    Guru's voice is probably my favorite voice in the rap genre. Even a few words are enough for him to leave a mark on a song.

    Good pick! The title is akin to saying, "worst case scenario, [my people still come first]", "no matter what happens,...", "whatever happens,...", or, "through thick or thin...", it's a declaration of loyalty.

    The DJ does the scratching and sometimes produces the track as well, like DJ Premier for example. On the other hand, for a duo like Eric B and Rakim, Eric does the scratching, and Rakim (or other producers) makes the beat. In this case, DJ Babu handled the scratches once Alchemist made the beat.

    Classic underground track. Evidence and the Alchemist are best friends. You should check out their Step Brothers project - Lord Steppington. Or even better yet check out the track they did on the new Gangrene record. Magic Dust

    There's also a version that features an additional verse by Mobb Deep's Havoc which is a nice touch since since they sampled one of his lines for the chorus.
    And Babu is definitely one of the most famous turntablism DJs from that era. The Beat Junkies are a household name and one of the top turntablism crews on the West Coast.
    The sample they used is William Bell's I Forgot To Be Your Lover, a great song from the Stax Records catalog that was very popular with hip hop producers back then.

    I just want to quickly correct an error that the bio you read made: it samples "Survival Of The Fittest" by Mobb Deep, not Gang Starr. RIP to both Guru and Prodigy.

    saw them live in a small club in germany early 2000s. great performance, great vibes. The stage was only about hip high and after the show the lights went on and they just sat down, signed autographs, chatted, drank and smoked some weed. super layed back. still got a pack of the red Smoking rolling papers signed by Babu somewhere in a box^^

    About the title, I think the more common phrase is "worse comes to worst" but it just means that something, or everything in general is really bad. When situation goes from bad to worse to as bad as possible, they're still gonna look out for their people.

    Hell yeah! It's about time, I'm surprised this wasn't requested a long time ago. I read somewhere The Alchemist produced most of the album. The whole album is dope, they even have a dj song, rap groups rarely do that now." This Way" feat Kanye is good too, you might even like it better than this one.

      "This way" is not my favorite. It's kind of a pop song. You should start with their first album with songs like The Platform and Work the Angles.

    This is such a good track, but Work The Angles is the definitive Dilated Peoples’ song.
    The Worst Comes To Wordt video is a great time capsule for west coast underground hip hop at the turn of the century. They filmed a shot at the WTC days before 9/11.
    Lastly ABB Records stood for “Always Bigger and Better”.
