 * First things I'd recommend doing
 * Make the references format consistent: place the refs in an appropriate template, link the publisher, use "ref name" if the ref has been used more than once.
 * All information mentioned in the lead should be also discussed in the body of the article. I can't find where is the stuff about the band being included in the Hall of Fame nor in Rolling Stone's lists.
 * Avoid using superlatives like old school hip hop classic, striking video, etc.
 * The lead could be expanded a bit; there isn't a single sentence about the bands history.
 * Nothing unusual with the photos and samples. All the images are from Commons, and the audio file has a proper license, length and sound quality.

Quick failing: Here are several reasons why the candidate shouldn't be promoted.
 * Broad in its coverage — The article is not well researched. The band's first three albums are covered in a few sentences, with no explanation about the recording process, touring, etc. The legacy section could also use some expansion. For a group inducted in Rock and Roll's Hall of Fame and listed on Rolling Stone's 100 Greatest Artists of All Time, there is a lot of things that need to be adressed.
 * As pointed above, the lead must be expanded in a way that covers all the main aspects. In other words, this contradicts criteria 1b.
