	De La Soul - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		De La Soul is a massively influential hip hop group, hailing from Long Island, New York.
		De La Soul's second album, De La Soul Is Dead (1991) was a much darker album.
		In 1993, De La Soul performed together with Teenage Fanclub for the soundtrack of Judgment Night, "Fallin".

	3 Feet High and Rising - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		With the exception of "Do As De La Does", there is no profanity on the album, in stark contrast to most hip hop albums from the time period.
		The contestants (the three members of De La Soul plus producer Prince Paul) are asked four questions by the host (Al Watts), and their attempts at answering are scattered about the album.
		De La Soul in collaboration with Nike Skateboarding created two SB Dunks (one low, one high) based on the 3 Feet High and Rising album cover.

		De La Soul's demo tape "Plug Tunin'" came to the attention of Prince Paul, the leader and producer of the New York rap outfit Stetsasonic.
		De La Soul quickly were perceived as the leaders of a contingent of New York-based alternative rappers which also included A Tribe Called Quest, Queen Latifah, the Jungle Brothers, and Monie Love; all of these artists dubbed themselves the Native Tongues posse.
		De La Soul subsequently signed their AOI label to Sanctuary Urban (run by Beyonce's father Matthew Knowles), and released The Grind Date in October 2004.

		Though their style initially earned both critical raves and strong sales, De La Soul found it hard to sustain their commercial momentum in the '90s as their alternative rap was sidetracked by the popularity of considerably harder-edged gangsta rap.
		De La Soul formed while the trio -- Posdnuos (born Kelvin Mercer, August 17, 1969), Trugoy the Dove (born David Jude Jolicoeur, September 21, 1968), and Pasemaster Mase (born Vincent Mason, March 27, 1970) -- were attending high school in the late '80s.
		De La Soul subsequently signed their AOI label to Sanctuary Urban (run by Beyonce's father and Prince's Trust Ambassador Matthew Knowles), and released The Grind Date in October 2004.

		De La Soul is in the unique position of having influenced a generation of hip-hop artists with truly original albums like Three Feet High & Rising and De La Soul Is Dead, and still continuing to resonate with contemporary fans with more recent albums like Stakes Is High and Art Official Intelligence: Mosaic Thump.
		As has always been the case, De La Soul are constantly reinventing themselves, and Mosaic Thump (AOI 1) unveiled a new sensibility for the group: emphasizing songwriting, collaborating with a number of different artists, and introducing new producers into the fold.
		De La Soul is Dead (1991) was just as creative in its follow-up response, as the group used the album to refuse being pigeonholed into any one style or image.

		Prince Paul produced De La Soul's debut album, 3 Feet High and Rising, which was released in the spring of 1989.

		Four years later, De La Soul initiated what promised to be a three-album series with the release of Art Official Intelligence: Mosaic Thump; though reviews were mixed, it was greeted warmly by record buyers, debuting in the Top Ten.

		For years, De La Soul has being trying to shake its "hippy-hop" image earned after its classic debut Three Feet High and Rising, but De La Soul members Pos, Trugoy, and Maceo have resisted the temptation to exaggerate their gangster image to compensate for their undeserved flower child reputation.
		Like De La Soul in the '80s, Zonk's most enjoyable quality was that it seemed like they were having a good time along with the crowd on stage.
		Of course, De La Soul doesn't attract the typical hip-hop crowd and, as expected, the Middle East seemed to be filled with people drinking who probably used legal id. to get a wristband.

	De La Soul Mp3 Albums Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		De La Soul burned out on their own hype fast, and their dark, strange second album is a counter-blast to their image and hip-hop culture: perverse, dissatisfied, sometimes brilliant, sometimes out of control.
		De La Soul's third album renounces the pop crossover, mocking wit, and conceptual sprawl of their earlier work in favor of a relaxed, sober set of individual tracks.
		De La should simply get a slap on the wrist for this, but we shouldn't be calling for their heads.

	IGN: The Grind Date Review
		That said, De La Soul hasn't changed much -- that is, as long as you recognize that these aren't the Daisy Age plugs who goofed around about potholes in their lawn and getting kicked out of the house -- but their attitude towards what they're doing has snapped back into attack mode.
		From the beginning chant about De La being the past, present and future, to the abrasive final track (which slams into the end of the disc like the end of a life), the main point of the album seems to be confirming the group's place in rap history.
		And going out, after De La ended its last record (and has concluded a few of its albums previously) with its most compelling and stirring track yet in "Trying People", the snarling "Rock Co.Kane Flow" turning off this album is a slug of fearsome caliber.

		De La Soul, the three man crew that stuck two fingers up to the hard-hitting 'gangsta' rhymes of some of the more popular groups around in their heyday.

	De La Soul: Art Official Intelligence: Mosaic Thump - PopMatters Music Review
		The chorus to a song on De La Soul's new album, Art Official Intelligence: Mosaic Thump is a great summary of what could be their credo: "You can do whatever you want, whatever you like, it's your own life." They've always been staunch individualists, doing whatever they like despite trends or fads.
		De La also get big points for bringing back old school legend Busy Bee, and for doing a song with Freddie Foxxx, one of the edgiest MCs around.
		De La meant Art Official Intelligence to be one three-disc album, but their label got them to stretch it into three separate releases.

	De La Soul: De La Soul Is Dead ---Ink Blot Magazine
		Tired of the "hip-hop hippies" references, De La did everything in their artistic power to combat the stereotype.
		But while exasperation following a blockbuster debut success isn't that rare, the creativity that De La found in that bitterness certainly is. By constructing a theme in which three fans listen to the album and level criticism against it throughout, De La exhibit extraordinary foresight by actually pre-empting their critics.
		De La were determined to shake its Three Feet shadow, but the beats were not sacrificed - there are several ass-shakers anchored in obscure samples.
