History
Juggaknot's debut studio album, Clear Blue Skies, was released on the vinyl-only New York independent Fondle 'Em Records in 1996.[5] It is considered an underground classic by critics such as Exclaim! and HipHopDX.[6][7][8][9] It was re-released as Re:Release with 11 bonus tracks in 2003.[10]
In 2006, the group released a studio album, Use Your Confusion, which features guest appearances by Sadat X, Wordsworth, and Slick Rick, among others.[11] It was released through Amalgam Digital after a deal was signed with the independent label.[12]
In 2015, the group released a collection of previously unreleased tracks, titled Baby Pictures (C. 1989-1993).[13]
