Biography

Digable Planets

Was an American alternative hip hop trio based in New York City, composed of Ishmael “Butterfly” Butler (from Seattle), Mary Ann “Ladybug Mecca” Vieira (from Silver Spring, Maryland) and Craig “Doodlebug” Irving (from Philadelphia).

Butler and Irving met in Philadelphia in the late 1980s, whilst Viera and Irving had been a couple whilst attending Howard University. Originally from Seattle, Butler was interning at Sleeping Bag Records in New York and would visit his grandmother in Philadelphia where Irving was living and rapping with an outfit called the Dread Poets Society (later known as the 7 OD’s). Despite recording under the name Digable Planets, the initial demos featured only Butler. After a brief stint with two other members, Butler began collaborating with Irving and Vieira in 1989.
