82. THE FULL STORY BEHIND DE LA SOUL (THREE FEET HIGH & RISING, DE LA SOUL IS DEAD, BUHLOONE MINDSTATE, STAKES IS HIGH, ...AND THE ANONYMOUS NOBODY, ETC)
from Discograffiti · host David Gebroe
De La Soul has one of the best catalogs in the history of hip hop, but due to legal problems with Tommy Boy, the majority of it’s been unavailable on streaming services. In late 2021, the group members announced that the catalog would finally be coming to streaming, but it took a year and a half for it to come to pass. Today's the day!! We’ll learn about all the crucial elements that producer Prince Paul brought to the table, the mid-’60s pop band that set the sample wars in motion, and the rap album mainstay that was both invented and perfected on their debut…not to mention Prince Paul’s one-of-a-kind hip-hopera!
