Hailing from New Rochelle, Brand Nubian stepped into the '90s with a politically-charged agenda. Putting their faith in the teachings of the 5% Nation of Islam, Grand Puba, Sadat X, Lord Jamar and DJ Alamo released a classic with One for All—a debut project that spawned the Edie Brickell & New Bohemians-sampling anti-crack message "Slow Down”.
