinting into the future with a lot of new sounds and
  a lot of new concepts\," said Digable Planets founder Butterfly.<br><br><
