Let’s do this dirty laundry, this dirty laundry
Let’s do this dirty laundry, this dirty laundry
When you’re soaked in tears for years, it never airs out
When you make pain look this good it never wears out
This dirty laundry, this dirty laundry

While my sister was on stage, killing it like a motherf-cker
I was enraged, feeling it like a motherf-cker
Bird in a cage, you would never know what I was dealing with
Went out separate ways, but I was happy she was killing it
Bittersweet, she was up, I was down
No lie, I feel good for her, but what do I do now?
Forget the records
Off the record, I was going through some bullshit
Post-survivor, she on fire, who wanna hear my bullshit?
Meanwhile, this nigga putting his hands on me
I swear y’all don’t know the half of this industry

Let’s do this dirty laundry, this dirty laundry

The Breakfast Club of Power 105 welcome's Golden Era Hip-Hop trio act Naughty By Nature. Notably absent: Vin Rock! What???? Man. Somehow, I'm hoping they work through this. The Naughty has been through drama before (in fact, Kay Gee mentioned his 'issues' with Treach above) and got back on track. Watch the interview and explanation of the bad blood - from [mostly] Treach's point of view. Wonder how long Kay can stay neutral in all this though.

What a mess. Keep watching with part 2 of the interview after the jump. So Naughty By Nature... the full trio... is booked for a show at The Roots' Picnic this summer? With the sucker punches and slick talk flying about, we'll see. ...READ MORE
