    Reading through the comments, it turns out I’ve heard quite a few of their songs, and enjoyed none of them. I don’t get how they were so popular.

      Because they were a perfect mix of Punk and Hip Hop. It just fit right into the late 80s and 90s.

      They have a historical importance in the hip-hop realm notably when it comes to sampling. See the album Paul’s Boutique.

        Ah, I see. So they’re kinda like the Beatles, historically significant, but not actually that good.
