I set individuals of the group apart, as there's a lot of genius work done by various people as solo acts. As a group they aren't producing albums about Hurricane Katrina, the rise of HIV and AIDS in women, or about renewable energy. It has been what, at least 10 years since they've put out an album? Without ODB it just wouldn't be the same anyway...
The big difference is they aren't attention whores about what they do like Kanye is, plus they dress better.
